Baby Boy Nat?

Trying to narrow down a boy’s name, and hubby really likes [name_u]Nat[/name_u]. It would be short for [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] (a family name), but we would call him [name_u]Nat[/name_u]. I don’t know any Nats or many famous Nats, and would really like some feedback. I keep going back and forth. Thanks so much!

I would [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] to meet a [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] nicknamed [name_u]Nat[/name_u]! [name_u]Nat[/name_u] is a lot more common for a girl, so you might have people thinking he’s a girl, but it’s not unheard of on a boy. I like that it’s a bit more creative and different as a nickname, and [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] is very handsome too. I first came across [name_u]Nat[/name_u] as a boy’s name in the book No Small Thing by [name_u]Natale[/name_u] Ghent and really liked it. Also, there’s the singer [name_u]Nat[/name_u] [name_m]King[/name_m] [name_m]Cole[/name_m]. If he decides when he gets older that it’s too girly he can always go by [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] or [name_m]Jon[/name_m].

I knew a boy named [name_u]Nat[/name_u] (short for [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]) and I think it is such a classy name! It is short, sweet, and strong. It definitely worked on the high school aged boy I knew, and I can picture it on a young boy as well. Good luck!

I love it!!

I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_u]Nat[/name_u]! [name_u]Nat[/name_u] [name_m]King[/name_m] [name_m]Cole[/name_m] is a great association too, go for it!

I LOOOOOOOOOVVEEEE ITTT!! [name_m]AH[/name_m]! I read a book with a [name_u]NAT[/name_u] in it and fell in [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] with the name. Lets not mention how awesome and sweet the character was. It was short for [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m], but I think [name_m]Jonathon[/name_m], nn [name_u]Nat[/name_u] is so unique and fearlessly handsome.

Thanks so much everyone!

I agree with the others, I also love it…I also love [name_m]Nate[/name_m].

I like it:) Brings to mind [name_m]Little[/name_m] Men by [name_f]Louisa[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f] [name_u]Alcott[/name_u], which is a nice association.

[name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] nn [name_u]Nat[/name_u] is adorable and very handsome! It feels very preppy and chic!

I think [name_u]Nat[/name_u] definitely works on a boy- I picture a cool without trying , easy going, handsome guy!
