[name_m]Hi[/name_m]! I’m in the process of revising my lists because I’m going to TTC in 2024 and boys’ names have always been challenging for me. Not in the liking-any department but in finding one that feels extra special and beloved. So I’m trying a different approach and asking what names you’d suggest based on some of my favorite girl names:
Summary
[name_f]Flora[/name_f], [name_f]Eloise[/name_f], [name_f]Harriet[/name_f], [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], [name_f]Paloma[/name_f], [name_f]Lucia[/name_f], [name_f]Millie[/name_f], [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f], [name_u]Sierra[/name_u], [name_f]Margot[/name_f], [name_f]Leonie[/name_f], [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f], [name_f]Helena[/name_f], [name_f]Greta[/name_f], [name_f]Freya[/name_f], [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Astrid[/name_f], [name_f]Pearl[/name_f], [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]
What boy names come to mind?

Thanks for all the responses! I think part of my trepidation with boy names has been that some of the names I like the most are quite popular in the US now, or on NB, or in my area, so they have a feeling of being “commonplace” and somehow less unique than some of my girl favorites. Which is silly but I think that’s why I’m having trouble feeling like they’re special enough to potentially be my son’s name… if that makes sense to anyone else
[name_f]My[/name_f] favorite suggestions have included: [name_u]Nico[/name_u] (Nicholas), [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u], [name_m]Cormac[/name_m], [name_m]Iver[/name_m], [name_u]Julian[/name_u], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Hugo[/name_m], [name_m]Otto[/name_m], [name_u]Henry[/name_u], [name_u]Leo[/name_u], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], Finley/Finnian, [name_m]Louis[/name_m], [name_u]Arthur[/name_u], [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m], [name_u]Benjamin[/name_u], [name_m]Felix[/name_m], [name_u]Alden[/name_u], [name_u]George[/name_u], [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m], [name_u]Wesley[/name_u], [name_u]John[/name_u], [name_m]Paul[/name_m], [name_u]William[/name_u] (or maybe [name_m]Willem[/name_m] could be neat)
Here’s a list of some boy’s name you might enjoy:
Summary
[name_m]Abram[/name_m] or [name_m]Abraham[/name_m]
. I’m just gonna have to move past that thought process though, because I’d rather have a name I like and is kinda popular than purposefully trying to pick something totally unheard of.
