With the names you are considering are you looking to break the city name trend. I like every option you put they just seem like surprises when compared to the brothers names.

Wow! I’m obsessed with your boys’ names and your current list. I’m sorry for not suggesting any but I think you have so much potential in your list already, I’ll go the route of choosing a favorite.
-[name_m]Jones[/name_m] is nice but feels just tad short next to [name_m]Boston[/name_m] and [name_u]Hollis[/name_u]. [name_u]James[/name_u] is technically one syllable (though it feels like two) and also very popular compared to your kids names, so it feels out of place.
-[name_u]Jonah[/name_u] would be really nice; I also like [name_m]Jonas[/name_m].
-[name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] is an incredibly handsome name. it makes me swoon every time I hear it. stylistically I think it works well with your kids names, but somehow feels a bit too similar to [name_u]Hollis[/name_u] when I say them out loud.
-[name_u]River[/name_u] would be wonderful! I thought the [name_m]Boston[/name_m] [name_u]River[/name_u] was a thing but when I looked it up all I find is the [name_m]Charles[/name_m] [name_u]River[/name_u]. Idk if I confused it with something else, my brain somehow thought this was a well-known landmark. Lol
-[name_u]Julian[/name_u] is one of my name loves. it’s dashing, handsome, strong and sweet, an overall perfect name and ties the siblings names together so nicely.

good luck! I can already tell whatever name you’re going to pick will be perfect!

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

Here are my thoughts on your list-

[name_u]Julian[/name_u]-I love it! It’s one of my top favorite boy names. It’s just completely handsome & charming. It sounds smart & sweet, but still perfectly boyish. It’s nice w/your boys’ names too.

[name_u]River[/name_u]-Ooh, another fantastic choice. Slightly more unique w/Julian. A little more rugged outdoorsy sounding than [name_m]Boston[/name_m] & [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], but that’s obviously not a deal breaker.

[name_m]Cyrus[/name_m]-This is an interesting choice. I don’t love it, but I don’t mind it either. It fits in well, & is unexpected.

[name_u]Jonah[/name_u]-This is a great name. Very kind, simple & just lovable. It’s pretty popular though, & a fairly different style from your crew in my opinion.

[name_m]Jones[/name_m]-Meh, I don’t care for this as a fn. Seems awkward. [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] would be cool!

[name_u]James[/name_u]-I really like [name_u]James[/name_u], even though it’s quite over done. It’s a handsome name. I’m not a huge fan of [name_u]Jamie[/name_u] for a boy, but it’s not awful & fits in well. I love the nns [name_u]Jem[/name_u] & Jass for [name_u]James[/name_u].

A few more ideas-

[name_u]August[/name_u]

[name_u]Amos[/name_u]

[name_u]Asa[/name_u]

[name_u]Claude[/name_u]

[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]

[name_u]Elliott[/name_u]

Your boys have cool names. I like the repeating ‘o’ sound. [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_m]Josiah[/name_m] to continue that trend. Or [name_u]Rory[/name_u]?

[name_u]Love[/name_u] rafferty. [name_m]Can[/name_m]’t get husband on board! :roll_eyes:

I feel the same about [name_u]Jonah[/name_u]. It’s my husbands favorite and he’s held a candle for it through all our boys. I just… can’t get myself to love it! Thanks for the input. Helps a lot :heart:

First thoughts were

Everett
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u]
[name_u]Jordan[/name_u]
[name_m]Joshua[/name_m] (like [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] Tree)
[name_m]Jaxon[/name_m]
[name_u]Dallas[/name_u]
[name_m]Diego[/name_m] or [name_m]Tiago[/name_m]
[name_m]Silas[/name_m]
[name_u]Jules[/name_u] on it’s own is pretty cool
[name_u]Cameron[/name_u]
[name_u]Camden[/name_u]
[name_m]Wells[/name_m]

Of your picks probably [name_u]James[/name_u], but I worry it’s a bit common compared to his brothers!

First off, [name_m]Boston[/name_m] and [name_u]Hollis[/name_u] sound SO cool for siblings. Very dapper but also masculine as well! I think from your list, [name_u]River[/name_u] and [name_m]Jones[/name_m] work really well. Both have the same unique feel while still being masculine, and they feel like a natural addition.

I personally LOVE the name [name_u]Jonah[/name_u] and quite like [name_u]Julian[/name_u] and [name_u]James[/name_u]/Jamie. All are strong and handsome names that I think wear well at any age and retain masculinity while also being a little softer. While I think [name_m]Boston[/name_m] and [name_u]Hollis[/name_u] share this quality, they seem a little too unique to go with more traditional names like these. I’m fairly indifferent about [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m]/Cy, but for your set, I think it clashes a little with [name_u]Hollis[/name_u]. I just don’t think any of them work as well as [name_u]River[/name_u] or [name_m]Jones[/name_m]!

Some other suggestions (apologies for any repeats):
[name_u]Ash[/name_u]
[name_u]Beckett[/name_u]/Beck
[name_u]Brooks[/name_u]*
[name_u]Clancy[/name_u]
[name_u]Davis[/name_u]
[name_m]Deacon[/name_m]
[name_m]Fielding[/name_m]
[name_u]Finn[/name_u]
[name_m]Fletcher[/name_m]
[name_u]Flynn[/name_u]
[name_m]Foster[/name_m]*
[name_m]Graham[/name_m]*
[name_m]Grant[/name_m]
[name_u]Gray[/name_u]*
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m]*
[name_m]Langston[/name_m]
[name_u]Park[/name_u]
[name_u]Penn[/name_u]
[name_u]Perry[/name_u]
[name_m]Pierce[/name_m]
[name_m]Piers[/name_m]*
[name_m]Thatcher[/name_m]
[name_m]Wells[/name_m]
[name_m]Whittaker[/name_m]
[name_u]Wilder[/name_u]*

I marked all the ones I really like with an asterisk. The ones that really stand out to me though are [name_m]Foster[/name_m], [name_u]Gray[/name_u], [name_m]Harrison[/name_m], [name_m]Piers[/name_m] and [name_u]Wilder[/name_u]. I think they all complement really well and offer something different to add to your sibset, depending on what you’re going for.

Boston, [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_m]Foster[/name_m]
[name_m]Boston[/name_m], [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_u]Gray[/name_u]
[name_m]Boston[/name_m], [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_m]Harrison[/name_m]
[name_m]Boston[/name_m], [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_m]Piers[/name_m]
[name_m]Boston[/name_m], [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_u]Wilder[/name_u]

My personal favorite is definitely [name_m]Boston[/name_m], [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_m]Foster[/name_m]. I think it’s so perfectly balanced and has all the right sounds and styles while still having three distinctly different names. [name_m]Foster[/name_m] just fits flawlessly with your other boys! [name_f]My[/name_f] runner up is [name_m]Boston[/name_m], [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_m]Harrison[/name_m], as I think it just rolls off the tongue. [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] is almost like the perfect mashup of [name_m]Boston[/name_m] and [name_u]Hollis[/name_u] while still being totally unique. Taking third is [name_u]Wilder[/name_u]. It’s so offbeat and different but not quite popular yet. It’s the perfect time to jump on in.

So in order:

  1. Foster - [name_m]Boston[/name_m], [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_m]Foster[/name_m]
  2. Harrison - [name_m]Boston[/name_m], [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_m]Harrison[/name_m]
  3. Boston, [name_u]Hollis[/name_u], and [name_u]Wilder[/name_u]

No matter what you choose, you’ve got a solid set of boy names that are all really great! I know whatever you decide will be just right for you. Best of luck!

[name_u]River[/name_u] seems absolutely perfect to me!

Julian, [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] and [name_m]Jones[/name_m] seem too plain next to [name_m]Boston[/name_m] and hollis. [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] and river seem like a better fit strong text

From your list I would choose [name_m]Jones[/name_m].

Love jones. I would also suggest [name_m]Ford[/name_m]!

Love your boys names. I’d suggest [name_u]Cooper[/name_u] or [name_m]Ford[/name_m]!
