Could we also have a beautiful boys' names thread?

I'm loving the beautiful girls' names thread. My DD's names have both come up several times so I guess I maybe like names that could be described as 'beautiful,' but I'm having a boy this time! Not sure if 'beautiful' is quite the right word, but, for example, I love the names Raphael, Rafferty, Caspian, Sebastian etc.

What are your favourite 'beautiful' boys' names?

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

But mostly, Soren. I find it so beautiful that it makes my heart go a bit funny slinks away as may have exposed myself as odd

My beautiful DS’s name has come up twice (once in the first reply!) I adore his name. I love Robin for a boy.

Great thread! I've had a look but can't see the beautiful girls name thread, can someone link? I'm struggling with girls suggestions at the moment.

My favourite boys names are Eden, Reuben and Raphael. All beautiful, strong names.
I also think Stephen, Michael and Hector are rather lovely if not actually beautiful.

pipilangstrumpf · 09/12/2017 10:56

Hector has such an unfortunate meaning (to hector) and shortform (Heck) that I can't find it beautiful

My DS is Reuben and I adore it. Thankfully it’s not very popular where we live and we’ve only met one other. I also like the name Fabian.

Lowen
Luca
Laurie

This is such an old thread I’m sorry! But I can’t believe how crazy this is. I had my baby in March, and called him Lowen, but these 3 names were on our short list for what we would use when he was born. I was convinced my entire life I’d use a completely different name and had never even heard of these 3 names before and it’s so crazy that you put them together all these years ago😅😅! Probably means nothing to you but it gave me goosebumps!
