Love NO boy names :(

[litttlemisssunshine]

24 weeks pregnant with dc1. Before finding out the sex I had a huge list of girl names and no boy names at all. I just can't find any boy names that I like, never mind love girl names are so beautiful and easy to shortlist, why is finding a boy name so hard!

Some boy names that I think are OK
-Leo
-Toby
-Freddie
-Arthur
-Harrison

Still all seem so dull to me. Thinking of using a name that could be used for a boy or a girl. Suggestions on this could be helpful.

These were on my most current list, but we're having a girl (and I'm struggling for the perfect name!)

Thelonius
Benedict
Edison
Tiberius

Quite liking Edison! actually never heard of it before but it looks great written down and sounds nice too, thank you

Oh no, I never knew how hard it could be! At least I'm not the only one struggling.

My girl shortlist was;
-Sophia
-Delilah
-Eliza
-Evelyn
-Maddison

Your girl names are longer than your boy list - almost all three syllables. Maybe think of some 3+ syllable boys names?

Sebastian
Dominic
Julian
Alistair
Lucian
Jeremy
Tobias
Alexander
Elliot

I felt exactly the same the dreamt I was chasing a little blonde boy on a beach. His name was Benjamin and that was that! He's Benji mostly and we chose Arlo as a middle name. I love his name xx

Yes I quite like Tobias, Nn Toby. I also like Elliott which funnily enough is DP surname, and will be his surname too, so I guess it's already part of his name

Benjamin is lovely! Was one of my favourite boy names, but me being me I suggested it to my step sister a few year ago and she used it for her DS. Didn't really picture myself having children at this time though!

Josiah
Aarav
Findlay
Logan
Balthazar?

Nathaniel
Miles
Jasper
Gus
Calvin
Sebastian

Lewis
Kester
Austin
Maxwell
Oscar

I know the feeling about boys name. My list is very short too.

Samuel
Jerome
Roman

Tobias is great or how about Quentin or Dominic?

Can you not use Madison as a boys name?

Came on to say use Madison.

Maxwell
Maximilian
Sebastian
Theodore
Tobias
Emmanuel (Mani)
Archibald (Archie)

Zachary (but I'm biased)

Hudson
Grayson
Levison
Addison
Garrison
Samson 😄

I like two: Jasper and Greyson. And I'm not in love with those. Going to be very hard naming baby!

I find myself watching credits of films and programs to see if I like any names

Alexander
Benjamin
Christopher
Jeremy
Samuel
Jonathon
Bob
Ian

Throwing in the last 2 to highlight the difference between the longer and the shorter to see how you feel.

Atticus

Elian

I was the same when we had ds2.
We found some names that we agreed that we liked that were ok but nothing that we really wanted. We had a girls name pretty easily. In the end we found a name about 4 weeks before he was born by going through top 100 names in U.K , USA and Australia.
When we had ds1 and dd we found the names that we wanted straight away, so I was starting to panic a bit. Best of luck!!! Xxxx

Chevron
Duwayne

Madison is a girls name and IMO it's a bit meh.

Harrison is awful.

Love Leo, Toby and Arthur from your list.

What do you think about: Theo, Noah, Jonah, Ezra, Caleb?

Gideon
Gabriel
Malachi
Donovan
Levison

Madison is definitely a girls name .

Oh if you want unisex names what about Ellis? I know a girl and a boy called this.

I absolutely love Bear. If I do have a boy then that shall be his name :)
