I am continuing the search for boy names for our future child! DH and I seem to agree far more on girl names, so I thought I’d try to look at it from that perspective. What boy names do YOU think are similar in style or feel to our girls list?! [name_f]Lillian[/name_f] seems to be the one that DH likes the most on the girls list. Thanks!!
Hmmm… I think cute vintage-y names work for you. Ones that come to mind:
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] ([name_u]Theo[/name_u])
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u]
[name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m]
[name_m]Maxwell[/name_m]
[name_u]Reid[/name_u]
[name_u]Jameson[/name_u]
[name_m]Griffin[/name_m]
[name_f]Brighton[/name_f]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u]
Here are some suggestions for boys names similar in style to [name_f]Lillian[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f].
[name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m]
[name_u]August[/name_u]
[name_u]Everett[/name_u]
[name_m]Luther[/name_m]
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m]
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]
[name_m]Tobias[/name_m]
[name_m]Miles[/name_m]
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m]
[name_m]Frederick[/name_m]
[name_m]Maxwell[/name_m]
[name_m]Walter[/name_m]
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_u]Laurence[/name_u]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m] (not with Liilian and [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f])
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] (not with [name_f]Violet[/name_f])
Great suggestions everyone!! We both do like [name_u]Theo[/name_u], but I’m not sure it’s “the one.” I think I prefer just [name_u]Theo[/name_u] over [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] bc I think you’re less likely to get the [name_m]Ted[/name_m] or [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] nn? But then I question if [name_u]Theo[/name_u] is a full name on its own? I like [name_m]Silas[/name_m] but DH has vetoed that one I actually suggested [name_u]August[/name_u] to DH just the other day, and I think he thought I was joking? Haha he didn’t give me a yes or no on that one…[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] is another one that I have been contemplating, as well as [name_m]Eli[/name_m]/[name_m]Elijah[/name_m], and [name_m]Griffin[/name_m]. I feel like I SHOULD love [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] as it seems to fit well with our girl names, but I just don’t for some reason. Trying to let it grow on me
I like [name_m]Milo[/name_m] but I can’t use because a friend has already used it! I’m not a huge fan of [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] or [name_u]Elliot[/name_u].
I like [name_m]Felix[/name_m], and I have been considering [name_m]Arthur[/name_m], but I HATE [name_m]Art[/name_m] for a nickname and I think that’s inevitable…
Ok how about…
[name_m]Evander[/name_m]
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]
[name_m]Otto[/name_m]
[name_m]Casper[/name_m]
[name_m]Zachary[/name_m]
[name_u]Arlo[/name_u]
[name_f]Lillian[/name_f] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] all seem of a piece to me, but [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] (at least spelled that way) seems more modern and altered.
It sounds as if you like romantic, quiet, old-fashioned girls’ names.
Your first three choices would be seemly on a teacher or librarian more so than a can can girl.
