Iâve always had a hard time finding boys names that I love. With girls, I could go on forever, but boys are harder. That being said, some names that make my heart sing are:
Bellamy - Iâve loved this one for a looong time and Iâm not even sure why! It just sounds so gentle and sweet and I always smile when I say it.
Clark - this one brings superheroes (Superman) and Old Hollywood ([name_m]Clark[/name_m] [name_m]Gable[/name_m]) together. It doesnât get much cooler than that.
Rafferty - this one is a new discovery for me and I love it! Itâs preppy and mischievious at the same time and [name_m]Raff[/name_m] and [name_u]Rafe[/name_u] make for such cool nicknames.
Malachi - another new discovery! Itâs dynamic, cool, sounds like a name out of a fantasy novel, and [name_u]Kai[/name_u] is a great nickname.
Adler - this one means âeagleâ, which is already cool, but then itâs also the last name of [name_f]Irene[/name_f] [name_m]Adler[/name_m], one of the very few characters who ever managed to outsmart [name_m]Sherlock[/name_m] [name_m]Holmes[/name_m]. A badass meaning AND a feminist icon reference? Sign me up!
Otis - this one is quirky and charming, with a pleasant old fashioned-yet-modern quality that I really like.
Deacon - uncommon occupational names are my jam! [name_m]Deacon[/name_m] is stately yet accessible and itâs got an air of sophistication without being pompous.
Abbott - just like [name_m]Deacon[/name_m], a fresh occupational name that needs more love.
Asa - by far my favorite -a ending boys name. Itâs so short yet so full of personality!
Lyle - I first heard [name_u]Lyle[/name_u] on MTVâs 16&Pregnant of all places and have been obsessed ever since. [name_u]Lyle[/name_u] is soft and melodic, sunny and light and just so pleasant? It makes me think happy thoughts whenever I hear it.

David. I know itâs simple and everyone probably knows a thousand Davids but it just is a really nostalgic and dependable name that I love to hear.
