I am looking for boy name suggestions. 😊Thank you for your help.

What a loser I am. Fell in desperate love with an Iain, married a Keith. But let's keep talking about Ians, it makes me go all warm and fuzzy.

Better too if you stick a few random foreign accents on the vowels or for deeper hipsterness stick them on the consonants and you're good to go!

Ah, I came on to suggest Arlo but 20 others have beaten me to it. Is it really top 50? Confused

How about Arthur or Lonnie, short for Alonzo?

Or Nigel?

Balonz is an amazing thread. Just spent an hour 😂😂😂😂 reading it!

As for hipster boys?

Jackson? Always reminds me of the cool kids from American dramas!

I don't know if I'm insulted or not that dc1 has had his name mentioned twice! I did mistakenly think it was more common than it was when we named him.

Marlon
Arlo

Shack I was born in Dalston so I'm a real cock-er-nee. But far too old to be a hipster.

A few more er, less usual names
Bastien (not if you're French, of course)
Edsel
Enzo
Waldo
Zbigniew (but only if if you're NOT Polish)
