Boys name to go with Willow??

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!

Griffin
Rowan
Merlin

Thank you for this thread. I was inhospitable having a small operation and to keep my mind off that I was thinking about this !

Anyway I came up with Walter.

But after reading these lovely names there are much better suggestions

Mollydoggerson · 14/01/2013 19:38

Emmet is also nice.

LittleDonkin · 14/01/2013 18:04

My first thoughts were Elliott or Elijah

Mollydoggerson · 14/01/2013 17:40

Eben was my first thought. Then maybe Eden. How about Dara?

I have a Rowan and I get lots of compliments on the name.

For some reason, Harley popped into my head first... not sure why, because it's not a name I much care for!

James
Benjamin
Franklin
Anthony

lollydollydrop · 14/01/2013 02:04

Bear
Forrest
Orion
River
Arlo
Dexter
Ocean
Storm
Aspen
Heath
Laken
Jasper
Zach
Rocky
Linden

Have we had Beck? I love it.

choccyp1g · 13/01/2013 20:33

Ashley or Ashleigh to follow the tree theme?

damppatchnot · 13/01/2013 20:29

Arargon

Or if not that brave Ash or Toby

StellaNova · 13/01/2013 20:25

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

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?

Yfronts · 13/01/2013 19:50

Rafe
Rufus
