So we have a boy’s name picked for our firstborn (expected by [name_f]September[/name_f]! But we’re team green). But I still would like to have some fun with my longterm boy’s list and think about a second boy if that should ever happen (we plan to have 3 kids total).
Here are the names on our list of ones we would love to use. I’ve divided them into family honor names and other names we love because it’s important to me that the names we choose have a familial origin.
[name_m]Feel[/name_m] free to mix and match using family names and otherwise, but a pick that’s two non-family names, however gorgeous a combination, probably won’t be a contender, unfortunately. And you can feel free to choose other names you feel would flow perfectly in combination with a family name as well.
Names we love just because:
[name_m]Ulysses[/name_m]
[name_m]Ignatius[/name_m]
[name_m]Linus[/name_m]
[name_m]Ferdinand[/name_m]
[name_u]Oberon[/name_u]
[name_m]Wilbur[/name_m]
[name_m]Errol[/name_m]
[name_m]Lyall[/name_m] / [name_u]Lyle[/name_u]
[name_m]Algernon[/name_m]
[name_m]Idris[/name_m]
Our last name is one syllable, so long names tend to flow pretty well. We do have the sometimes problematic initial of K, however, so watch the SUK, FUK, SAK… basically vowels in the middle tend to get funky, except sweet ones like [name_m]LUK[/name_m].
[name_u]Lyle[/name_u] [name_m]Seamus[/name_m] / [name_m]Lyall[/name_m] [name_m]Seamus[/name_m]
[name_m]Julian[/name_m] [name_m]Idris[/name_m] (I’m currently loving the name [name_m]Julian[/name_m] with a D middle name so I can use the nn [name_u]Jude[/name_u])
[name_m]Linus[/name_m] [name_m]Hamilton[/name_m]
I particularly like [name_m]Linus[/name_m] [name_m]Hamilton[/name_m], [name_m]Algernon[/name_m] [name_m]Seamus[/name_m], and [name_m]Idris[/name_m] [name_m]Julian[/name_m].
So many great options!
