I'm looking for some ideas - we find it very hard to pick names that we both like, especially boys names. We got there in the end last time, but still, can't call our kids A1 and A2 if they're both boys
These are a few I like
Bodhi - DH hates
Miles - DH hates
Zafir - DH hates (you see a pattern emerging...?)
Earnest - DH says ok. I'm not sure about this one. I think Ernie is cute though.
DH likes
Armin. I don't.
George. It's fine.
...and so on.
Hmm.... some that I like and trying to keep in similar style...
Griffin
Frank
Theodore
Sullivan
Otto
Xavier
Zavien
Zane
Ezekiel
DPs cousins baby's name is Zafir, turkish?
Lachlan
Charlie
Jayden
Jack
William
Thanks!
Theo....hmmm.
I just remembered another name we like - Nathaniel. We have a close friend by that name though and don't want to give him a big head.
Yeah, I think Zafir is arabic... might be wrong about that. I like Zaf for short. Doesn't matter anyway, not allowed.
We had so much trouble naming our DS, everything i liked DF hated and vice versa. Our boy didn't get a name until he was over 2 weeks (we knew he was going to be a boy from 18 week scan too), and our 3 year old was so confused because we called him something different every day!
I really liked Bodhi, he was called that for several days :)
We ended up with Leo Alexander, but also had:
Ajay (This was my favourite but a lot of people were negative about it being pronounced as initials A.J, it is actually pronounced A-Jai)
Morrison
Heath
Alexander
Jay
Jasper
DF's favourite boys name was Ariel (Seriously!) and Fabio was a close second...
We find out (hopefully) what we are having tomorrow and if he's a boy he will be Oscar. We already have an Anton. Good luck! I find boys names really hard :0
Oh I like Nathaniel :)
We've got traditional names on our lists.
William
Robert (which, combined is DSs name)
Steven
Patrick
Antoine (pronounced An-twon)
Charles
Alexander
Damien
That's about all we've got
How about Nate, Marcellus - if you weren't too sure about Nathaniel?
Cole
Taj
OHHHHHH love nathaniel honey...very nice and spesh

Johanas - John in German
Wolfgang
Emmett
Markas

LOL, it's a name I have always loved for some reason but DH thought it sounded too hillbilly :rolleyes:
Thanks everyone!
I have some more ideas to run by DH now.
I think I've figured out our problem though. I am drawn to names for aesthetic reasons, while DH seems to be more interested in names that have personal significance to him.
We have found boy names to be the hardest too.
Our final two are
Austin
Mason
The other 2 on our short list were Declan and Desmond
Names are hard!!!! DH and i did not agree on much.
I like Nathaniel / nate
Ideas are:
Byron
Jacob
Harrison
Ian
James
Edward
Fletcher
Fraser
Elliot
Oscar
Angus
Oliver
Lachlan
Thomas
Good luck

I met a little boy called Dashiel today, and it was shortened to Dash.
How about Zefram? Then you can still have Zaf if you wanted :)
Have you been watching star trek recently...?
thanks again guys
No actually, just hopelessly addicted :rofl: As soon as I saw Zafir, I thought 'Zefram!' :)
