Second child due in a matter of weeks, is a boy! We already have a little girl called Lacy. When we named her we thought it was really different, and not many around.
There are now 3 in her class at nursery and hear it everywhere else too!
Always loved the name Jacob for a boy, but it seems this is CRAZILY POPULAR now too! Also, family members who know what we are expecting and the name we liked keep referring to him as baby Jake and tbh its grating my shit Grin
Others names we have liked are;
Zach ( I think Zachary is also on the cards just so he has a 'full name')
Mason (dh loves, I friggin hate)
I love Chase and Axel and Jonah. All of these have been laughed out by DH.
Cody is sort of floating around too.
Any suggestions please?

Zachary/Zach is nice, stick with that.

Cagney.

You know it makes sense Grin

Zach is a great name, I love it! I also love Max too. Prefer these to the others you suggested in the OP

Moojay · 03/08/2015 08:29

Thanks ladies
Max is a contender, but its looking a lot like Zachary at the moment, I'm slowly falling in love with it!

Mason and Lacy is too much too.l

mathanxiety · 03/08/2015 06:50

You can't have Chase and Lacy.

I don't like Mason or Cody (or Jett).

Is Max too mainstream?

John.

It's not even in the top 100 this year! So anyone wanting a unique name that's not common.... Don't bother with Axl or Viper or Rexx

Just use john.

I have an Axel so a bit partial. Get lots of positive feedback from my terribly polite friends but... there are three baby Axels where we live. All half Swedish.

We also considered Casper, Elmer and Gustav.

How about Seth?

BeautifulBatman · 02/08/2015 08:14

Zachary is lovely. No to the rest.

SanityClause · 02/08/2015 08:13

What about Jago?

Also, Zac could be short for Isaac, as well as Zachary Quack.

LiverMummy25 · 02/08/2015 08:08

I like Axel, how about Brett or Carter?

Moojay · 02/08/2015 07:58

Some great suggestions! Love Jett, DH just vetoed it Angry
Not keen on Adam, we're in a rather west country part of the world so his name would be shortened to Ad.
Steven is the middle name.
Love Jacoby with Coby for short!

A friend of mine (in NZ) has a Jett, which I didn't like at first but has really grown on me. Fits your criteria, I think??

chocolatedonut · 02/08/2015 03:58

Zach and Mason are very popular where I'm from. I know off hand about 5 of each born in the past 2 years.
