Boy names that capture the feeling of hearing a wind chime or a church bell

Boy Names
1

Hi guys, I’m having a baby boy. My husband and I are both fans of Kelly Clarkson. So if we had a girl, it’d be Hazel (for “Behind These Hazel Eyes”). But it’s a boy, and his name will likely be Hayes.

But seeing you guys have such wonderful naming ideas, I would like to ask for something else to consider just in case the perfect name is still out there (or save it for another child)

I’m always fascinated by things that swing and make sounds like chimes, bells, etc. Yeah, I know they can be creepy or irritating sometimes LOL

But I’m thinking of the calming wind chimes, the ethereal church bells for weddings or Christmas, etc.

So do you guys happen to know any boy name that gives off that kind of sound / imagery / essence?

All positive associations are welcome. Thank you, guys!!! Have a wonderful day!!!

[name_u]Blaine[/name_u] and [name_u]Blaise[/name_u] immediately sprang to mind. I don’t know exactly why, but I just feel these when I think of chimes or bells.

I love [name_u]Bellamy[/name_u] for a boy. Not only does it have “bell” in it, but it has a lovely musical rhythm and also a great meaning “good/beautiful friend”.

It’s probably too out there, but Chime could easily be s name. I mean, I’ve heard crazier ones :sweat_smile:

I think it’s worth having a boys’ name or two up your sleeve, esp with Hazel and Hayes being so similar? Might be tricky if you have Hazel, Hayes and Greg for eg. :wink:

Names that chime:

Dashiell
Sterling
Corbin
Stafford
Tristan
Cedar
Benedict
Gabriel
Sylvan
Rowen
Auden
Wilhelm
Lucien/Lucian (different pronunciations)
Prescott
Asher
Christopher “Kit”
Malachi
Stellan

Zachary
Edison
Jasper
Calloway / Callahan
Skylar

I just had a discussion with my husband. We both really like the flow of [name_u]Hayes[/name_u] [name_u]Winslow[/name_u]. It also feels like the literal wind that swings chimes and bells :smile: I didn’t expect to find something that goes so well with our original name!!!

[name_f]My[/name_f] first thought is [name_u]River[/name_u] or [name_u]Rio[/name_u] or [name_u]Ocean[/name_u]- this is more for the wind chimes, not the bells. Other names that spring to mind:
[name_u]Rhys[/name_u]
[name_m]Nakoa[/name_m]
[name_m]Westley[/name_m]
[name_m]Hawkins[/name_m]
[name_u]Kingston[/name_u]
[name_m]Deacon[/name_m]
[name_u]Archer[/name_u]
