Hello!

We're expecting a baby boy in the summer & are stuck on names. No siblings for it to go with, but we have a four syllable surname that's difficult to pronounce so want something simple & not really popular.

So far names we like are:

Jesse
Milo
Leo (seems very popular which might rule this one out!)
Finn

I wondered if anyone had any similar suggestions that we hadn't thought of? Thank you 😊

Absolutely love Jesse. Luca? Otto? Enzo?

These are the kind of names I like too, also trying to name a boy just now! Finn is my absolute favourite though ❤️ We did also like Freddie. Jenson is a way less common name in Scotland so that was a contender too. Also love Reuben and Kit. Bit more unusual but my number one name of all time is Ari, just love it so much

My first thought was the already mentioned Evan.
Also like
Euan
Owen
Aidan
Adam
Oscar

Second Evan and Owen - well known but outside the top 100 (also love Adam and Max if you don't mind slightly more popular).

Other short/simple but uncommon names I like -
Ivo
Heath
Hugh
John (been outside the top 100 for a while!)
Orrin
Corin
Lev (same meaning as Leo, but less overused)
Zev
Asa

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 10/05/2021 20:04

Or if you like Lucas - Magnus and Rufus have a similar vibe imo but are less popular.

MillyJS · 10/05/2021 21:53

Ooh I like Owen!

Also agree with you on Ari @sarah13xx, unusual but really nice.

Thanks all, these are all so helpful! I think we'll end up having a shortlist & seeing what suits him when he gets here.
