[name_m]Hi[/name_m] berries!

[name_f][/name_f]

Years ago I fell in love with this name from a novel I was reading; I always liked it but I’m extra crushing on it lately? [name_f][/name_f] I think it would make a fun middle for my list, if not first. [name_f][/name_f] Would love to know your thoughts on this name, and also maybe some combo ideas? [name_f][/name_f] I’m thinking about [name_m]Asa[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] and [name_m]Finley[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] a lot tonight; I can’t decide if [name_m]Finley[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] feels really mismatched or not, though. [name_f][/name_f] I think [name_m]Alban[/name_m] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] or [name_m]Alban[/name_m] [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] would be nice if [name_m]Alban[/name_m] is the first. [name_f][/name_f] Also tossed about [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] and [name_m]Augustine[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] but don’t like them quite as much as [name_m]Asa[/name_m] or [name_m]Finley[/name_m].

[name_f][/name_f]

Thank you!

[name_m]Alban[/name_m] is warm and lovely [name_f][/name_f]- it’s got a cosy yet outdoorsy feel, a hint of cottagecore but with the distinction of names like [name_f]Fifer[/name_f], [name_m]Augustine[/name_m] and [name_f]Iona[/name_f].

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Asa[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] and [name_m]Finley[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] work to me [name_f][/name_f]- [name_m]Alban[/name_m] [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] is charming too [name_f][/name_f]- so cool!

[name_m]Alban[/name_m] seems to be under the radar. I don’t hear it mentioned very often at all. I like the gentle and slightly earthy vibes. I have [name_m]Albion[/name_m] on my list myself.

[name_f][/name_f]

I like [name_m]Finley[/name_m] [name_f]Alba[/name_f]. I think they work quite nicely together – they both have Celtic ties too. However, I feel like [name_m]Finley[/name_m] is a little more bubbly than [name_m]Alban[/name_m]. I think I might prefer the brightness of [name_m]Finley[/name_m] [name_f]Alba[/name_f] if that at all appeals.

[name_f][/name_f]

I also like the simplicity of [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] from your other options. I would choose that myself. Some other ideas:

I’m not fan of [name_m]Asa[/name_m] as name. I do like [name_m]Finley[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m], but it doesn’t feel like you love it. I do like [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] and [name_m]Alban[/name_m] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] is nice, so is [name_m]Alban[/name_m] [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m].

Both [name_m]Finlay[/name_m] and [name_m]Alban[/name_m] are saints’ names, so they match in that way. [name_f][/name_f] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] is a wonderful name and I’d love to meet an [name_m]Alban[/name_m] one day.

[name_f][/name_f]

I prefer [name_m]Alban[/name_m] as the first, and I do like [name_m]Alban[/name_m] [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] quite a bit.

Thanks everyone! [name_f][/name_f] I think I’m going to let [name_m]Alban[/name_m] sit and see if he continues to grow on me…
[name_f][/name_f]I like him but seeing him in all these combos was making me think “oh maybe I don’t love him that much.”

[name_f][/name_f][name_f][/name_f]

Ironically [name_m]Finley[/name_m] [name_m]Alban[/name_m] was my favorite option; just wasn’t sure stylistically the two names went together! [name_f][/name_f] I guess we’ll see with time if he grows on me more.
