So my husband is deadset on naming our baby [name_m]Triton[/name_m] if it’s a boy. He thinks it sounds cool and badass. Please help me come up with alternatives that I can give when I veto the name, haha. Maybe something similar that he might like. [name_f]My[/name_f] own list is still pretty much all over the place.

Welcome to Nameberry! It sounds like [name_m]Triton[/name_m] isn’t your style, but I think it leaves plenty of room for compromise in the “cool and badass” territory. @Radar7 had some great suggestions of similar-sounding names!

I really like [name_u]Archer[/name_u], [name_u]Axel[/name_u] and [name_m]Evander[/name_m] so far. I also like [name_u]Pax[/name_u] as a nickname, but I’m not really a fan of [name_u]Paxton[/name_u].

If you’re in the UK, there is a company called [name_m]Triton[/name_m] that do showers and plumbing, so you might be able to point out that your child’s name would be associated with drains. Otherwise:
[name_m]Abraxas[/name_m]
[name_m]Ares[/name_m]
[name_u]Atlas[/name_u]
[name_m]Evander[/name_m]
[name_m]Eryx[/name_m] ([name_m]Triton[/name_m] is a moon of [name_u]Neptune[/name_u], and [name_u]Neptune[/name_u]’s equivalent is [name_m]Poseidon[/name_m], and [name_m]Poseidon[/name_m] had a son called [name_m]Eryx[/name_m])

I brought up my top 3 out of these suggestions with my husband. [name_m]Evander[/name_m] he likes but isn’t 100% sold on it. [name_u]Axel[/name_u] is his favorite out of these three and he suggested [name_u]Axel[/name_u] [name_m]Triton[/name_m] (I promised to consider it. Maybe with another middle, like [name_u]Axel[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Triton[/name_m]). [name_u]Archer[/name_u] he doesn’t like so that one’s out.
The first to come to mind are [name_u]Tristan[/name_u], [name_m]Titus[/name_m] and [name_u]Tate[/name_u].
