Hi everyone. The gender is a surprise but if we have a boy we would like to find a name beginning with the letter M. We're not keen on traditional names and prefer something slightly different, but not too 'out there'. Our first little boy is called Ezra.
Below is our list so far. Would be good to know what name you would pick from our choices. Suggestions are also welcome. Thank you :)
Madison
Malachi
Makai
Maddox
Milan
Monroe
Makari
Mavi

With Ezra as a big brother, baby should be either Malachi, or Micah

Thank you for the feedback so far. I love Micah but DH is Michael so too similar unfortunately.

I think merlin is rather nice with Ezra - if you go for off the wall names. Sounds like a pair of wizards!!

Micah, Malachi, Matthias.

If you're looking for another biblical one you could go Melchior or Methuselah!

Always had a love of Malachi.

If you like Micah, does it really, really matter if DH is Michael?

I like Malachi from your list. Monroe and Madison are girls' names to my ears.

My issue with Micah is the pronunciation as I have taught a meeka and a myka.

I am not a Malachi fan (naughty pupil once upon a time - teacher problem!)

I heard of a baby Maverick recently which is rather fabulous.

I love Monty
