    Interesting IS good. I do like interesting and unique names. Just maybe yours are too unique for me

    Hmm... Zenith IS like Kenneth! I never thought of that. I just keep thinking of Zen or Zenny for nicknames I just about die swooning

    There were some that weren't overly unique. They are probably not unique enough for you though lol I had Julian on my list - far too normal . I quite like Navin, Farlow & Pollard from my suggestions. Most of the rest are a bit out there for me.

    Hey jonah is a pretty "normal" name...... I do like Patrick too, but Offspring ruined that for me.

    I liked Keenan too, but we named our boxer Keenan and now I can't use it because even though we no longer have that dog - its our old dog's name LOL

    That is true. So is Elisabeth & Jane & Michael

    I wouldn't use an old pet's name either.

    Yes it is! Certainly it was normal enough that my DH allowed it into our top 10 and he was very strict on names being "normal".

    You could use the normal (ish) names that I will never use because DH thought they were too unusual. Archer, Reuben, Rowan, Wyatt, Xander, Lincoln, Orson, Rushton, Tyson, Bennett, Cade, Ramses, Samson, Wilson ... I could go on!

    Paedrag is an different spelling/pronunciation of Patrick. (DH isn't keen on Patrick either, but he thinks it's because I like Patrick Stewart which I do but that isn't the only reason.)

    I like Merlot or Grigiot as boy's names. DH was ok with Merlot and and less with what he said as "Grease" but it's Grigio pronounced with a silent io. Then he realised what I was doing when I suggested Gewürztraminer and said no.

    Marcarian may well get shortened to Marc, which is still a good name but doesn't fit with your other children's names as much.

    LOL, BTW, out of the names you have, I like in order-

    Cylan
    Macarien
    Azarius

    And I clearly didn't read your OP properly because I completely missed the bits about the numbers and a new stage...

    ETA, Neo means 'new'

    If you liked Keenan, what about Quinnian? Has a connection to "five"...

    I had Jupiter picked out for a boys name. It's like Mars very masculine in the planets. I also know a grown man and a 2yo named Jupiter!

    Nah DH doesn't like it.

    LBF - I said that I think its a feminine name, not that it is - no offence meant!

    I like Fin but DH doesn't.

    I can't seem to come across anything that "grabs" me you know? All I can think of is girls names. Maybe this one is really a girl.

    God I hope not for your sake!! Go get another scan just to be sure

    Maybe you could give him a girls name. Change the trend. Al the girls seem to be given boys names these days so why not mix it up a bit?!

    I like Marcarian best now. I think there are good spin off nicknames from it and it's groovy but sort of 'on trend' too, IYKWIM? And I love the constellation connection. Now I can see how it doesn't really compete with Mehkelti then I say go for it

    I know it's a bit bland for you, but what about Fin? French for End. Even as a middle name, which is where you seem to like to put middle names.
