Difficult boy name quest - Need help :-)

Boy Names
1

Dear all,

We need your help. My husband and I can’t find our boy name. We have amazing girl names ([name_f]Ferelith[/name_f] and [name_f]Elowen[/name_f], can’t decided between both yet) but we can’t find any boy names that match up with all our criteria:

  • A bit unique name

  • NOT starting or ending with a K sound (due to our last name)

  • NOT ending with -en, and maybe even not -on or -an (also due to our last name since it will give a rhyme)

  • not a hard criteria, but we would prefer a non-biblical name.

Names that are on our radar but can’t make it to the final list: [name_m]Merrick[/name_m] (to close to a relative name - and the k ending), [name_m]Thorin[/name_m] (to much Tolkien), [name_u]Dylan[/name_u] (to popular). And I really like [name_m]Archibald[/name_m] my husband gave it a veto (I can see why :p)

Really appreciate your help!!! We usually like names with a bit outdoors feeling.
