Drawing a blank on our baby boy's name

[name_f]My[/name_f] partner and I confidently named our three children from short and sweet lists. They were [name_m]Jude[/name_m], [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] and [name_f]Vivian[/name_f] very early on, there was little debate, no doubts and just “aha! this is his/her name”. That confidence is gone and we have no real options to even start discussing a name for him.

His dad vaguely likes [name_m]Sawyer[/name_m], which is nice enough but I am not a fan of surname-names and hope that I can either learn to love it or come across something better.

Any and every suggestion is welcome. Throw any good name our way, something might stick.

I noticed that your kids follow a 1-2-3 syllable pattern. You could go for a 4-syllable name for #4 to continue that theme: [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] or [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] come to mind.

Otherwise, here’s some ideas of names that share sounds or style with [name_m]Sawyer[/name_m], but are less surnamey:

[name_m]Andrew[/name_m]
[name_m]Dexter[/name_m]
[name_m]Quentin[/name_m]
[name_m]Lewis[/name_m]
[name_m]Grant[/name_m]
[name_m]Casper[/name_m]
[name_m]Shawn[/name_m]
[name_m]Preston[/name_m]
[name_m]Graham[/name_m]
[name_m]Asher[/name_m]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m]
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m]
[name_m]Xavier[/name_m]
[name_m]Neil[/name_m]
[name_m]Byron[/name_m]
[name_m]Chester[/name_m]
[name_m]Rowan[/name_m]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Harvey[/name_m]
[name_m]Malcolm[/name_m]
[name_f]Shea[/name_f]

That’s such a fun observation but unfortunately, I scrambled our children’s birth order :blush: the pattern is more 1, 3, 2, and maybe four syllables is too bold for our last name to handle.

I do like [name_m]Lewis[/name_m] [name_m]Asher[/name_m] and [name_m]Wesley[/name_m]. I’ll write them down and let the overthinking begin. Thank you for your help.

[name_m]Thayer[/name_m] came to mind. Sounds similar to [name_m]Sawyer[/name_m] but seems to fit the vibe of your other kids names better.

I love surnames and like [name_m]Sawyer[/name_m] well enough yet can see your sticking point. It’s not exactly in the vein of your other three kids, other than all four names have seen steady usage recently.

With [name_m]Jude[/name_m], [name_f]Audrey[/name_f], and [name_f]Vivian[/name_f], I see

[name_m]Reid[/name_m]
[name_m]Preston[/name_m]
[name_m]Trevor[/name_m]
