Got 3 boys...and oops here comes another. Help?

General Name Discussion

[name]Hi[/name] there,
I am a bit embarrassed to post on here and say this. I am a very proud mother of 3 boys! I love them dearly but my husband and I were definitely set on having 3 and that was it. At least that was our plan, until I found out I was pregnant. I don’t like to use the word accident because I think every child is a blessing including this one. So although a bit unprepared, we are going to open our hearts to another little one and we need a name! I just found out at my last appointment that we are expecting a boy. Since the name train stopped flowing a while back, I need some new, fresh ideas. If you can tell from my sons’ names, we tend to like classic, charming, offbeat yet not too odd of names. If you can pinpoint our taste and lend us a helping hand for [name]Prince[/name] Charming #4 as he is called now, my husband and I would be so grateful! Thanks!

My sons’ names:
[name]Eldridge[/name] [name]Hayes[/name] (12)
[name]Arthur[/name] [name]Linus[/name] (10)
[name]Willis[/name] [name]Baxter[/name] (6)

Known as [name]Ellie[/name], [name]Artie[/name], & [name]Willie[/name].

Great list! Definitely up my alley.
I really like [name]Winfield[/name], [name]Calloway[/name], [name]Prescott[/name], [name]Langston[/name]
For middle names, I like [name]Vaughn[/name] & [name]Lloyd[/name].

More ideas are welcomed!

Congrats on your unexpected blessing! :slight_smile: Are you by any chance in the UK? Your sons’ names have a very British, gentlemanly feel to them. Your style seems in tune with this list from a British name blogger: British Baby Names

[name]Hope[/name] something catches your eye!

ETA: Check out this list too. Victorian Darlings - British Baby Names

[name]Calloway[/name] [name]Vaughn[/name] is quite dashing and can have the nickname [name]Callie[/name] to follow your nn trend in the sibset.

6

I definitely would love to keep that trend if possible. I know it’s hard and not realistic but I like that they have nice nicknames. I also like how I can call my boys [name]El[/name], [name]Art[/name], & [name]Will[/name] or [name]Ellie[/name], [name]Artie[/name] & [name]Willie[/name]. [name]Calloway[/name] would most definitely fit right in. I think [name]Cal[/name]/[name]Callie[/name] is a nice nickname. [name]Calloway[/name] [name]Vaughn[/name] is quite dashing! You are right! I will add this to my non-existent list! haha, thank you for suggesting it!

@Southern.[name]Maple[/name] those lists fit in with my style for sure! I am actually not from the U.K. but I like to think of my boys as gentlemen :slight_smile:

From those lists, I like [name]Archibald[/name] & [name]Cornelius[/name].

Thank you @[name]Blade[/name]! This is a great list! I like a lot of these:
I still think I like [name]Calloway[/name] slightly better than [name]Callahan[/name].
I especially [name]Kendrick[/name]!

I’m glad you like [name]Kendrick[/name]-- that was my favorite, too! It seemed to fit so well with your other sons’ names. Plus you get fun nicknames, like [name]Ken[/name] or [name]Rick[/name].
