My dream name has had the dreaded veto!
Would love to hear some alternatives? What I love about [name]Roman[/name] is that it is a strong name that is not overused or too ‘out there.’ I love [name]Alexander[/name] (also strong) but hated the thought of ending up with an [name]Alex[/name]. I don’t want anything that can lose its charm when shortened.
Any name Amercian or remotely American sounding need not apply!

What do you think about [name]Troy[/name] [name]Alexander[/name]? It gives me the same feel as [name]Roman[/name].
I think [name]Roman[/name] is really handsome. Here are some more ideas.

Curious - what do you mean by “American-sounding?” (I tend to agree with you, btw) What is the most American-sounding name you know?
Most of my suggestions are already listed but I do agree with [name]Zander[/name] and [name]Troy[/name]. Some others are [name]Talon[/name], [name]Nolan[/name], [name]Brady[/name], [name]Grady[/name], [name]Zane[/name], [name]Max[/name], [name]Jack[/name], [name]Jude[/name], [name]Keith[/name], [name]Austin[/name], [name]Cruz[/name], [name]Logan[/name], [name]Carter[/name], [name]Parker[/name], [name]Levi[/name], [name]Landon[/name], [name]Beckett[/name]
Thought of some more [name]Reed[/name]/[name]Reid[/name], [name]Shane[/name], [name]Colton[/name], [name]Cole[/name], [name]Cane[/name], [name]Callum[/name], [name]Rogan[/name]
Thank you! I love [name]Tobias[/name] and [name]Arlo[/name] (although I know [name]Arlo[/name] will be vetoed in a second!)
When I think of American sounding names I instantly think of names like -[name]Jayden[/name], [name]Tyler[/name], [name]Austin[/name], [name]Hunter[/name], [name]Landon[/name] etc etc! And so many surnames as first names. I think it’s awful!
Thank you everybody. Some great alternatives although I don’t think anything is ever going to come close to competing with the beautiful [name]Roman[/name] but the good news is that he is re-thinking the name. Keep your fingers crossed for me!
I love [name]Roman[/name] too! Some suggestions…
