Hello all,

I'm trying to decide on boys names and really like the idea of using last names as first names.

So far i have shortlisted:

Jackson
Hunter
Carter
Avery
Baker
Smith
Paxton
Harrison
Mason

What do you think? Any other suggestions?

I quite like surnames as first names, they're always quite strong and solid and timeless

Archer.

I wouldn't use Smith, it's such a common name anyway.

I work for a few people who have first names as surnames iyswim. They are constantly irritated by people who call them by the wrong one!!

Some of these could make your kid sound like a law firm tbh.
