Inspire me - Boys names that you Love!

[Noleen]

What boys names do you love, I am trying to name my 2nd boy and need inspiration! We have been calling my baby Maddex since he was born 4 weeks ago but my heart isn't in it. My 1st boy's name is Kaiden which I love. So at the moment I'm thinking of changing it to Maddox as recommended by many people on the forum (rather than Maddex) or Jacob / Jake, Ethan or Cassius but am also interested to know which boy names you love!

I prefer Jacob/Jake, Ethan and Cassius to Maddex and Kaiden.

How about Dylan, Oliver, Elliot, Luke, Samuel, James, Max, Edward?

Bruno.

Out of your list I like Jake + Ethan best.

Jasper is a lovely alternative to Jacob/Jake.

My favourite names are: Fergus, William, Daniel, Zac, Samuel, Dexter and I've recently added Benedict after Benedict Cumberbatch who, imo, has one of the best names I've ever heard.

Out of your suggestions, I like Cassius, Jake and Ethan.

Jake/Jacob and Ethan much nicer than Maddox/ex.

Jake/Jacob are nice, my friend has a little boy called Jacoby too.

My favourites are Angus, Niall, Caleb, Alexander, Leo, Patrick.

I love Caleb too but I think it's too similar (in the beginning) to my other boy's name which is Kaiden?

hmm, maybe, the first sound is quite similar! but the ending sound is very different... it's all down to your preference in the end though! :)

What about Conrad?

Or Duncan or Gavin or Adrian.

Some of my favourites are:

Arthur
Atticus
Balthazar
Edward - Teddy
Sebastian

I'd avoid Maddox due to the Jolie-Pitt child, Cassius is my favourite but is it too similar to Kaiden? Not a fan of Jake it's been very popular for the last few years, Jacob is nice though

How about Jacques instead of Jake? You could always use Dexter if you like the 'Dex' in Maddex?

Hope this helps

I am loving Caleb, he just seems to look like a Caleb and it feels right but his brother is Kaiden, Do you really think they're not too similar, do you think it's even an issue to worry about or doesn't it really matter?

I love Quentin and Felix.

If you love it and he looks like a Caleb then why not? To be honest I didn't even notice until you pointed it out, and they only sound a little similar out loud, they're completely different on paper.

Bugger what anyone else thinks, he's your lad!

Max instead of Maddox?

Caleb is good!

Cassius lovely. Kaiden and Cassius sound really nice together. Kai and Cass.

ahh thanks, I guess I'm just thinking if I'm shouting out for them they might say 'Oh, I thought you were calling Kaiden, not Caleb and vice versa!" haha. I'm sure they'll do that even if their names are completely different.

I think you're worrying too much about what others (we're just a random bunch of internetters ) think - If you love Maddox, use it (but spell it properly) or if you prefer Caleb, again go for it.

Personally I think Maddox and Kaiden work better together than Caleb and Kaiden, because I think the latter two sound a little too similar.

Córmac (My 4 week old is named Córmac)

I like Maddox best out of your list. How about Marchall?

My two boys are Toby & Leo so i love those obviously! I like Ethan from your list. This baby would most likely have been Zac, Zach or Zack, couldn't decide on spelling, but turns out it's a girl anyway!

I have Ethan and Milo. I like Reeve, Theo, Toby, Finlay and Leo.

Conrad gets my thumbs up as I have a gorgeous one

if i was to have another and it was a boy

Otis I just love it

Those are all nice names, Toby, Leo, Ethan and Milo, very nice.

Like Otis redding the singer? A great singer.
