What boy names would you use if you were bold enough?

[TheNameNerd]

Which unusual or old fashioned boy names would you use if you were given free rein and no negative judgement was allowed? (I’ll make another thread for girls names)

I love Tycho and Darwin.

Painter really?
I don't even think I've heard that as a surname

Ha, DS's name always comes up on these threads! But I also know loads of kids with other names listed, so I must just live in a bold town 😆

I was vetoed for Jos and Kit.

Otto

Kermit - I think it's a beautiful name, but all everybody would instantly think of is the frog!

Isaiah

I'm surprised at two people saying Nathaniel. That's far from an uncommon name already.

Auden

Romeo

We’ve got a Sebastian.. DH wanted Etienne.. 🙄

Rafferty
Cash
Kit

Thadius
aloysius

Linden
llywelyn
Gwilym

Rufus or Hugo

Fabian.

Last time i was preg i begged DH to consider it if baby was a boy. He ruled it out totally. (and baby was a girl)

Beowulf

For boys. Aloysius and Jesse..both family names. We didn't use them we were 'bold enough' to but we chose 2 other names that seemed to 'fit'. However, I do like Diggory and Lawrence as well. No family connection there. If we had girls they would have been Nancy/ Audrey ( soz saw you starting one for girls..eek)

Ambrose is fab! Forgot that was on our list..well mine!

Both my sons’ names are mentioned here
I clearly have balls of steel 🤣

Quite a few of these names in the school I work in!

August
Inigo
Leandro
Bruno

I know a baby Elvis!

Ivor (the Engine)

Florian

You've unlocked a memory! Now I am wracking my brain for where Matella, Quintus and Grumio were. Pretty sure Grumio was in the kitchen😂
