Alternatives that are less common?

Boy Names
1

Most of my favourite names for my son are fairly popular where I live so I’d love to hear if you have any suggestions for me based on them that are less common.

[name_u]Michael[/name_u]
[name_m]Declan[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_m]Liam[/name_m]
[name_m]Leon[/name_m]
[name_u]Flynn[/name_u]
[name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_u]Jordan[/name_u]
[name_u]Micah[/name_u]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u]
[name_u]Flynn[/name_u]
[name_m]Andrew[/name_m]
[name_m]Daniel[/name_m]
[name_u]Logan[/name_u]

the popularity of these names doesn’t bother me though as they’re not as common so I would still use them:
[name_m]Gideon[/name_m]
[name_m]Aaron[/name_m]
[name_m]Adam[/name_m]
[name_m]Travis[/name_m]
[name_m]Josiah[/name_m]
[name_m]Ned[/name_m] (although I’m unsure about whether this would just be [name_m]Ned[/name_m] or if I’d find a full name for it. I posted a thread about this too)
[name_m]Isaiah[/name_m]
Ezra

I’d love to hear any suggestions that you have! Thank you! :slight_smile:

[name_u]Michael[/name_u]- [name_m]Mikael[/name_m] [Mee-ka-el], [name_m]Mikhail[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]- [name_m]Samson[/name_m], Samwise, [name_m]Ishmael[/name_m]/[name_m]Ismael[/name_m], [name_m]Lemuel[/name_m]
[name_u]Jordan[/name_u]- [name_m]Joran[/name_m], [name_m]Jaron[/name_m]
[name_u]Micah[/name_u]- [name_u]Mika[/name_u], [name_u]Milan[/name_u]

[name_m]Andrew[/name_m]- [name_m]Andreas[/name_m]
[name_m]Daniel[/name_m]- [name_m]Dashiell[/name_m]

some might be too far of a stretch for people to see them as alternatives to the names, but It’s harder than it looks :wink:

[name_m]Liam[/name_m] - [name_u]Lian[/name_u] maybe?
[name_m]Leon[/name_m] - [name_m]Leo[/name_m]? Still probably quite common. You could try [name_m]Leander[/name_m]?
[name_u]Flynn[/name_u] - [name_u]Finn[/name_u] or [name_u]Finley[/name_u] maybe? These are actually more common where I live, but they might be less common where you are. (I’ve never met a [name_u]Flynn[/name_u] myself).
[name_m]Henry[/name_m] - [name_m]Harvey[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u] - Naol, [name_u]Niall[/name_u]

But where do you live? It’s hard to say without knowing.

I assume not the USA, since [name_m]Adam[/name_m] and [name_m]Aaron[/name_m] are both more common than a lot of the names on the first list?
