So really stuck on boys names, not really finding any that stand out to me. I'm in love with the name River but his surname will be Stacey. I'm worried that it might not work and people might assume that its a girl name or that his name will sound like an actual River.
I'm open to over suggestions
I love nature, earthy names and unusual
other possible names are:
Jet
Hunter
Mason
x

I like the name mason.

Linden is an unusual and earthy name. Linden Stacey has a nice ring to it too

OP the names Hunter River and Jet rang a bell. This is why...

Please don’t give your son a name that will incite mockery. What is wrong with solid, tested names that no one can take piss out of?
We sometimes name our kids like we are naming a pet, it’s really not the same. Think long and hard before you saddle your kid with something like River ffs

Ps Jet, Hunter & Mason are all wanky too

Hunter and Mason are nice. What about Ash, Rowan, Wren, Sunny, Sage, Sky - all nature themed and lovely (IMO)

@Puffycat you are so rude!!!

OP... I'm sure you're smart enough to ignore narrow minded rude comments like the above.

Kids don't generally pick on each other because of their names anyway. Normally they get picked on because of their

Sorry presses send too soon!

Kids get picked on for their personality or whatever else. Basically if the bully wants to be mean they'll just be mean no matter what names are around... Ehem ^^^

I knew of a few kids with odd/unusual names in my nephews school who were the bullies!

Congratulations and I'm sure you'll find a lovely name for you're nature boy Smile Flowers

Love the name Jett (spelt this way). I knew a rather handsome Jett growing up.. hottest guy in school and definitely not teased because of his name. I also knew a Hudson (similar to Hunter I guess). I have always liked the name, sounds very cool.

Also like previous suggestions of Cole, Evan, Jake and Rowan. All would sound great with your surname too. :)

As Stacey is quite feminine sounding I would go for a definite boy's name. Jet St... sounds wrong, Mason is a bit hmm, so I would go for Hunter, although with the surname it sounds a bit like a style of welly.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 06/06/2018 11:49

I like Jett too.
How about Bram Stacey, of Luther Stacey.

coffeequeenx · 06/06/2018 12:25

Thanks all for your suggestions still trying to decide might have to wait until I see him in person Wink
