    I like Maxwell. I also like Bodhi but I think I'd spell it that way instead of Bohdi. I don't think it's feminine at all.

    Maxwell is one of those classic names though - and he'll never have to spell it. I hate having to spell my name every time - very annoying! Just my personal opinion but I'm not a fan of changing spellings of names just to 'be different'.

    I haven't read the whole thread but my partners cousin just had a boy and named him...

    Archie (as in short for Archer but they just used the shortened version)

    You wouldn't have problems with people spelling it wrong I don't think.
    Not sure what nn you would get but like someone else said, they come from the strangest places hehe.

    We're having the opposite problem we have a definate boys name but can't agree on any girls lol.

    I think Huxley is a cool name too. Nice and original. I don't like Maxwell (Get Smart) or Spencer (reminds me of Frank Spencer sorry)

    I liked Dustin (currently pregnant and also stuck for a boys name) but when I told my sister she laughed and said he would get called Rain Man or Tootsie at school. That made me laugh, but also put me right off the name.

    Some other suggestions I have are

    Malachi (Mal-a-kai)
    Marley
    Hugo
    Tex or Rex

    Good luck.

    Bodhi means 'enlightenment' too. Also has potential for nn of 'Bo'.
