I have my girl name locked down but DH and I just cant see eye to eye on boys names. So far, my list includes names that I probably would never actually choose but its fun to throw them around.
Which ones stay and which ones go. And please, give me some good ones - make me love them!
Go:
[name]Talon[/name]
[name]Saul[/name]

[name]Rider[/name]
[name]Balthazar[/name] (not sure how he could pull it off!)
[name]Easton[/name]
[name]Ever[/name]
[name]Orion[/name]
[name]Axel[/name] - I’ve known several dogs named this, so thats all I can see this name as. Sorry.
[name]Beau[/name] - As a middle name, maybe.

[name]Bowie[/name] - Same with [name]Axel[/name].

[name]James[/name] - Blah. Its so boring.
[name]Nathaniel[/name] - I kinda like this.

[name]Beau[/name]
[name]Easton[/name]
[name]Jethro[/name]
[name]James[/name]
[name]Nathaniel[/name]
[name]Rider[/name]
[name]Silas[/name]
[name]Stone[/name] - I love this name but it gets REALLY BAD reviews on here
[name]Axel[/name] - Seems like a dog’s name or… I dunno. I’m not sure I like it.
[name]Beau[/name] - Blech. Something about this name I just can’t stand, sorry.
[name]Balthazar[/name] - This always reminds me of the character on Charmed… not really a good connection [name]IMO[/name].
[name]Bowie[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like it.
[name]Easton[/name] - It’s ok. Prefer [name]Weston[/name] though.
[name]Ever[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like.
[name]Jasper[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like.
[name]Jethro[/name] - Nope.
[name]James[/name] - Good strong name but a little boring.
[name]Nathaniel[/name] - [name]Love[/name] it! Lots of nn options too.
[name]Orion[/name] - I kinda like it. I probably wouldn’t personally use it but I like it on other people.
[name]Rider[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like.
[name]Silas[/name] - [name]Love[/name] it!
[name]Stone[/name] - Meh. [name]Don[/name]'t like it.
[name]Saul[/name] - It’s ok.
[name]Talon[/name] - Reminds me of [name]Laguna[/name] [name]Beach[/name]. I liked the name back then but now not so much.
[name]Axel[/name] - think it’s a nice strong name, a little different but workable
[name]Beau[/name] - [name]Beau[/name] to me suggests ‘beautiful/handsome’ .I always wonder about names that ‘describe’
people. Like calling a kid ‘tiny’ and they end up fat which just encourages teasing )does that make sense)
[name]Balthazar[/name] - agree with other poster don’t think anyone could pull this off
[name]Bowie[/name] - after David? I would assume you’re a big fan
[name]Easton[/name] - never heard it before, not a fan
[name]Ever[/name] - as in after/ more/ ready/ green - think kids could use it to make up nicknames
[name]Jasper[/name] - like it
[name]Jethro[/name] - a bit too ‘rough and ready’ for my liking
[name]James[/name] - lovely classic name, suits any era
[name]Nathaniel[/name] - like it
[name]Orion[/name] - a bit too much for me
[name]Rider[/name] - not a fan
[name]Silas[/name] - ok
[name]Stone[/name] - not sure I could see myself calling ‘Stone’ in the playground
[name]Saul[/name] - ok
[name]Talon[/name] - made my pull a face (sorry) - as in bird’s claws?
