Ash, Cove, or Sky for a boy?

Big brother would be Robin

Also, why?

Thank you :smiley:

[name_u]Cove[/name_u] just vibes better with [name_u]Robin[/name_u], unless you want to go for a flying theme then [name_u]Sky[/name_u] would be the one.

I like all three, but I just love the sound and imagery of [name_u]Sky[/name_u] the most! I think [name_u]Robin[/name_u] and [name_u]Sky[/name_u] would be so cute as brothers too :slightly_smiling_face:

I don’t think you can really go wrong here.

I like all three names. [name_f]My[/name_f] personal preference is [name_u]Ash[/name_u]. I LOVE this name for a boy. [name_u]Sky[/name_u] is also nice, though I prefer it for a girl and spelled [name_u]Skye[/name_u]. [name_u]Cove[/name_u] is a very cool name, but I know some people may associate it with Covid.

But my first thought still stands: I don’t think you can go wrong here. All three are great.

I voted for [name_u]Ash[/name_u] because:
I have positive associations with people who have that name. I like the way the two nature names feel cohesive but aren’t at all matchy or remotely similar sound wise. [name_u]Robin[/name_u] & [name_u]Cove[/name_u] sound a little flat together, and I need some more time for [name_u]Cove[/name_u] to grow on me (wonderful imagery, I need to warm to the sound). [name_u]Sky[/name_u] is a beautiful name, but again I don’t love it so much with [name_u]Robin[/name_u].

a ramble where I try to explain why!

[name_u]Robin[/name_u] is so well established as a person name, it being given to the bird runs as a parallel association, an extra perk. [name_u]Ash[/name_u] feels similar. [name_u]Sky[/name_u] is a fresher nature name turned person name, it’s slightly more striking and surprising.

[name_f]My[/name_f] favourite is [name_u]Cove[/name_u] :ocean:

He’s soft, whimsical, outdoorsy and sounds very handsome with R0bin. I like how both names share that ‘o’ sound which makes the pairing feel very melodic.

I think [name_u]Sky[/name_u] is super cool on a boy. If I met brothers [name_u]Robin[/name_u] & [name_u]Sky[/name_u], I would be over the moon!

Thank you for explaining so clearly! I have a lot of the same thoughts.

I like [name_u]Sky[/name_u] the most but you’re right, it is not as established as a human name as [name_u]Ash[/name_u]. I also do like [name_u]Cove[/name_u], as it has a unique ‘O’ sound that you don’t often hear except at the end of some names. I just don’t know if I would choose it my son quite yet.

Thank you for your opinion! It is a melodic pairing, isn’t it? I love the imagery that [name_u]Cove[/name_u] provides.

I think it is cool, too. Not too matchy-matchy?

Definitely not - it is a sweet sibling connection if anything!

[name_u]Sky[/name_u] and [name_u]Robin[/name_u] sound wonderful together! [name_u]Sky[/name_u] is an amazing name! [name_u]Bright[/name_u], colorful and sweet.
[name_u]Ash[/name_u] would be my second choice. I like [name_u]Ash[/name_u] as a nickname, but as a full name, I don’t love it. The sound is beautiful but as a word name, the meaning is not the best, in my opinion.
[name_u]Cove[/name_u] is unique. The meaning in [name_f]English[/name_f] is interesting. However, it makes me think about other similar words that are not a great association. (cova - grave in Portuguese; couve - kale in Portuguese; covid)

I voted for [name_u]Ash[/name_u]. I’m coming around to [name_u]Sky[/name_u] on a boy, but to me it still feels pretty feminine. I’m working on seeing it as more unisex, though! [name_u]Cove[/name_u] to me is cool, but… I dunno. It feels really ~trendy~ and ~Instagram influencer~. [name_u]Ash[/name_u] I always thought was really underrated as a name. I’m a 90s kid so I grew up watching [name_u]Ash[/name_u] on Pokemon and I was surprised when I got into names to find out that it wasn’t really used as a first name. It has so much potential! I think it carries well as a full name on its own and ages well too.

[name_f]My[/name_f] personal favorite is [name_u]Cove[/name_u] but I chose [name_u]Ash[/name_u] because I think it fits well with [name_u]Robin[/name_u].

[name_u]Cove[/name_u] and [name_u]Sky[/name_u] seem too trendy to go with [name_u]Robin[/name_u]. Both are amazing names, they just don’t have the same vibe as [name_u]Robin[/name_u].

I vote [name_u]Ash[/name_u] which sounds great next to [name_u]Robin[/name_u]. I guess unpopular opinion but [name_u]Robin[/name_u] and [name_u]Sky[/name_u] are a little too much for me. I feel like you’re locked into a flying/bird theme for any further siblings too

If you only plan to have the 2 boys, I adore the theme of [name_u]Robin[/name_u] and [name_u]Sky[/name_u] and love how soft they are. I just worry if any other siblings came along you’d feel locked into the theme.

So ultimately, my vote went to [name_u]Ash[/name_u]. I love the way it pairs with [name_u]Robin[/name_u] whilst being its own thing. [name_u]Ash[/name_u] also has a similar vibe to me as [name_u]Robin[/name_u], seeing as they are both word names. It’s cool and to the point and I just love a good short name!

I love [name_u]Cove[/name_u] but wouldn’t work w my last name. I also really do like [name_u]Ash[/name_u]. Both great. Not a fan of [name_u]Sky[/name_u].
