Brother to Elise

Hello

I’m due in a couple of weeks and my husband and I cannot agree on a name for our little boy!

Our surname is [name_m]Dunn[/name_m]. [name_f]Sister[/name_f] is [name_f]Elise[/name_f]. I prefer traditional names that can have a nickname. My husband likes unusual names ( surnames).

My list is [name_m]Henry[/name_m] ([name_m]Harry[/name_m]), [name_m]William[/name_m] ([name_m]Will[/name_m]), [name_m]Anderson[/name_m] ([name_m]Anders[/name_m]), [name_m]Alfred[/name_m] ([name_u]Freddie[/name_u])…

Husband’s list is [name_m]Tobias[/name_m], [name_m]Ethan[/name_m], [name_u]Carter[/name_u], [name_u]Tristan[/name_u]…

We both don’t mind [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] ([name_m]Nate[/name_m]) but not in love with it!

Middle name would be [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Henry[/name_m] or [name_m]William[/name_m] (family names).

If you could suggest any other names or try to convince us of any in particular that would be great!!

Thank you x

With [name_f]Elise[/name_f], I like:

[name_m]Tobias[/name_m]
[name_m]Ethan[/name_m]
[name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Henry[/name_m]

I would try and say all your name ideas with the surname loudly and the nns with the surname and each with the middles and all three of each together, see if you can’t narrow down what you like of what you have, like if you don’t like anything with a certain name. And try them all with the sister, have her say them if she’s old enough to speak and see what she can say, some kids can’t say some names. Also what sounds good with her name, people will be putting those names next to each other for so long. All your choices are good… I mean consider If you want them to have the same first initial or not and the sname ending or not even with the nn, look over everything, maybe something will pop out or your lost will get shorter, favourite combinations may emerge…
