    Looking for something a bit different, and need three names...

    Hello,
    DH and I are looking for some different boys and girls names that have a bit of meaning behind them...we are also trying to keep away from the 10 ten popular names...and we need three parts to the names as DS has three names so we want to try and be equal...what we have come up with so far is...

    Argus Jobe Hunter (boy)

    and

    Harper Matilda Freya (girl)

    Any thoughts or other suggestions? I'm not sure about Argus - I like Angus, but we have Angus cattle on the farm so that rules that out, and my great grandfather was a journalist for 'The Argus' newspaper, so I kind of like that, but I wonder if it is too different?

    We were thinking 'Hunter' as the first name for a boy, but with an 'Archer' already we thought that might just be a bit too conflict/war driven

    Please suggest away....

    Personally I think Argus and Archer are too close for siblings names so therefore I wouldn't use it for that very reason alone, sorry.

    I prefer Jobe as a first name instead and that is still very unusual.

    Love love love Harper.

    Some other alternative for boys names that are a bit unusual are:

    Mason
    Jonas
    Jonah
    Reef
    Zane
    Taine
    Tana
    Benson
    Eden
    Kailan
    Callan.

    Good luck!

    A friend of mine has a Hunter for their DD and their son is Ryder - I think it goes together well.

    jonty argus hunter?

    think the boys names are a bit similar
    but maybe use argus as one of the middle names, since it has that lovely connection

    I dont think having angus cattle should put you off using the name if you love it. I also didnt make the Hunter/Archer connection till you made reference to it.

    What about Roman? I may be biased lol but i think its a strong name thats not common. Im not really good with boys names. Kuga, Xavier, Eamon??

    Girls names

    Sitarrah
    Soraya
    Ocean
    Sapphire
    Vienna
    Serenity
    Briella
    Chardonnay
    Chanel
    Armani
    Milan (could use for boy too)
    Praise
    Blessing
    Truce (could use for boy)
