One syllable boy names

34 replies

I have noticed a trend in boy names I like being one syllable, for example, Max, Josh, Luke.
Based on this any other suggestions I may like?

Doesn’t the whole Cain and Abel thing pose a problem? Cain did not cover himself in glory there.

@Ritascornershop it doesn’t for me, no.

Ritascornershop · 05/06/2020 18:32

Maybe it’s a fading connotation Howl? Just me then Grin

howlatthetrees · 05/06/2020 18:44

I think it depends on if you know other Cain’s, there’s loads in my family so I associate Cain with them not the bibleGrin @Ritascornershop
