I don't love any boy names

[Nobhobs]

Expecting a little boy in 4 months, only trouble is there are no names that I love. I like Charlie, Jacob and Jack but can't use these, but I also don't love them. I don't want a name that's everywhere and is really common but I feel like all the names I like are, but again, I just don't love them? Help!

Carter? Just heard it in the street! (They do look like hipsters though) Wny surnames on your side that you could use as a first name?

How about Cassius, Cass for short.
Or there is a Carver in one of my baby groups which I quite like!

Jasper
Caspar
Rory
Rufus
Leo
Evan

What about Maverick? Its our litle boys name and we love it.

Caleb? Sounds like Jacob

We couldn't really agree on a boy name but I suggested a surname and everyone liked it (even the other side of the family) so if DD was a boy she would have continued a dead (in the close-ish family, not in the country) surname

Felix
Dale
Otis

Thanks for all suggestions, none of them grab me though I really want to love the name, I want it to be special but nothing seems to be giving me that 'the one' feeling. It's so difficult!

What sort of girls names do you love ? We can maybe get a feel for what you are after ? What about surnames as first names

Any family names you could use a grandad or uncle ?

We came up with a shortlist and when he was born he suited his name better than all the others

Hudson
Troy
Carey
Christopher
Ronan
Alfred
Leo
Cassius
Ralph
Caleb
Emmett
Tate
Franklyn
Ira
Nathaniel

Joseph

Anyone you look up to? A pioneer in a field toy care about? So the name has a meaning you may love rather than the name it's self?

How about Austin?...

I'm in the exact same position! I'm having a baby early April and still haven't decided on a name....
I like Frederick but I don't like 'Fred', which his nickname will inevitably be. I like Oliver but it seems to be very common.
What are your thoughts on Hamish?!? I'm really stuck ....

Love Theo

Boys names are really hard. What girls’ Names do you like? That might help us.

Does your OH have any names he loves?
