Due DC2 soon & am stumped for boys names. Neither DH nor I have any names we "love" and it's more of picking which names we "don't mind" as our dislike list is very long! We downloaded the kinder names app & matched on 1 name (DH says he isn't 100% on the name either-Max!)

We have lots of girls names but boys is another story.

Our list currently
Ethan (DH's suggestion)
Max
Flynn
I love the sound of the name Odin but don't think I can realistically use it!
I like Everett but DH is not at all keen

We both like Max but DH thinks it feels too short although we aren't so keen on Maximus/Maximilian/Maxwell etc. Would really appreciate any opinions on the few names above to hopefully help us along the way as we're at a standstill!

Ethan (DH's suggestion) - I know loads of Ethans. Not keen. Nothing wrong with it though.
Max - really like it.
Flynn - not keen
I love the sound of the name Odin but don't think I can realistically use it! - yes!
I like Everett but DH is not at all keen - no, just don't.

Oh sorry, didn't read your OP properly!
I really like Max as a stand-alone name.
Also love Flynn - it's a great name.

Nathan
Otis
Matthew (Matt as a shortened version similar to Max?)
Maddox shortened to Max?
Axel
Alexander

Like Max. I wouldn't feel the need to use a lengthened name on bc.
I don't like the others sorry.

I really like Ethan

you could also use Maxton or Maxim as longer versions of Max x
