If I like the names Jonah, Cole and Harry what else would I like?

I like these but don't love them. Think I'm going to have to go with something I just like, but don't love, as I've never came across a boy name I like in 6 years.

I don't want anything too weird or out there, but nothing very common like Matthew, Jack or Charlie etc. I know Harry is common generally, but it's not in NI where we are.

Harry is very, very popular here!

How about:
Felix
Jerry
Mason

Most of them are way too out there Delta .

Lynette I know it is generally but I know of 3 and I know a hell of a lot of kids. Most boy names are Irish here.

There's a website called babynameguide.com where you can add names to a list of favourites it might be worth having a look at that.

I think Harry is lovely! Although no longer living in N.I. - I'd agree that I hardly know any little Harry's over there.

Hey friends its the first step of the parents for his baby. Thinking a name with good meaning is not easy . I am gone threw this . But i searched on internet and one of my friend told me a website with baby names and meanings. I selected the British names from there. Hope you can get some help.

My best friends ds is Callan wishful. It's lovely.

There's nothing else jumping out at me, I'm hoping for a miracle tbh as I've been looking at lists for years. Think I'm going to have to go for a name I just like and hope I grow to love it.
