Stuck for a boy's name - would love opinions on these!

I'm only 11+3 but it's okay to daydream and plan ahead, right? :-)

We're sorted for a girl's name, but I can't find a boy's name that I truly love. We both like the following:

Keir
Cillian
Rory
Laurie

What do you all think? Any front runners or even other suggestions along these lines?

Keir only nice one x

Keir - not sure
Cillian- no
Rory - yes
Laurie- no

Shadow1234 · 10/06/2019 01:41

I really like Laurie, so that would be my first choice
Keir would be my second choice

Astronica · 10/06/2019 08:09

Kiefer

Fergus
Magnus
Rafe
Kester
Caspar

Laurie

IHeartKingThistle · 10/06/2019 22:14

Laurie is gorgeous short for Laurence. But then all the Laurences I've taught have used their full name!

TenThousandSpoons · 11/06/2019 07:10

I like Rory and Laurie. Both are quite hard for children to say though.
Keir - Royale
Cillian - makes me think of Gillian and also kill. Kill Gillian. Don’t like at all.

SallyWD · 11/06/2019 07:18

Rory, followed by Laurie short for Lawrence

GetTheGoodLookingGuy · 11/06/2019 07:23

Do you like Kian/Cian? Seems similar to both Cillian and Keir.

Pinkmouse6 · 11/06/2019 11:59

Cillian and Rory are cool.

HappyDinosaur · 11/06/2019 12:05

I like Rory, Kier is awful to me though.

Sexnotgender · 11/06/2019 12:08

What about Kerr rather than Keir? I don’t dislike Keir just a thought though.

Pizzaaddict · 11/06/2019 12:08

I love Kier

Pizzaaddict · 11/06/2019 12:08

Oops. Keir

Whoops75 · 11/06/2019 12:11

I know two females called Laurie

I love Rory or Ronan

Killian/Cillian is nice

Kier don’t know any and I’m not a fan sorry

Spita123 · 13/06/2019 06:15

Cillian is. Lovely. , but much much nicer is. Is Ciaran Irish version of Kieran Pronouncing. Like key- rawn, Laurie no not at alll it’s. Feminine. And a pet name for Laura

LittleKitty1985 · 13/06/2019 07:04

I think they're all a bit wet tbh. & Keir and Cillian would get mispronounced and misspelled

Richlyfruited · 14/06/2019 18:31

Laurie is fab!

Getting more popular I think as I know quite a few (all boys!)

Raffy2019 · 14/06/2019 18:37

I love all four!!
