Struggling with baby boy names

[Mummato2soon]

Hi, we are expecting a little boy and really struggling for names we can’t agree on any. Surname is Walker. Our initial choice was Lucas but worried baby might get nickname Luke Skywalker … am I overthinking? Any other name suggestions?

No, you're not overthinking.
What do you like about Lucas?

You can always completely own it and give them the middle name Kai.

for a similarish name there is Lewis or Rufus.

I'd think of something else, sorry.

Oh you can't use Lucas or Luke with the surname Walker!! Unless you are massive Star Wars fans in which case go for it!

Marcus, Angus or Magnus are nice.

Unfortunately you don’t know whether your child will totally own the name (and introduce himself as Luke Skywalker in the pub), or be embarrassed every time someone thinks they’re being clever at making the connection.

If I was you I’d look at the other names in your shortlist. I liked Lucas too actually, but too many S’s in the full name so we had to cross that one off the list.

No you can’t use Lucas.

I think you are overthinking
If you like it us it

Fwiw - my current favourite boys names

Asher
Cuthbert
Edwin

Bern waiting to get those out there...😉

Yeah I think it’s too much unfortunately.

How about

Ben/Benjamin Walker
Freddie/Frederick Walker
Theo/Theodore Walker
Alex/Alexander Walker
Lewis Walker
Louis Walker

Marcus? Has a similar sound

Go with Lucas

It's better than Cuthbert

Thank you all for the comments and suggestions. Lucas is off the list now will keep thinking of other names till we find one we both love
