Mysterious/nature names for boys?

59 replies

Ginger10 · 06/01/2017 20:09

I love nature/fairy names for girls - Autumn, Faye, Violet, Rowan, Robin, Ivy, etc.

For boys I like names that are similar and a bit mysterious. Don't like Rowan or Robin for a boy! Any ideas? We don't like the names to be unisex for a boy (hence Rowan, Robin, Wren, etc. are all out)

Thank you!

I second Heath(cliffe). To me it's very brooding/mysterious.

Kate Bush's fault that
