So, we still haven't found 'the name' nothing has stuck out to us. We have been considering Grayson/Greyson, what are people's thoughts on this? And the the spelling? Is it like a fad name? We are open to suggestions!! The middle name will be Michael. Thank you in advance 🙂

I love greyson but it’s quiet American isn’t it (I’ve heard it on quite a few American shows)

I also like grey as nn

Have you heard of Grayson Perry...?

Dislike Greyson. When I hear it, I tend to think of it as a descriptive. As in, "here is my grey son". Grin Grey as a colour doesn't have the nicest associations.

I would also suggest Jason. You don't hear it much these days, and it's an ancient name with some cool stories associated with it (Jason and the Argonauts). Other suggestions:

David
Graham
Nathan
Logan
James
Xavier
Asa
Austin
Samson
Brandon
Heath
Evan

I don't think Greyson is a spelling in common usage. Grey on its own could be. Grayson is more typical and I think looks much nicer. Personally Grayson is a surname to me so Grey or Gray would be better.

I think Greyson/Grayson is very handsome. I know of a little Grayson.

Both spellings are nice. I always opted for Grayson but I think I'm leaning more towards Greyson now, idk why.

Don’t like it at all.

Like Michael but think Grayson/Greyson is pretty awful.

I love the name Grayson, it was our boys choice but we had a girl Smile

I like Michael, but Grayson is dreadful, whichever way you spell it.
Jason is nicer.
