Non Traditonal Boy's Names?

Hello ladies! Smile

I'm only 4w+5 (now it's gone midnight haha) but I'm already brainstorming names! I know it's early but it's so exciting!

I have my girls name sorted and to be honest me and my partner are hoping for a girl but of course we would be more than thrilled with a beautiful baby boy too!

The problem is I just can't find a boys name that we agree on! Especially as a lot of suggestions we have had are like: George or Michael etc which are all lovely in their own right but just not right for us Smile

Does anyone have any suggestions that are less traditional for a little boy?

Thanks in advance ladies! Thanks

I think Finley/Finn is nice and maybe not AS traditional?

Others:
Hayden
Charlie
Alfie
Archie
Tyler

Not sure what your style is, so maybe:

Noah
Lucas
Jacob
Harry
Jamie

Oh I love some of those! I had considered Tyler and Noah but it's just convincing the other half haha!

Never had considered Finley or Archie though, they're lovely!

I was toying with Harley but again the other half! Its amazing how many names we like individually but agreeing on just one is so difficult haha!

Ooh I have so many to add to my list!

I've noticed it's amazing how many people you find you dislike when trying to name a baby haha!

Crosses a few nice names off the list right from the off unfortunately!

I know some of these originate from Scotland/Ireland, etc.

However, I find 'traditional names' are names like: Edward, James, Oliver, etc. :)

So:
Aidan
Alfie
Archie
Bobby
Bradley
Cameron
Charlie
Dylan
Elliot
Freddie
Isaac
Jack
Jamie
Kai
Kieran
Lewis
Nathan
Zachary
