A Quartet of Boys! đŸŽŒ

reviving this because I love my boys’ names right now!

[name_m]August[/name_m] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m][name_f][/name_f] :sun:
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]August[/name_m] has been a favorite name of mine for years! I love his soft, warm, summery sound, and his potential nicknames. [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] is an honor for my mom, Kr!sta, who’s one of my best friends and inspirations. [name_f]In[/name_f] addition to this, I also love the meaning “bearer of Christ” as an honor for my faith, and his cuddly but classic feel I think balances out [name_m]August[/name_m] nicely.
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Gilbert[/name_m] [name_m]Benedict[/name_m][name_f][/name_f] :herb:
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Gilbert[/name_m] is for my favorite book and one of my favorite characters, [name_m]Gilbert[/name_m] [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] from [name_f]Anne[/name_f] of [name_m]Green[/name_m] [name_m]Gables[/name_m].[name_f][/name_f] I love that [name_m]Gilbert[/name_m] is a sort of “old-fashioned old man name” but also a name I think would be so cute & fresh on a little boy! [name_m]Benedict[/name_m] I love for his classic-but-not common feel and the literary ties from Shakespeare’s As [name_m]You[/name_m] [name_m]Like[/name_m] It,[name_f][/name_f] which also happens to be my favorite [name_m]Shakespeare[/name_m] play! I also love Benedict’s meaning of “blessed” as any son I have in the future will be a blessing to me.
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Jem[/name_m] [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m][name_f][/name_f] :blueberries:
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Jem[/name_m] on it’s own as a first name is a relatively new addition to my list! One of my top names in the past was [name_m]James[/name_m] with the nickname [name_m]Jem[/name_m], but I’ve come to love “just” [name_m]Jem[/name_m] recently. [name_m]Jem[/name_m] doesn’t have any special connections, but I love his boyish & sweet feel that I think works so well with my other names. [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m] is not only a naturey, cottagecore name, but also another tie to my faith—I love the description of [name_m]Christ[/name_m] as the Good [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m], and us as His lambs.

[name_m]Robin[/name_m] [name_m]Glen[/name_m][name_f][/name_f] :lady_beetle:
[name_f][/name_f]I love the literary ties of [name_m]Robin[/name_m], from [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_m]Robin[/name_m] to [name_m]Robin[/name_m] [name_m]Hood[/name_m]. I also love the nature connection, as there are a lot of robins where I live, and seeing a robin is always a sign that spring is coming! [name_m]Glen[/name_m] is my dad & granddad’s name, as well as my youngest brother’s middle name. With [name_m]Robin[/name_m] he feels soft, naturey, and springtime-esque, which is everything I love in a boys name.
