Feeling a bit defeated- Opinions welcome!

Boy Names

I am due any day with our third son. We have a [name_u]Francis[/name_u] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]. The only name both my husband and I can agree on is [name_m]George[/name_m]. While we like the name, it causes zero excitement. I am a bit sad about it, as I would love to find a name that I am genuinely happy about! I feel like we just have to settle on it because there is nothing else out there.

Anyway, if there is any suggestion that you have when you think of [name_u]Francis[/name_u] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], it would be so appreciated if you took the time to reply with it. Thank you so much for the help!

[name_u]Francis[/name_u], [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] and [name_u]Owen[/name_u]

The first names that came to mind were [name_m]Julian[/name_m] and [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] as I think they are nice alongside [name_u]Francis[/name_u] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]. All the best!

What names have you vetoed? Which ones are on your list, which on your husband’s list? That would help me get a feeling for your different tastes in names and where (besides [name_m]George[/name_m]) the overlap may be.

[name_u]Francis[/name_u], [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], and…

[name_m]Atticus[/name_m]
[name_m]Amos[/name_m]
[name_m]Bernard[/name_m]
[name_m]Otis[/name_m]
[name_m]Otto[/name_m]
[name_m]Orson[/name_m]
