Boys Names

[Littlebee1990]

Found out we’re having a baby boy and obviously the only names we liked are girls so I’d love to hear anyone’s boy names. Partners surname is a colour so anything colour related is out 😂

I’ll contribute when we’ve thought of some.. the only name we both like at the moment is Harry

Firstly, how exciting, congratulations Whats your heritage?Any traditional names to chose
James always works and diminutives Jamie,Jimmy,Jim
Lucas
Oliver
Andrew
Riley
Sean
Cormoran

Love old traditional family names. Do you have any you could use?

Mine &DHs

Christopher
John
Gerrard
Noel
Joseph
Arthur
Patrick
Simon
Connor
Cameron

I also like Eamonn & Niall

Thanks so much @HeelsHandbagPerfumeCoffee - love some of those suggestions thank you!
No family names we’d want to use tbh, both our dads & our grandads names are all a bit too old fashioned for our liking (not traditional, just old fashioned and not ones you’d ever hear now!)

Thank you

Heritage, are you Irish, Scottish,welsh,English? Names from those groups?
Yes I like Niall too

It’s always a laugh picking baby names as inevitably you’ll like something and other Partner will loathe it as it reminds of a school mate or some such

Me and partner are having a nightmare with this. Every name I suggest, he hates because someone he knew with that name was a twat 😂 And every name he suggests I don’t like because it reminds me of something... such as Arlo- The Good Dinosaur 😂

Some of my faves are-
• Ezra (think this is my top at the moment)
• Oliver
• Oscar
• Greysen
• Jakob
• Nolan

Hope you find the perfect name soon 💕

@HeelsHandbagPerfumeCoffee sorry didn’t answer that part, we’re both English! Ha you’ve hit the nail on the head, I suggest and he hates and he suggests and I hate! Thankfully we’ve got 20 weeks to decide! X

Thank you @HappyDaze90, some great names there! Oh yeah I suggested a name earlier and got “nah I went to school with a *** & he was a twat” 😂

I know you’ll suggest an innocuous name and it’s a whole story of why Josh is the name of Satan spawn and what Josh did to get that reputation

@Littlebee1990 I'm having this issue with names as well but I also like Harry

From 6 weeks I only had one name stuck in my head and didn't budge, luckily it was a boy (I knew it) but here's some of DH suggestions:

Ezra
Keir
Enzo
Oscar
Harry
Jake
Roman
Elliott

Good luck and congratulations!

@HappyDaze90 I work with primary school kids and DH works with 16-25yo so we always knew one 'name suggestion' we hated because they reminded us of a little shit.

On our list if baby was a boy was

Gabriel (what baby would have been named)
Gideon
Jakobi
Nikolai

There's a baby name tinder app if you want some fun and have nowhere to start! You and your partner both sign up and put in the sex then "swipe" the ones you like and it tells you when you get matches. Lots of weird american names but all the classics too!
