So stuck on a boys name, looking for some suggestions

[Lafoosa]

Hiya, I’m due my 4th baby in Nov and first boy, first baby with my DP but 5th all together.

My girls are River, Alba and Elara
stepson is Stanley

so you might see where we’re having trouble finding a name we both like 🤣

So far the only names we agree on are Robin and Rowan, but neither of us are actually sold on those.
DP loves Vincent, but it feels a little too old man for me. I really need to find a mid ground name that’s not the usual Alex, Noah, James, Jesse, etc
I’m not loving the hippier names like Arlo, Jasper, Atticus, etc either.

I absolutely also see that I’m the problem here lol, I just can’t find any names I love.

it doesn’t need to be super out there, I’m open to most things at this point (unless people start suggesting Gary, Dave, Simon, etc, don’t want a name that sounds like one of my dad’s peers)

please send suggestions! I’m so stuck 😅
thank you

How about Morgan? Or Fergus? I think looking at Welsh or Scottish names could help merge the rugged outdoors vibes of your girls names with the vintage vibes of Stanley.

Also, it's not relevant, but Arlo is currently the 15th most popular boys name - it's fully mainstream and far from hippie!

Rowan is also much more popular than Jesse, and only one place below James, so if those are ruled out for being 'the usual', I'd rule Rowan out too.

Zachary was what came to mind first. Followed by Silas.

I love Sebastian Seb for short

I like the suggestion of Robin and Quentin - especially as he’s going to be your fifth!

@MinPinSins
I’m not so bothered about unusual, I don’t think many names are particularly unusual anymore. I’ve even met a few Elara’s recently which I was surprised about.

Just any suggestions really that aren’t something I probably heard in school.
I don’t like the go to names like Jack, Jesse, Charlie, Leo, etc. They just feel a little too samey, although I do understand I’m going to get that with most names now too 😅 I honestly wish I wasn’t so fussy, it’s making it much harder work

@MiddleAgedDread
I do love Reuben but DP doesn’t.

It’s more I just don’t love hippy boys names, I’d probably not have used River on a boy had she been a boy. But I do like hippier girls names, hence my girls names lol.

I used to like other boys ones more, like Arlo, Levi, etc. But now I’m actually pregnant with a boy they just don’t feel right at all

I love your girls' names!

Robin and Rowan are two of my absolute favourite boys' names so I'd go with one of those. My other favourite (and instant thought to suggest in place of those two) is Jesse so I was surprised to see you'd listed is as a 'usual' name alongside Noah. I don't think it's that common at all, is it?

With names that range from River to Stanley, I don't think you can/need to worry about matching. How about:

Morgan, Elliot, Brodie, Milo, Nico, Xavier, Patrick, Ellis, Jamie, Aiden, Callum, Cameron, Inigo, Lewis, Jackson, Caspian.

Aww op Vincent is cute ! Could call him vinny/vinnie xx

Lawrence is cool (Larry as nickname?)
John - good strong name
Or my favourite Cnut (probably best spellled Kanut or Canute for obvious reasons!)
