Help with boy's names! something unusual but not weird...

So I have a long list of girls names but only one boys name, that being Ezra.

I love it, DP isn't so sure. He likes Rowan.

I don't really want to go down the Tom, Harry, Jack or Oliver route as know a fair few...

Asa?

Not weird but unusual?
Pick something that is very recognisable but out of fashion. Peter, Robert, David etc.

Ezra is fab!

We met a baby Ralph yesterday which I thought was a gorgeous name. Quite like Sunny, Axel (It's scandanavian), Theo, Oskar, Remy.

My son is called Auron. It's said like Oar-ren and most people manage to say it correctly.

I love it and most people say it's a lovely original name but doesn't sound silly or made up. Always gets complimented.

My son has a friend named Esran, I think maybe middle eastern (we are in NZ) a mix of your 2 choices ☺

PeaceLoveAndJaffaCakes · 15/03/2016 08:31

Roman? Like Rowan but not. Rowan is my DS's middle name so I am biased towards it, obviously Grin
Gabriel, although fairly popular.
Reuben, as above.
Sacha?
Rufus
Cassius was on my list but DH thought it was too far out Sad
Idris
Do you like biblical names if you like Ezra?

I do like it, but have an ex called Rowan so not really suitable!
