[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all, this is my first post, so bare with me!
[name_f][/name_f]
SO and I have a son named [name_m]Baker[/name_m] [name_m]Campbell[/name_m] (Baker was my maiden name). I’m not expecting our second yet, just a name lover and in search to strengthen our name list, especially for boys. [name_f]My[/name_f] SO is more pickier than me. We both work with children so it feels like every name reminds of a child we work with / worked with. I’m not opposed to something a bit different as long it doesn’t have a crazy spelling. Ideally, we would like a name that does not start with B. We would like to stay away from names that end with -son as it clashes with our last name too much. Other than that, all other names are free game!

Names I have always adored, but cannot use / SO isn’t on board:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Nolan[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
Names SO likes (I’m okay with the style, not the names)
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Brigham[/name_m] or [name_m]Briggs[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
Some we both have liked:

[name_m]Jones[/name_m]
I love your taste in boys’ names!

Maybe you would like…
@EaglesEyes [name_f][/name_f] You definitely hit the style exactly! Some we’ve discussed prior (Legend, [name_m]Wells[/name_m], [name_m]Bridger[/name_m], [name_m]Denver[/name_m] and Truett). I do like [name_m]Oakes[/name_m], [name_m]Knox[/name_m], [name_m]Waylon[/name_m], [name_m]Heath[/name_m] and [name_m]Ramsey[/name_m] which I don’t believe we’ve talked about. A couple others have been names of kiddos we know / knew (I know it seems probably crazy, but we just picture the prior kiddo with the name). Thank you!

[name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any grandmothers with maiden names you like as first names? Sometimes the family tree has some hidden gems!

i hope you find something you love!
@EdgeOfTheMeadow oohh I will have to take a look at some other family last names. Really hadn’t thought about that, honestly! I know Campbell is likely a more common last name, but we just happened to like the name with Baker. In regards to your suggestions, I’m really liking Rhodes, Rook (seems like it’s missing something though), Palmer, and Halston. Thank you!
@WhiteGardenia Slater is really cute! Never met one. It does remind me of Saved by the Bell though haha. I like Gardner, Gable and Torin too! Thank you!
@emeraldsea Wow, so many darling suggestions. I’m liking Boone, Coy, Fielding, Granger, Macsen, McCoy, Oakes, Remington / Remy, Townsend, Weslan, Windsor, and Winslow. Thank you!

What about:
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Bridger[/name_m] (feels reminiscent of [name_m]Riggs[/name_m] and Briggs/Brigham)
[name_f][/name_f]
Good luck!
I’m really loving [name_m]Jones[/name_m] with Baker!!

@ashthedreamer Thank you! I’m loving Calloway, Rory, Whittaker, Bates, Quincy and Finnian.
@river_dweller Jones has always been one of my favorites. I love Whit and Rocky as nicknames! I’m also really liking Sterling, Roswell, Ferris and Fraser. Thank you!
@Ehrob1 I’m liking Alden, Adler and Hanley. Thank you!
I’ll be running these all by my SO to see what we can add to our boy list that we both agree on
