Hi

Looking for some inspiration/suggestions on boys names. For some reason finding it difficult to find a name we love. We are not keen on traditional names. Surname will be Cullen.

Thanks for any help

How non-traditional do you want to go? Not names I'd personally choose but.....

Asa
Axel
Brodie
Bear
Forest
Hunter
Huxley
Jet
Jude
Percy
Rex
River
Tiger
I think I'd avoid anything beginning with C and ending with "on" or "en" or it's a mouthful will Cullen.

When we say not traditional we mean names like Thomas, William, George etc. Finding Cullen quite difficult as you said about it being a mouthful

I’d avoid emmett as you’d get a lot of twilight references.

The type of names you’re looking for are probably. Kaiden, Jayden. Keegan, Langdon. Fraser. Jackson, Jenson, Branden ect. None of those are horrendous with Cullen just a bit harsh with the double N ending.
Louis, Adam, Sean, Liam, Gabriel, James, Matthew Cullen. Yes they’re all traditional but they still also have quite a modern feel to them.
Dexter Cullen
Bradley Cullen
Ashley Cullen.
Kyle Cullen
Finley Cullen
Taylor Cullen
Travis Cullen
Brodie Cullen.
Ross Cullen

Sorry hadn't spotted the non traditional requirement!
How about
Heath
Grey
Malachi
Elliott

I think you should avoid names ending with an N

Cullen is an Irish surname so any Irish name would probably sound nice. (I know some of the suggestions aren't Irish names but I like then with Cullen.)
