Another boy!

[shufflebum]

We used the only name we both agreed on for DS which is Xander (not to everyones taste I know but we love it! I'm absolutely stuck as was convinced this one would be a girl and had those names sorted. I've got a few months in hand but need the time to bring DH round.
Names that I like that have all been vetoed
Max
Zachary
Isaac
Barnaby
Asa
Our surname begins with a C and is only one syllable so a 2 syllable name is preferable I think.
Any ideas?
We did like Finn/Finlay last time but too many about now, 4 at nursery in the toddler room!
Got to pop out now but will check back in a bit for inspiration.

Xander is lovely and goes well with Barnaby imo. Isaac is also nice. How about Xander and Quentin?

Asa is a girls name in Scandinavia and Max is very widely used already, so I'd avoid that.

I like Max best, and then Isaac.

Neither are as widely used as Zachary/Zac and Barnaby IME.

I only know girls called Asa.

Xander...and Xerxes

Nicolas
Dashiell
Spencer
Jude
Bailey
Henry
Aston
Franco

wouldn't have Isaac with a C--- surname too 'CCCCC-y' in the middle

oooooh....
howabout

Boris?

or Hugo

Boris and Hugo are lovely

Xander and Hugo

I'd avoid a name with another x, so wouldn't combine Xander and Max - too many x's imo. I also agree with WhipMe that Isaac C or Zac C isn't the best combo.

I think Xander and Barney sound good, or Xander and Quentin, both 2 syllable names that are similar in style to Xander imo.

ooh couldn't resist a quick peek before I left!
I thought Asa was a boys name, well scrub that then!
Whipme how do you pronounce Xerxes?
Sorry not keen on Boris or Hugo.
I agree about the C sound with Isaac I just really like it so keep ignoring it!
Right really am going out now

I think the girls name in Sweden is spelt Åsa.

Milo
Sebastian
Remy
Arlo
Wilfred
Bruno

But Barnaby is so lovely - imagine a little baby Barnaby, awwwwwww cutie!

I wouldn't have a Zachary with a Xander (presuming you pronounce it as 'Zander' and not the Ex-ander' I heard once ) .

I knew a Xander when I was younger (was actually Alexander but he switched in his teenage years), his brother was Asher. Means happy in Hebrew.

Love Isaac from your list.

Not Isaac- have no idea what surname is but for example say Isaac Cox really quickly.....

Sebastian is lovely but am biased , we shorten to Baz ut mainly as his brother can't say the whole name. Arlo is nice, no Barbaby babies here but names are incredibly regional IME.

Isaiah is Isaac is a set fave?

Asher is nice.

Loving Dashiell.

We have 4 boys; names get very hard don't they? Names you are not cewrtain of can grow on you though; DH selected Stirling for one of ours (I got to name ds4) and I was not keen but love it now.

Theodore, shortened to Theo or Ted?

Rudy
Rory
Elijah
Silas
Wilfred
Albert
Oscar/Ozzie
Reuben
Rufus
Billy
Gregory
Jamie
Jacobi
Orlando
Noah
Gabriel
Jude

The only Asa I've ever known was male.

Aaron
Ueli
Inigo
Davy
Ijah?

Don't know if I can do this but this is from Wikipedia:

Asa (/'ay-sah/) - derived from the Hebrew language, as the name appears in the Old Testament to designate the third King of Judah, who reigned for forty years. It became a popular name because of the influence of the Puritans in the 17th century. Also means healer and/or physician, Ase Male
Asa (pronounced 'asha') - a Nigerian name with the meaning hawk, or little hawk.
Åsa - Swedish name in reference to Æsir
Asa - Japanese name with the original meaning 'morning'. Unisex

Also a Hindu male name.

Of the names mentioned here I like Hugo, Barnaby or Gabriel for Xander.

i'm gonna go different - how about zavier?

those were our choices

(went beau, issac xander zavier) as it turns out thou we're now agreed on wyatt - any good?

Xander and Felix

DH is rubbish he doesn't like any of them
Xavier is my option if I give birth in France which is possible as we are cutting our holiday dates a bit fine considering DS was a month early!
Is Dashiell pn Dash-she-ell or more like D'shiel?

oooh I have an Asa, and had Xander on my list too :-D

I love Xavier, but that might be a bit too similar to Xander?

other names I like are:

Gabriel
Linus
Tobias
Lucien
Arlo
Otto
Nico
Noam
Beau

I have a Xander :) And his big brother is Nathaniel. And our surname begins with C too! In 3 months they'll be another boy so am also in the same boat. Good luck!

Lars
Josiah
Levi
Nathaniel
Jesse
Silas
Ivan
Augustus
Roman
Jonas
Clement
Quinn
Flynn

Xander is more popular than I thought on MN
All of those vetoed too, I like Nathaniel, not keen on Nathan though. Quinn is good too but not great with the C surname
