I’m looking for a boy name to go with our DD name [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] [name_u]Lynn[/name_u]. We like traditional names, but nothing is really standing out. Our last name starts with W. Also both my husband and I have m9ddle names that start with L. We could continue the trend, but then would need a middle name starting with L.
Names that are on our list so far:
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Caleb[/name_m]
[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m]
[name_m]Ian[/name_m]
[name_m]Connor[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m]
[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
[name_m]Charles[/name_m]
I like [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] and [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] the most on your list and I would think about dropping [name_m]Ian[/name_m] as I think it seems too close to [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]. Others…
I disagree, I think [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] & [name_m]Ian[/name_m] is adorable! I also like [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] & [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] with [name_f]Ivy[/name_f].
I also like [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] and [name_m]Ian[/name_m]. They just look similar but don’t sound it.
I think most of the names on your list seem excessively long next to [name_f]Ivy[/name_f].
Off of your list I like [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] and suggestions of [name_m]Julian[/name_m], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Simon[/name_m]
I think you need something with spunk that isn’t too long. What about:
[name_m]Julius[/name_m], [name_m]Leo[/name_m], [name_m]Rufus[/name_m], [name_m]Jasper[/name_m], [name_m]Felix[/name_m], Everett, Miles, Oliver
I agree that something shorter and spunky with some vintage appeal is the way to go with [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]. I like the suggestions from sarab above.
