Cant decide on a boys name.... What are your top five?

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] There! [name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I are expecting our 5th, yes 5th and baby names have ALWAYS came easily. But this time we are stuck. We have two boys and two girls. [name_u]Layne[/name_u] [name_f]Emma[/name_f], [name_f]Lily[/name_f] [name_u]Bryn[/name_u], [name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] and [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] [name_u]Reese[/name_u]. We are incapable of finding another boys name. I like names that are a little different but still in the semi-traditional name and so does my husband. We both agree that we can’t have a “son” name i.e. [name_m]Greyson[/name_m], or similar because our last name is [name_m]Johnson[/name_m]. I like nicknames just as much as whole names.
So far our list includes;

[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]George[/name_m] (which actually isn’t a favorite of mine at all)

but that is it. :frowning:
I love reading everyones ideas and suggestions. They are definitely welcome and appreciated! [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have a top 5?
Thanks so much!

Here are 5 that I love and consider traditional but a little different:

[name_u]Robin[/name_u]
[name_m]Alistair[/name_m]
[name_m]Victor[/name_m]
[name_m]Russell[/name_m]
[name_m]Jerome[/name_m]

[name_f]My[/name_f] top 5 are:
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m]
[name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]
[name_m]Ptolemy[/name_m]
[name_m]Artemus[/name_m]
[name_m]Horatio[/name_m]

Congratulations! Very nice names. [name_f]My[/name_f] son is [name_m]Abel[/name_m], which I think would go nice in your sibset. In fact, his middle name is [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m]. Most of my favorite name are in my signature. Good luck!
