What are your favorite boy names and why?
I really want to make a long list of names.
(like the girls’ names) I love my favorites because they are meaningful to me, they honor family and/or have special meaning, they speak to me in some way.
(this is not a full list of every name I love)

I have tons more but I’ll stop there!
The name, and of course my favorite, that we want to name our first boy is [name_m]Scott[/name_m] [name_m]Allen[/name_m]. For family reasons, and [name_m]Scott[/name_m] is just a boy name I have always liked.
Here are rather two runner ups:
[name_u]Seth[/name_u] [name_m]Anthony[/name_m]- my hubs initials are SAB, so [name_m]Scott[/name_m] [name_m]Allen[/name_m] would be SAB, same as [name_u]Seth[/name_u] [name_m]Anthony[/name_m]. I also have always loved [name_u]Seth[/name_u].
[name_u]Kieran[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m]- [name_u]Kieran[/name_u] keeps with the Irish heritage that mine and my husbands name have, and [name_m]William[/name_m] is a family name.
Here are other favorites that sadly won’t be used:
[name_u]Micah[/name_u]
[name_m]Mordechai[/name_m]
[name_u]Owen[/name_u]
[name_m]Mathias[/name_m]
[name_m]Ian[/name_m]
[name_m]Finnegan[/name_m] nn [name_u]Finn[/name_u]
[name_u]Sawyer[/name_u]
[name_m]Tucker[/name_m]- I liked the surname as a first name
[name_m]Turner[/name_m]- I liked the surname as a first name
[name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m] nn [name_m]Thadd[/name_m]- fell in love recently
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_m]Maxwell[/name_m]-loved it as a kid
[name_m]Marco[/name_m]- my ex and I picked this name out to go with his very Italian last name.
[name_f]My[/name_f] top 10 (plus middles, so 20 in all) are in my sig.
Most of them have great associations for me, a person or a character I have loved. Some of them I just like the way they sound. For me it’s all about saying it out loud, if I don’t get a ‘buzz’ out of saying it, it’s off the list!
[name_f]My[/name_f] absolute favourites (combos in signature):
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m]
[name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]
[name_m]Ptolemy[/name_m]
[name_m]Lorenzo[/name_m]
[name_m]Nikolai[/name_m]
[name_m]Evander[/name_m]
