Boys names - one syllable?

Hello,

I’m expecting my first baby in 5 weeks and am still nowhere closer to settling on a name.
I like boys names that are one syllable or end in a ‘y’ sound.

Any suggestion very much appreciated!

Here are some I like but partner doesn’t :/

Finn
Ritchie
Bailey
Cove
Oli

Thank you all so much!

That’s really helpful - thanks so much for all of the suggestions.

Out of interest - what do people think of the name Cove? Too out there?

What does your partner like? Might help us figure out an inbetweener name.
