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?

I think if you want to be different forget all those so called unique names. They're every where.
I agree with the poster who suggested Adam. Not many of them
Around now. Lacy and Adam. Got it a ring to it that. Other suggestions
Jimmy

It's hard to guess what would be popular where you live as names can be quit regional - I've not come across a Lacy for example.

How about:

Brodie
Ellis
Emerson
Dexter
Flynn
Saul
Zeke (Ezekiel)

Adam

So to condense all that waffle into something shorter, looking for name suggestions for a boy, that is modern, not too popular and quite cool. Also need to be mindful of shortened versions as he will inevitably be called the shortened version of anything. Hmm
