Really stuck for boy names

[dottyrobin]

I already have a daughter called Eleanor nn. Ellie

The boys names I instinctively like without thinking are Elijah and Elliot which clearly won't work with Ellie.

I also really like Max but my surname is May so Max May sounds like a dodgy superhero.

Husband likes Robert nn. Bobby but I don't like it.
We both sort of like Arthur but I'm still not 100%.

Looking for some inspiration for names that will go with both sibling name and surname.

[daysleepers]

Ryan
Josiah nn Joe
Remy
Alexander
Ashton

[wingsofabird]

Max May sounds great

[Trez1510]

Ezra May.

Sounds like someone not to be messed with by anyone!

[Olblueeyes]

Ezra
Joshua
Alexander
Dylan
Isaac
Jacob
Lucas
Nathaniel
Owen
Thomas

[cravingtoblerone]

I think a longer Christian name works well with May

Alexander May
Dominic May
Benedict May
Gabriel May

[mathanxiety]

James
Oliver
Louis
Gabriel
Nicholas
Samuel
Charles (Charlie)
Felix
Reuben
Conrad
Barnaby
Alexander
Sebastian
Christopher (Kit)

I think I like the L sound best in a name to go with Eleanor.

[Consufed]

Alexander would be a good choice.

Tristan
Peter
Julian
Daniel
Rowan
Wilbur
Gregory
Leo
Vincent

I'm swinging back towards Max May now! The only reason I was put off Arthur was the current popularity.

Quite like Evan, Alexander, Felix, Robin and Lawrence from the suggestions.

Cameron May sounds too political for me 😂

Jasper May?

[Luredbyapomegranate]

Robert nn Robbie or Robin rather than Bobby?

Alistair
Patrick
Francis
Tobias (Toby)
Dominic
Sebastian
Jonathan
Ernest
Thomas
Daniel

I think Laurence is a nice suggestion

Max is a bit overdone I think, and Max May I don’t think is great.

If Arthur is too popular for you I would lay off Alexander, combined with just Alex it seems to be the name of the moment

[Pinkdafodils]

I think a 2 syllable name sounds best

Oscar May
Quentin May
Reuben May

[Pinkdafodils]

Please don't call your son Max May - it sounds so comical imo.

Everett May
Benedict May
Cameron May
Marlowe May

I worked with a police dog called Max May and he was absolutely incredible! Great, great name choice 👌🏻

[mumonherphone]

While reading your post I thought of Ethan and Robin. (Alternatives to Elliot/Elijah and Robert)

[sunshinesobeautiful]

Every other little boy is called Arthur at the moment! Arthur or Theo - very overused

How about
Benjamin May
Rafael May
Asa May
Felix May

[Riverlee]

Maximilian, nn Max

Benjamin
Alexander
Richard
Daniel
Frederick
Christopher

[MintLampShade]

I'd go with Maximilian May nn Max - I think it's awesome!! Max and Eliot were both on my list, as well as

Theodore May nn Teddy
Benjamin May
Sebastian May

[StampOnTheGround]

We have a Max, I would still use it with May - sounds great!

Other names we considered (well not really, we only had Max that we both loved) were Leo and Arlo
