Boy names to go with Nina?

We’ve recently found out that we’re going to have a little boy. Very exciting but we’re finding boy names much harder to agree on. Plus we have lots of boys in our family so lots of names have already been taken. We like more traditional names, prefer those that aren’t super popular but also aren’t “out there”. You can probably see why we’re having such a problem 😂. We also have a little girl called Nina so any boys names which would go with that would be great!

Any feedback would be appreciated as we really are stuck!! 😂.

Thanks xx

The names don't need to go together IMO, but it helps if there's a common vibe, and the names not too similar.

Do you want another shortish name? Would you use a diminutive but with a longer name on the birth certificate?
Which names do you like but can't use?
How would you define traditional?

Names I think would not go would be:

  • something like Nino, Gino, anything beginning with N (Noah, Nate, Niall ...)
  • from a different culture or religion (e.g. Muhammed, Tsumugi or Alparslan)
