Boy Names

I love the name [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] (nn [name_u]Alex[/name_u]) but unfortunately, my family do not like it as much. :(:frowning:

Could anyone possibly find an alternative name to [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] for me? My surname is Kaged.

Thanks everyone!

[name_m]Alastair[/name_m] / [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] or [name_m]Alasdair[/name_m] Kager is pretty cool. Also Skandar or Iskander.

What about Iskender? It is the Turkish spelling of [name_m]Alexander[/name_m].

[name_m]Anders[/name_m] or Skander/Skandar

When you say your family doesn’t care for it, who does that include? Only the parents get a vote in naming a baby. My parents disliked our boy choice, and my in laws didn’t like my daughter’s name. Now, everyone loves our kids’ names. [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t let them keep you from using a name you love.

Arcander
Maxander
[name_m]Leander[/name_m]
[name_m]Lysander[/name_m]
[name_m]Evander[/name_m]
[name_u]Alexius[/name_u]
Alexiel
[name_m]Axel[/name_m]

[name_u]Sasha[/name_u]: not too common but also not totally unheard of variation of [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_u]Alex[/name_u]: why not use the nickname as a first name?
[name_m]Alessandro[/name_m]: I’m hesitant to suggest this because if your family doesn’t like [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] I doubt they would like [name_m]Alessandro[/name_m], but then again I don’t know their style and this could be a cool alternative (it’s my personal favourite variation of [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]). Plus, you could still use [name_u]Alex[/name_u] as a nickname (I know an [name_m]Alessandro[/name_m] who does).

Similar ‘vibe’ to [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]: (so long, classic, handsome boy names)
[name_m]Nicholas[/name_m]
[name_m]Christopher[/name_m]
[name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]
[name_m]Zachary[/name_m]
[name_m]Andrew[/name_m]

Good luck!!
