Baby name suggestions wanted!

We have a Flynn Edward

Names I like;
Bodhi
Sullivan
Reuben
August
Rio
Otis
Rory
... things like that.

My husband likes;
Leo
Arthur
Lucas
George
... things like that.

I think we have quite different taste. We would like something uncommon but not totally unheard of so that it brings our 2 tastes together, any suggestions please?
The middle name will be Graham.

Thank you

Possible ideas..

  • Roman

Not sure if these are any good! I really liked Maverick for a boy!

Love George and Rory. These both go good with graham especially George xx

MaryBoBary · 03/05/2021 20:32

What about Otto? Seems a good mix of your taste and traditional?

Flymetothestars · 03/05/2021 20:54

@17Pumpkin17 you need to get a list of the official ONS top 100 names and avoid all of them if you want something relatively uncommon. I know about 6 baby Rory's - it's boomed hundreds of places up the charts in the past few years

How about
Laurence
Tristan
Ellis
Vincent
Wilfred
Winston
Walter
Christopher Kit
Nathaniel Nate
Sidney Sid
Peter
Miles
Casper

I was going to suggest Rory, so I'm glad to find it on your list.

I would just twist DH's arm.

EmmaGrundyForPM · 06/05/2021 12:02

I really like Reuben and Otis from your list

ThatIsMyPotato · 06/05/2021 12:24

Ethan
Mason

Love Rory though

Rockmehardplace · 06/05/2021 12:57

I immediately thought Oliver goes well, though is pretty popular.

Gavin
Arlo
Conal
Harbour

Rockmehardplace · 06/05/2021 13:08

Keir
Aaron

Sandsnake · 06/05/2021 13:11

Angus?

Quite traditional, not super popular. Like August could have ‘Gus’ as a nickname. Goes well with Flynn.

Darklava09 · 15/05/2021 16:45

We also have a Flynn

Our list is

  • Beau (front runner)
  • Arlo
  • reign
  • Edison
  • Lincoln

We also like unusual names and it’s hard. We can’t have something to brash or manly as such as our Flynn is very cute for a boy :)

MrsMiddleMother · 19/05/2021 14:18

Love Flynn 😍

My suggestions

Otis
Cole
Jesse
