I don't love any boy names

[RiotC]

So DS is Kit. Love his name, thought of it quite early on and it always stuck and he's 5 now.
Next DS is on the way and I'm just not loving any names
Names I like but close family have them so I can't:
Ezra
Jesse
Jake
Wren
Names I like but have been vetoed by DP:
Jude
Oscar
Patrick
Names we both liked but just aren't quite right:
Ash
Aiden
Cillian

Any ideas. I'm Irish and have a very common Irish surname (and everyone has my surname double barrelled)
We do live in England though so whilst I could go a bit Irish, I want everyone to be able to pronounce it.
Equally partner is English and I'm happy with an Englishy name too or one that doesn't scream either like Kit!

I like crisp names with Kit ...

Cohen
Flynn
Redmond - Red
Jedd
Heath
Rex
Craig
Alex
Hugh

Kit and

Zachary - Zach
Xander
Reuben
Gabriel - Gabe
Finn
Liam
Hugo
Etienne

Torin is a great name. From previous suggestions I like Finn and Asa.

What about Ronan or Rowan.

Austin
Vaughn
Hudson
Rhett
Wilfred
Elwood
Morgan

So many good options. Got me thinking again! I was in such a rut!

@RiotC what about Tadhg? I love the name!

I know, me too! Feels really wholesome some how!

Niall ?

I like Patrick! What about Michael?
Or is there someone meaningful you could name him after?

Silas
Dexter

I kind of wish I'd gone for Dexter for DS - though he's a lefty so might've been a bit weird!

I was going to suggest Tadhg too!

@AlyssumandHelianthus Micheal would be really meaningful, as it's my grandad, uncle and my brother (middle name). It's not quite ringing right at the moment!
(I do teach a few Mikeys)

Ronan?

I barely like any boy names (and have three sons ) we seem to have quite similar taste - unusual, I never see people liking the same names I like.

This was my list in the end (includes some I did use and some I didn't/couldn't)

Idris
Alfred (Fred/Freddie) - loved the meaning "Leader of Elves"
Tobias
James
Leo
Alexander (Alex)
Max
Robin
Merlin
Kester
Lars
Oren
Owen

(I love Jesse and Jude!)

DH fell hard in love with Nikolas (Niko) and I tried to like it because he was so adamant but I just never got there XD

What about Rory? You could choose to spell it the Irish way too if you’d prefer that

Boy names are so hard! Not sure what we're having yet but really struggling to choose one I love.

Arley
Frankie
Renly
Leon
Carson
Hudson
Louis
Louie
Luca
Asa
Charlie
Oliver
Leo
Bobby
Carter
Cody
Taylor

Shea
Finn
Gene

I like -
Kit and Elis
Kit and Ivo
Kit and Max
Kit and Calum
Kit and Nairn
Kit and Rory

Osian
Ivo
Eden
Leo

James. Every James I have ever met is lovely.

Ah congrats! We also wanted Irish heritage name that could be pronounced and spelt easily (DD name already fit that brief).

Our shortlist was this:

Rory
Ronan
Cillian
Ciaran
Fintan
Finbar
Calum
Colm

I love Osian.

Another vote for Laurie. It was on our list as was:

Barney
Rory
Felix
Rufus - this is what we went for and it suits that sweet little boy perfectly

My ds would have been called Drew if his dad wasn't called Andrew.

Dominic hasn’t been mentioned
