I need help brainstorming!

[Rowellen]

That is true. So is Elisabeth & Jane & Michael

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

[Arimeh]

Eden is normal too :P

[Rowellen]

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".

[Rowellen]

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!

[Arimeh]

At the moment we are going through the bands we like. We are currently playing Fear Factory, but I don't think Burton C Bell can be changed into a name that goes with DH's surname LOL

[MrsFabuloso]

I can do uncommon names...


Cassian
Ryker
Oakley
Neo
Bennett
Cyan
Leander
Killian
DeAngello
Quade
Lysandro

[KittyK]

Of your three i like cylan the best no ideas though I'm having trouble with my own!! Hahahaha

[Ca Plane Pour Moi]

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.

[MrsFabuloso]

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'

[Amity]

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

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

[ladybirdflies]

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!

[sepata]

I really like quinnian.

From your suggestions I like cylan the best.

[peanutter]

Naphtali Asher.

That's the 5th and 7th sons of Jacob.



Oh drat. No they're not. Dan Gad. Not quite the same! And Benjamin was last so that doesn't really fit either.

Oh well!

[meow]

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

[luna moth]

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.

[Arimeh]

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

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.

[Beach Mama]

Having seen the ultrasound photos hun I would be searching for a boys name missy. I'm no help with different names with my two plain Jane kids but had to have a giggle at your post Xxx

[AndiE]

Cylan kind of reminds me of Cylon - the robot creatures from Battlestar Galactica.

Have to admit, Battlestar Galactica was what immediately came to mind when I saw this name written down too. Speaking of which, what about Starbuck for a name. Now he was a pretty cool dude ...

I like Cylan with a hard C, like Ky-lan. It's not really what you're asking but just my 2c worth. Good luck with the baby naming - by the time we got to our third boy we were almost out of inspiration, and he ended up being named after a kids' cartoon racing car ... and it suits him
