I'm 23weeks pregnant & I'm struggling to find an unusual boys name that would go well with my 3yr old daughters name Willow! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated........so far we have Rafferty but i'm not 100% keen as the husband is!

Is it nature themes you're after?

Ahh Oakley!! I'm loving that, Thankyou......my Husband has Hunter on his list but I'm not sure, think it's a bit hard for a baby! Smile

I was going to say Hunter and Rowan too.

Forrester, Arthur, Dexter, Finn, Asher, Dara, Jude, Cooper, Fielder?

Not sure if you're going for nature or not! Hth

I do like the whole nature/magical type theme with names! Thanks so much for these idea, it really helps Smile

Must admit Hunter does remind me of the gladiator that sh*d Ulrika Johnson (allegedly)!

Haha that's exactly what my Sister said!! I'm not keen but it's becoming quite popular around our area lately, there's one at Willow's playgroup.

I thought Rafferty as soon as I saw the title of your thread!

Taliesin, Jasper, Tristan, Raven, Phoenix, Conall, Gawain, Lochlan, Avalon (unisex I think), Rohan, Silvan?

Raphael as alternative to Rafferty? Can be shortened to Rafe or Raffy.
