Our baby boy is 11 days old and my husband and i can’t agree on a name. We had it narrowed down to two: [name_u]Ari[/name_u] or [name_m]Torin[/name_m]. But since we can’t agree, I’m wondering if we should just start looking again. Thoughts? Suggestions? We want something unusual or uncommon, preferably with a lovely meaning. Our last name is Irish and starts with Mc.
[name_m]Killian[/name_m] is Irish
[name_m]Aries[/name_m] is nice
That seems to be a real stalemate and I would suggest you start over. Are there some names that came close that maybe you perhaps could revisit? You have a good surname because it’ll probably sound nice with lots of names. I’ll suggest a few that may fill the bill…
[name_m]Piers[/name_m]/[name_m]Pierce[/name_m]
[name_m]Mannix[/name_m]
[name_u]Sullivan[/name_u]
[name_m]Ridge[/name_m]
[name_m]Callum[/name_m]
[name_m]Nash[/name_m]
[name_m]Holt[/name_m]
[name_m]Tennyson[/name_m]
[name_m]How[/name_m] About
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m]
[name_m]Odin[/name_m]
[name_m]Axel[/name_m]
[name_m]Orson[/name_m]
[name_m]Ivan[/name_m]
[name_u]Orion[/name_u]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Titus[/name_m]
[name_m]Milo[/name_m]
[name_m]Roarke[/name_m] or [name_m]Finnigan[/name_m] nn [name_u]Finn[/name_u] are two Irish names I like.
I like [name_m]Torin[/name_m] and I love [name_u]Ari[/name_u] as a nn for [name_m]Aristotle[/name_m].
[name_m]Eamon[/name_m]
[name_m]Ferris[/name_m]
[name_m]Nevin[/name_m]
[name_m]Orin[/name_m]
DH doesn’t like nicknames so [name_u]Ari[/name_u] would be his name. Except DH now really doesn’t like it so I guess I just have to learn to love [name_m]Torin[/name_m]. I don’t hate it, but I just don’t love it.
I have a student named [name_m]Torin[/name_m] and he is friendly, hard working, and super sweet, if that helps at all.
