3 letter boy's names

[NannyPear]

31 weeks pregnant with a baby boy and driving myself nuts over his name. The only one that we both really like is Leo, but it's becoming so popular where I live. I don't mind popular, timeless names (e.g. Alexander, Jack etc) but don't want one that connects too much to a certain generation. Is Leo too faddy?

So as it seems we've taken a liking to 3 letter names, and in the interest of narrowing down our options, I would love to hear your favourites!

I have a Leo, chosen precisely because it was a short name in its own right! I know more children called Max, Ben and Tom locally. Ds is especially pleased as it’s short to write at school 😁 I also know a few older men called Leo so I personally think it is timeless. No negative comments that I’ve suffered either. Occasionally misheard as Lee, Liam or Neo, if you fancy anything similar.

I have a Max. I think it's a good strong name that will suit him throughout life

I have a Leo and I love it. I wasn't totally sure before he was born for the same popularity reason, but there just wasn't another name I liked as much. And I really don't think it matters what anyone else is called. It does have quite a lot of history and meaning as a name too.

It's really hard finding the perfect name but you will :)

I know a couple of Jax

I don't like it, but not my choice.
