Second baby boy is due very soon and we cannot come up with a name.. It seems as though I’ve read every thread/name list/suggestions out there and nothing feels right.

I prefer names that aren’t overly common, but equally not completely unheard of. I prefer stronger sounding over softer names.

We’re both teachers which just seems to add to the difficulty of choosing something unique and untainted 😂

my current list is:

Arne (pronounced Arnie)
Rome
Mason
Conan

my husband isn’t overly convinced about any of these,

His suggestions are,

Sonny
Brooks
Joey
Freddie
Seb

And I’m not overly convinced on these…

we seem to keep circling and circling.

Much prefer Dh names especially Seb and Sonny.

What about Luca.
