We still don't know what we're having yet. These are the boys names on our list. Which one would you pick? I'd love to hear your comments on all the names and also if there are associations (good or bad) so we are aware of everything:
Max
Finn
Flynn
Elliott
Caspar
George
Dylan
Otto
Edward
Aidan
Edmund
Colin
Finlay
Maximilian
I'm not sure whether Flynn is cool or ridiculous. What do you say? My husband's idea and I hated it at first but it has really grown on me since. Finn seems more boring in comparison but also more classic. Sometimes I think Finlay works better but I heard in the US it is sometimes seen as girly? I just don't know whether it will age as well.
I think we will just use Max or Finn and not the longer versions but not 100% sure yet.
As for Elliott I'm a bit worried about spelling issues.
I don't know if you know the feeling but with girls names there is a new one I like almost every day whereas with boys names the list is more consistent. On the one hand it makes me feel more secure that with the boys list we won't have any regrets whereas with the girls names I often love a name a certain day and don't care much for it anymore two weeks later (we did manage to come up with a few names I always seem to love, though). But it's exciting to search for girls names too as there are so many that appeal to me!
