Strong names? For boys?

To go with an odd surname? (Storm).

We liked Ash/er. It doesn't really go.
We quite like Elliott, Rex (too doglike for me, though), Xander, Caleb, Conrad and Kai (Kai Rooney?). I'm aware that not all actually fit our description! Any ideas?

I think your last name is fab by the way!

Thanks everyone Thanks

Can't use Richard as that is my ex's (and my eldest DC's dad's) name! Y

Cameron Storm is lovely. I like Gabriel too, not Gabe as a nn or Riel, but Gabriel without an nn is great. Lucas is a cool name. Kyle is the name of my foster brother, so I like it but don't think I can use it. Thanks

Christopher is nice. Can't use it because of DH'a uncle but I love it, especially with the nickname Kit! Now I just need to convince the uncle to change his name so we can use it...

Benjamin and Alexander are great. I love both of them! Benjamin has loads of nn options (Benjy, Ben and Jamie are my favourites) and I like Alexander because of Xander as a nickname, and just because it's generally a great name.

Smile Thanks again. So far Cameron, Gabriel, Lucas, Benjamin and Alexander have been added to the very short short list!

Conrad and storms, I didn't make the connection! Thanks!

Don't think I like Magnus, he'd be teased (around here, at least)? Lachlan is nice, Lachlan Storm has a ring to it. Fergus isn't for us. I love Callum, Jake, Lewis, Leon and Adam. They're brilliant Thanks

Levi Storm, also added to the list!

Mortified we weren't going to use a middle name, but they definitely have a ring to it, so I'm being persuaded! They flow perfectly. Smile
