I have been lurking slightly for a little while so thought it was about time I posted.
My partner and I have been talking for some time about when we would have children and we are most likely to be TTC in the next year. So we have been throwing around some names, girl names haven’t really been a problem ([name]Carys[/name] [name]Amelia[/name] [name]Grace[/name] and [name]Cora[/name] being in contention) but boys names are.
I’m hoping that you guys can give us some suggestions that would appeal to both of us as we seem to have very different ideas.
Your tastes seem to be more classic, while your partner’s seem more eclectic. Have you tried nymbler? It’s very hit or miss, but sometimes it yields good results. You could both enter your top 2 or 3 and see what it comes up with.
Here are a few suggestions from me:
If he likes [name]Oscar[/name], maybe you’d both like [name]Oliver[/name] or [name]Owen[/name]?
If he likes [name]Clinton[/name] ([name]Clint[/name]) and you like [name]Caleb[/name] maybe you’d both like [name]Callum[/name] ([name]Cal[/name]) or [name]Calvin[/name] ([name]Cal[/name]), [name]Glendon[/name] ([name]Glen[/name]), [name]Linden[/name] or [name]Gideon[/name]?
If you like [name]Archer[/name], maybe you’d both like [name]Arthur[/name] or [name]Adrian[/name] or [name]Asher[/name]?

[name]Tobias[/name] nn [name]Toby[/name]

[name]Jude[/name]
[name]Aaron[/name]
[name]Levi[/name]
[name]Micah[/name]
Thank you for your help! Some of these have come up between us before and have been thrown out for various reasons, here’s some of my thoughts
[name]Oliver[/name] or [name]Owen[/name] - [name]Oliver[/name] is a no according to him but [name]Owen[/name] could be an option
[name]Callum[/name] ([name]Cal[/name]) or [name]Calvin[/name] ([name]Cal[/name]), [name]Glendon[/name] ([name]Glen[/name]), [name]Linden[/name] or [name]Gideon[/name] - [name]Callum[/name] is already a boy in my family and I’m not a fan of the others, my BF likes [name]Gideon[/name] though
[name]Arthur[/name] or [name]Adrian[/name] or [name]Asher[/name] - None of these I like, I think that I can sway him to [name]Archer[/name] though
[name]Gavin[/name] - don’t like at all
[name]Everett[/name]
[name]Elliot[/name]
[name]Austin[/name]
[name]Jack[/name]
[name]Isaac[/name]
[name]Tobias[/name] nn [name]Toby[/name] - I like this but was his dog’s name
[name]Simon[/name]
[name]Corbin[/name]
[name]Elijah[/name] - I like this
[name]Jude[/name] - I like this
[name]Aaron[/name] - too common
[name]Levi[/name] - a friend’s daughter’s name (I know! daughter!)
[name]Micah[/name]
The others I will put on a list for him to go through - no doubt he’ll want to stick with [name]Ulysses[/name] though - stubborn!
[name]Ulysses[/name] makes me chuckle, definitely at the other end of the spectrum from [name]Jacob[/name]. [name]Do[/name] you like any of the names from his list? Well, here are some more ideas.
[name]Lincoln[/name]
[name]Clay[/name]
[name]Jonah[/name]
[name]Ross[/name]
[name]Eamon[/name]
[name]Bennett[/name]
[name]August[/name]
[name]Holden[/name]
[name]Roman[/name]
[name]Grant[/name]
[name]Miles[/name]
[name]Abram[/name]
