My DS's middle name is River... DH chose it as he wanted something funky/trendy...?! I love it now and it really suits him. Good luck :)

Aston with an O

and Rhiannon.

Caiden and Cheyenne are way too American (and Brittney Spearsish American too, agree MouldyMoldie)

Rhys, Reese or Reece are nice. As is Logan.

Ashton and Rhiannon.

MouldyMoldie · 26/11/2010 08:43

Rhiannon is nice but the rest are a bit Britney Spears, sorry.

Psammead · 26/11/2010 08:43

Oh, I forgot to say - there is a website called Nymbler where you type in names you like and ot comes up with others in your naming style. Hope that helps!

Psammead · 26/11/2010 08:40

Aston is quite nice.
Rhiannon is not my personal cup of tea, but there is nothing wrong with it :)

How about:
Logan
Reece
Carter

Ruby
Caitlyn
Savannah

?

Good luck deciding - it's fun!

If you want something unusual and unique then go for John or Jane. You never meet a child with those names these days!

well my last name is already hyphenated and more than two surnames sounds silly. so we decided we give the baby his last name :)

cece · 25/11/2010 23:09

Rhiannon is OK but I really don't like the other names.

MelinaM · 25/11/2010 23:07

Ashton is the best from your list, Kaiden VERY popular at the mo!

Ineedsomesleep · 25/11/2010 07:40

Kaiden Clarke is alliteration, and I'll probably get flamed but I'm not a fan of alliteration in names but I know some people really like it.

Are you sure you are going to give the baby your boyfriend's last name and not yours?

clumsymumluckybaby · 24/11/2010 19:46

i like ashton from your listSmile...
im afraid i dont like any of the others,sorry

well my boyfriends surnames Clarke so i was worried about Kaiden sounding too rhyming :)

Summer, Kaiden/Kayden/Cayden is very popular at the moment and I think it might date very quickly. From your boys I probably would choose Aston as Astin looks a bit made up. Well as long as his last name won't be Martin that is Grin

Would probably choose Rhiannon from your girls list as I love the meaning of the name.

MJM86 · 24/11/2010 14:26

Hey there :)

Caden was one of our names but its so popular now we went off it.

Rhiannon was a name my little brother wanted us to consider :) but not my cup of tea.

Do all your names sound ok with your surname or boyfriends surname??
