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.

Fergus love that name

Jay-bez.

I love Rafferty so much! My husband was a firm no on it though

My ds's name has been mentioned too.

Hector

I think 'Jay-bez' pronunciation

Amairgin
Cosmo

Edgar

Maximilian, Lucifer, Jasper, Serge, Dmitry.

(I appreciate Serge and Dmitry are not unusual names for plenty of cultures, but they would be for mine.)

Peak Mumsnet

Conrad

Lando, I love it, I think it's so cool.

I could live with people asking if I love Star Wars as I've never actually seen all the films, but alas, we are big F1 fans and it would be far harder to convince people that it wasn't linked 😬

Why? i guess its regional?
They are all standard classical names, like William, Oliver, Samuel etc.
Why are they bold? I get unusual names, or creative names. But fairly common classical names I don’t get.
Maybe what you would consider a standard name is bold for me!

Gideon

Jolyan

Orlando
Caspar
Fabian

I think Arcadia would work beautifully for a girl.

My ds’s name has been mentioned at least 3 times!

Cedric but i had 2 girls

Napoleon

Caspien, Casper, Cosmo. Wasn’t allowed any of them and went with Alistair instead

Merlin. My husband was very set on Fyfe for a while. Thankfully I convinced him otherwise

My DS name is on here, I love it.

Isambard

my Fabian is 20 this month! Its a great name!
