Baby boy name - modern and international

[Carmelova85]

We are expecting our first DC and will find our the gender soon.
We decided very quickly on the girl name - both in love with name Lara.
However we really struggle with boy name, although everyone thinks I'm having a boy...

As I'm not British we want the name that is easy to pronounce abroad.

We want something modern, not super sophisticated or tacky, similar vibe to Lara, but we can't agree on the name... My DH son from his previous relationship is called Leo and love this name but obviously can't use it. Any ideas?

DH ideas:

• Lewis
• Hugo
• Sebastian
• Logan
• Robin

My list:

• Arlo
• Franco
• Kai
• River
• Alex
• Adam
• Zachary

Any suggestions?

Anders & Raphael are quite international names that have a modern feel.

From your DH list I like Sebastián and Hugo.
None of your names are my style, sorry!

Adam is one of my favourite names and I like Hugo as well. None of the others appeal to me but they're all grand names.

Most of your names aren't my style either, sorry. Arlo is very very popular and Franco unless you have Spanish/Italian background it might sound odd.

Alex would probably be my number one as you can't go wrong with that one

Lara was on our shortlist for girls but we now know that we are having a boy. Here's a few boys names from my list:

• Jasper
• Max
• Peter
• Rory
• Isaac

Jonah
Max
Isaac
Remy
Xavier
Elias

Luca
Enzo/Lorenzo - I know two babies with European parents living in the U.K. called this.
Max
Otto
Gabriel/Gabe

Franco like the Spanish dictator?

Milo
Nico
Adam works in lots of languages
Axel

Theo - just because it’s a great name!

How about Luka?

I think Max and Leo sound great together and Max is very international. So is Alex, I love Alexander.

How about Nicholas, Thomas or Louis?

Noah is in top ten list for many countries

Leon

Lukas
Jasper
Jonas
Jonah
Max
Ludo
Joel

Where are you from OP?

I like the suggestion of Leon for Leo's half brother.

Noah
Max

Rafael
Luca
Nico/Nicolas
Marcio
Tobias
Andre

I have Leo and Luca

Many of the suggestions will sound different depending on which language it is used.

How about Lars for a boy instead of Lara for a girl or something like Erik.

Laurence nn Laurie

Yes Rory would be a good choice.

Hugo great.
