Hi just found out we’re having a little boy, we both like the name Aaron but wondered if anyone has any suggestions for names in a similar vein that we might consider?
Thanks x

Joshua.

Levi

Although if you both like Aaron why not just go with it. Some couples would give anything to have a name they both agreed on. What's the point in complicating things.

Taron
Callan
Stellan

I make 2 instant connections:

Aarons at school hung around with kids called: Ricky, Bradley, David, Jason, Leon.

Biblical names: Michael, Peter, Paul, John.

Whatsyourflava · 22/02/2021 10:21

Aaron is really lovely and so underused these days too. Fallen way outside the top 100 now and continues to fall. The opposite of trendy. A great name. Use it!

Whatsyourflava · 22/02/2021 10:22

Use aaron

If not

Peter
Laurence
Winston
Evan
Walter
Wilfred
Nathan
Tristan

Other biblical names you might like:

I like Aaron a lot! There is also Oran, which I like too, or Orson.

Some good suggestions on here already.

How about:

Gabriel
Benjamin
Thomas
Adam
Joshua

How do you pronounce Aaron? There are two ways.
I quite like the spelling Aran if you like that pronunciation. Cillian Murphy has a son called Aran and I assume he is named after the beautiful Aran Islands in Ireland.
There is also Arran which are Scottish islands I believe.

I loved the name Aaron when I was pregnant with my second but thought it sounded a bit too close to my oldest, who is Ewan Smile

Good luck deciding

LadyCatStark · 22/02/2021 13:23

Erm... Aaron? 😂 in all my years as a TA and parent I’ve only come across 1 child Aaron so it’d consider it rare but not “out there”.

Muitolegal · 22/02/2021 13:24

It’s such a nice name
Also love Joshua, Joel, Christian
