We used the only name we both agreed on for DS which is Xander (not to everyones taste I know but we love it! I'm absolutely stuck as was convinced this one would be a girl and had those names sorted. I've got a few months in hand but need the time to bring DH round.
Names that I like that have all been vetoed
Max
Zachary
Isaac
Barnaby
Asa
Our surname begins with a C and is only one syllable so a 2 syllable name is preferable I think.
Any ideas?
We did like Finn/Finlay last time but too many about now, 4 at nursery in the toddler room!
Got to pop out now but will check back in a bit for inspiration.

I like Max best, and then Isaac.

Neither are as widely used as Zachary/Zac and Barnaby IME.

I only know girls called Asa.

Xander is lovely and goes well with Barnaby imo. Isaac is also nice. How about Xander and Quentin?

Asa is a girls name in Scandinavia and Max is very widely used already, so I'd avoid that.
