[name_m]Hi[/name_m] berries! What are some boy names you love but won’t be using and why?

[name_m]Harrison[/name_m]- bc of the association of [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] [name_m]Ford[/name_m]
[name_m]Atticus[/name_m]- Getting popular
[name_m]Lincoln[/name_m]- same as [name_m]Atticus[/name_m], but still love this name
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m]- way to popular
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m]- same as [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]
Fievel- I think SO wouldn’t like it all(he likes names like [name_u]Chris[/name_u], [name_m]Steve[/name_m], [name_m]Rodger[/name_m], which I’m not a fan of)
[name_u]Riley[/name_u]- it became to associated w being more of a girl name
[name_u]James[/name_u]- same as [name_u]Riley[/name_u](thanks [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] [name_m]Reynolds[/name_m] and [name_u]Blake[/name_u] Lively) and bad association
[name_u]Drew[/name_u]- same as [name_u]Riley[/name_u] and have a family member w this name

[name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]- an association w one of my C.O.O.P. kids
[name_m]Milo[/name_m]- bc of the movie [name_m]Milo[/name_m] and [name_m]Otis[/name_m]

[name_u]Rory[/name_u] - sounds terrible with my surname

[name_m]Henry[/name_m] - too popular

[name_m]Reuben[/name_m] - too similar to my cousin’s name

[name_m]Winston[/name_m], [name_u]Toby[/name_u], [name_m]Tobias[/name_m], [name_u]Kai[/name_u], [name_m]Malachi[/name_m], [name_u]Keats[/name_u], [name_m]Leo[/name_m], [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] - we’ve had guinea pigs with these names

[name_u]Arlo[/name_u], [name_m]Isaac[/name_m], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] and potentially [name_m]Ezra[/name_m]-a little too popular

[name_m]Endymion[/name_m] and Galahad - maybe a little much

4

[name_m]Wolf[/name_m]-too out there I guess, maybe as a middle name
[name_u]Bellamy[/name_u]-I’d be scared people would think it’s girly
[name_m]Shepherd[/name_m]-not brave enough, plus strong religious connotations?
[name_m]Phineas[/name_m]-my family was super into phineas and ferb
[name_m]Finnick[/name_m]-the word finnicky
Any A names ([name_m]Abel[/name_m], [name_m]Abram[/name_m], [name_m]Axel[/name_m], etc)-I like [name_u]Asa[/name_u] most and they’re too similar
[name_u]Bryn[/name_u]-my name is [name_f]Brynn[/name_f] as a girl, and I don’t want to honor myself
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m]-too similar to [name_m]Bruno[/name_m]
[name_m]Thiago[/name_m]-I have no Hispanic background
[name_m]Leo[/name_m]-too popular

5

[name_m]Thomas[/name_m], [name_u]Stanley[/name_u], [name_m]Angus[/name_m], [name_m]Felix[/name_m] - too popular (I’m looking at [name_f]Scotland[/name_f] and [name_f]England[/name_f] statistics)
[name_m]Phillip[/name_m]/[name_m]Pip[/name_m] and [name_m]Clay[/name_m] - negative meaning in my native language
[name_m]Wilbur[/name_m] - hard for me to pronounce
[name_m]Harvey[/name_m] - one of my childhood friends is called [name_m]Harry[/name_m]

6

[name_m]Caius[/name_m] probably, because I ideally want to avoid same letters.
[name_u]Robin[/name_u] because it doesn’t go with our surname at all.
[name_u]Oberon[/name_u] for the same reasons as [name_m]Caius[/name_m]. I’d consider [name_u]Auberon[/name_u] though.
[name_u]August[/name_u] because it’s getting fairly popular.
[name_m]Lucifer[/name_m]… for obvious reasons.
