Between [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] and [name_m]Weston[/name_m], which do you like better for a boy?
Last name is [name_m]Powers[/name_m].
I like both, but I think I prefer [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] a little bit! Not sure if [name_u]Beck[/name_u] or [name_m]Wes[/name_m] are up for nicknames but I really like both of those too.
[name_m]Beckett[/name_m]! It’s a great name, and I like how strong and distinctive it sounds with your last name.
[name_m]Weston[/name_m] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] sounds a little bit like “Western powers” to me, although that’s probably just my (British) accent.
[name_m]Beckett[/name_m] all the way! Such a strong and handsome name. [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] sounds like a movie character, so cool!
I really love [name_m]Weston[/name_m]! I think it works better with your surname as well! [name_m]Weston[/name_m] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] sounds awesome!
I would choose [name_m]Beckett[/name_m]
I prefer [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] with your surname. [name_m]Weston[/name_m] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] just sounds a little too similar to both [name_u]Austin[/name_u] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] and western powers for me.
I’ve been waiting for the [name_u]Austin[/name_u] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] comment but truly, I appreciate it. That’s my one and only concern with using [name_m]Weston[/name_m] even though my husband prefers it (and I do love it too).
[name_m]Weston[/name_m] is my husbands vote! I do love both but fear [name_m]Weston[/name_m] may be like [name_u]Austin[/name_u] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] or may become popular. I’m a teacher so I would hate for my kid to have a common name. Thank you for your feedback though!!
Yes we are probably going to use those as nicknames just out of pure simplicity at times-I do like both also. Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you! That is something I wouldn’t have thought of with a British accent. We are from the [name_u]South[/name_u] so it would probably come out more like “Wayestin”
In hindsight, it does feel too close to [name_u]Austin[/name_u] [name_m]Powers[/name_m]. I think I just prefer the name [name_m]Weston[/name_m]!
Both names are great ! If I had to chose between the two I would pick [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] [name_u]Power[/name_u]. I think it sounds very masculine and distinctive. Generally I love [name_m]Weston[/name_m] but I think with your surname and my accent it sounds like The “[name_u]West[/name_u] in [name_u]Power[/name_u]”. I don’t mind [name_m]Wesley[/name_m] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] though !
Which ever you pick will be lovely!! And congratulations on narrowing down to two!!
Oh, I love [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] - so handsome.
Unfortunately, I have to agree that [name_m]Weston[/name_m] doesn’t go with your surname. It gives me a bit of a giggle to be honest.
Thanks for all the feedback so far. The vast majority of our family that we’ve talked to prefers [name_m]Weston[/name_m]. I feel like I’m the only one who likes [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] enough to truly use it. They all say it sounds like [name_f]Becky[/name_f] I know ultimately it’s our choice but even my husband is siding with [name_m]Weston[/name_m], which I do love also, but clearly there’s a common theme with some people thinking it sounds odd with our last name which is valid. I’m stuck!
I like both, but prefer [name_m]Beckett[/name_m]. I love the nickname [name_u]Beck[/name_u]!
I’m loving the sound of [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] [name_m]Powers[/name_m]! I’ve never been big on [name_m]Weston[/name_m] though; I much prefer [name_m]Wesley[/name_m]. [name_m]Wesley[/name_m] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] or even [name_m]Westley[/name_m] [name_m]Powers[/name_m] would be super cute and would definitely win my vote! What do you and your family think of [name_m]Wesley[/name_m]/[name_m]Westley[/name_m]?
[name_m]Beckett[/name_m]!!
I like [name_m]Weston[/name_m] best. To me it’s a stronger name. Why is it odd with the last name? Because it sounds like Western powers? I didn’t think it sounded like anything
