Names for baby boy

[BakedPotatoBeansCheeseColeslaw]

Husband and I can’t agree on any potential boy names for baby. He doesn’t seem to like any at all and just keeps suggesting we call a baby boy Paul after his dad and cousin 🙄

Baby boy names I like:
Elliot
Isaac
Declan
Niall
Patrick
Harvey
Nathan
Dexter
Stanley
Axel
Marcus
Marshall
Ambrose
Anderson
Jack
Hayden
Callum
Fraser
Samson
Austin
Jake
Darcy

I feel like I have suggested so many names and he literally hates ALL of them. Are they really so awful?

My nephew was born on Tuesday, they have called him Joseph, which he really suits.

Oh I remember this happening obviously but I didn’t remember the name. I’m not sure people would make the obvious connection in the same way they would for Adolf

@littleoneandme , Congratulations. Nice name.

I quite like Paulie as a nickname - it’s a proper name Paul, nothing wrong with it

You seem flippant about it.😦It was national news and people will not forget it, and nor should they. Absolutely shocking tragedy.

No doubt the good MN-ers will be on to tell me I'm all wrong but I haven't met a child called Paul so whilst it might not seem to coordinate with other names in the family, why not go with it? Many families have a few similar style names and then an outlier ..

@tarheelbaby , Paul was a top 10 name in the 1950s - 1980s, currently number 586. Number 1 name in the mid 1970s.

Timothy
Morris
Robert
Rupert
David
Reuben
Liam
Ethan

Rowan
Ashley
Reed

not heard of Clio before, just Cleo.

@timoteigirl , Greek goddess of history and lyre playing.

I like Paul.

Paul John is a strong and handsome name.

Apolla John
Pavlos John
Patrick Paul John - Tricky Paul - same initial as Paul.
John Dominic Paul
John Nicholas Paul
John Lennon Paul McCartney
Charles Paul John
Thomas Paul John

Use John as the first name

John Paul Surname is smart. Nick name Beetle

Why not Paul John George Ringo?

John Paul sounds dated - Pope John Paul, John Paul Getty, John Paul Jones etc.

I like John Paul and Paul John (JP and PJ) I know multiple lovely people called both names

She said they already had several Pauls in the family. Her father in law and her husband's cousin are Pauls but also more importantly she doesn't want to use that name.
OP I would ask him to choose some other names. The names you have agreed on for girls names are non traditional it's interfering that he is willing to consider unusual names for a girl but not a boy..
Could you try one of those name choosing apps that work a bit like dating apps. I've know. A could of people who have agreed on a name by using them

Maybe the hubby just wants to please his relatives?

Renault Clio…
