I have been gathering opinions on this forum for a while now and find it very difficult to understand which names are considered nice and lovely… would you please name three of your favorites?
Modern and not overused. Thank you

Both my boys' names have been mentioned. If I had to name another boy, I'd go for Inigo.

Lucas, Axl, Cillian are three of my faves not sure if any of them fit the modern and not overused criteria.

TheeNotoriousPIG · 30/06/2025 22:39

Henry, Victor and Edmund... but I'm an ex-teacher, which ruined a lot of names for me, hence why I probably like the underused (with the exception of Henry) and old names!

KatRee · 30/06/2025 22:40

Joseph, Alexander, Samuel

JustAnInchident · 30/06/2025 22:41

Tristan, Lachlan and Elliot, if I had to choose three right now.

TheFairFairy · 30/06/2025 22:43

I’d go with Ezra, Arlo and Cassian they feel modern without being super common and have a soft but strong vibe
