I like many names for a boy but when it comes to choosing it is just not good/right/appropriate enough...why is it happening to me and how to deal with it? thanks

I know what you mean - I like lots of names on other people’s children but I’d be hard pushed to name another boy of my own now - the names either seem too popular, trendy, bland or old fashioned 😂 I guess you need to come up with a list that you like and then see which suits him when he’s born - names can definitely grow on you I think 😊

I know what you mean, it can be hard to think, this is the exact right name, with two of my sons actually I felt really undecided until I saw them and needed a couple of days watching them to see which one suited them the best 😊 one son we had a name set, but I didn't want to use it once he actually arrived and we had to restart the list again! But now he suits his name. I'm sure you will find the right name for your baby.

Sometimes you need to see the baby’s face before a name fits.

@Daydreamingg , the other threads give the context and more information about the criteria the OP has for the name.
