Brooks?

[Rachelhaydenberk1]

I'm not currently expecting a boy but I still have names on the brain. :)

I have a hard time finding boys names I really like. But the name Brooks is growing on me.

I dont like Brooke, as that strikes me a girl's name only, even without the e. And oddly I have a bad association with Brooke as a female name but I feel open to Brooks for a boy for some odd reason.

Brooks seems masculine although the s at the end could be kinda pesky.

Any thoughts? I'm American but I haven't met any children with this name - or anyone. Its ranked around 200 apparently for popularity right now but it's not a name I've heard used.

I LOVE the name Bram 😍

Thanks!! Lennox is kinda cool!! Dale is a family name so I love it but it sounds close to Dahlia which I love if I have another girl. I do like Asher and Heath as well.

I wish I liked George - seems like a name of so many greats, worldly! It definitely doesnt go with my surname. It could possibly be a middle name option. I've also always loved Vincent.

Omg yes Bram!!! I really love it. Not Abraham or Abram though - just Bram!

I thought of Real Housewives too SuchAToDo. Brooks was a scuzzy, middle aged gold digger who faked cancer. I wouldn't use it.

Has anyone mentioned Shawshank yet?

I dont watch Real Housewives and forgot about Shawshank Redemption!! Its all good. I think I like other names way more than Brooks anyway!! Boy names are just harder to me to come up with refreshing ones I like.

Garth Brooks was my first thought.

I didnt even think of that! I love Garth Brooks!!

Bronson could be a mistake!

never heard before OP but I really like it! x

I know someone with a son named Brookson :)
