As some people know my boyfriend wants the initials of a baby to be H.B.K (K surname).
I wanted to know what everyone thought of these boys names. I will also be posting a girls version in the girls names section.
First what are your opinions on these combinations.
[name]Huw[/name] ([name]Hugh[/name]) [name]Bradley[/name]/[name]Blaine[/name].
[name]Hector[/name] [name]Bradley[/name]/[name]Blaine[/name].
Hywel ([name]Howell[/name]) [name]Bradley[/name]/[name]Blaine[/name].
[name]Hunter[/name] [name]Bryn[/name]
Heulwyn or Heilwyn (Hail-wen) [name]Bailey[/name]
Hayden Beau/Bradley - Hayden can be added back onto my list after someone I know has decided to go for a more common name.
second what names can you come up with out of these. or your own input. - already considered [name]Harvey/Harvard, Hart/Hartford, Henry[/name], [name]Harry[/name], [name]& Harrison[/name] so there No No’s. - No Common surnames or old names I cant stand them.
The only names I like on your list are [name]Hugh[/name] (spelled that way) and [name]Hector[/name]. What about [name]Hugo[/name], [name]Harold[/name], or [name]Huck[/name]? Of your B names, I think [name]Bailey[/name] and [name]Beau[/name] are best. What about [name]Bay[/name] or [name]Barnaby[/name]?
[name]Hugo[/name] [name]Barnaby[/name]
[name]Hector[/name] [name]Bay[/name]
[name]Hugh[/name] [name]Bailey[/name]
[name]Harold[/name] beau
[name]Huck[/name] [name]Bernard[/name]
Also- please don’t name your child Bane. It’s just not nice.
[b]The only names I like on your list are [name]Hugh[/name] (spelled that way) and [name]Hector[/name]. What about [name]Hugo[/name], [name]Harold[/name], or [name]Huck[/name]? - I am Welsh and [name]Huw[/name] is the Welsh version of [name]Hugh[/name], for some reason I don’t like [name]Hugh[/name]/[name]Hugo[/name] but I like [name]Huw[/name]. [name]Huck[/name] looks Kind of weird. [name]Harold[/name] is too 60’s & 70’s for my liking - I will explain. My Dad was born in the 60’s my boyfriend’s brother was born in the 70’s. My boyfriend was born in the 80’s and Me in the 90’s So I have hear loads of names and I’m kind fussy on names due to this. Of your B names, I think [name]Bailey[/name] and [name]Beau[/name] are best. What about [name]Bay[/name] or [name]Barnaby[/name]? - [name]Barnaby[/name] is too old fashioned for my liking. And where I live is called … [name]Bay[/name] and people might think he’s named after that.
[name]Hugo[/name] [name]Barnaby[/name] - I simply don’t like [name]Hugo[/name] I don’t know why I just don’t like it.
[name]Hector[/name] [name]Bay[/name] - See above for [name]Bay[/name]. - I like [name]Hector[/name] [name]Bailey[/name]/[name]Hector[/name] [name]Beau[/name].
[name]Hugh[/name] [name]Bailey[/name] - See above for [name]Hugh[/name]. I like this one though.
[name]Harold[/name] beau - I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Beau[/name] but I don’t like [name]Harold[/name] again too old for my liking.
[name]Huck[/name] [name]Bernard[/name] - [name]Huck[/name] sounds kinda weird and [name]Bernard[/name] again is too old fashioned for my liking.
Also- please don’t name your child Bane. It’s just not nice. - Thats was supposed to be [name]Blane[/name] I missed the L out, changed it now.
I quite like Hywel ([name]Howell[/name]) is that the Welsh spelling?
Suggestions?:
[name]Havard[/name]
[name]Haldor[/name]
[name]Halvard[/name]
[name]Harvey[/name]
[name]Bjorn[/name]
[name]Bruce[/name]
[name]Bertram[/name]
[name]Bram[/name]
[name]Barnabas[/name] (I love this one).
I think Hywel [name]Barnabas[/name] or Hywel [name]Bertram[/name] are very handsome.
I quite like Hywel ([name]Howell[/name]) is that the Welsh spelling? - Yes Hywel is the welsh spelling but pronounced [name]Howell[/name] - as in the Surname.
[name]Havard[/name] - I like this, but not sure if my boyfriend will.
[name]Haldor[/name] - [name]How[/name] do you say this ?
[name]Halvard[/name] - I’m not sure on this one. [name]How[/name] is it said?
[name]Harvey[/name] - I like this but my boyfriend would go mad. He knows someone with this surname and he hates him.
[name]Bjorn[/name] - I quite like this one :).
[name]Bruce[/name], [name]Bertram[/name], [name]Barnabas[/name] - These are slighly old for my liking. Although I do like Hwyel [name]Barnabas[/name].
[name]Bram[/name] - [name]How[/name] do you say this.
I think Hywel [name]Barnabas[/name] or Hywel [name]Bertram[/name] are very handsome.
[name]Hector[/name] is definitely my favorite of your H names. I also like [name]Hugo[/name], but I’m not the biggest fan of [name]Huw[/name]/[name]Hugh[/name]. My favorite of your B names are [name]Beau[/name] and [name]Byron[/name].
Some other options:
H
[name]Halston[/name]
[name]Hadriel[/name]
[name]Hadrian[/name]
[name]Hershel[/name]
[name]Halston[/name] - I don’t like this one.
[name]Hadriel[/name] - This just looks like [name]Ariel[/name] with a H & a D init.
[name]Hadrian[/name] - This just looks like a H has been put infront of [name]Adrian[/name].
[name]Hershel[/name] - I don’t like this I had a teacher at school with a name similar.
[name]Boman[/name]/[name]Bowen[/name] - I don’t like these.
[name]Bolan[/name] - I have no idea how you would say this either.
Basir - My dad has a friend called [name]Basil[/name] so this is out as it will remind me of him.
[name]Boaz[/name] - I like the look of the name but have no idean how you say it.
[name]Bodhi[/name] - This looks quite weird.
[name]Boden[/name] - I dont like this.
[name]Banan[/name] - I kinda like this.
[name]Brighton[/name] - I don’t like place names as names Not on boys anyway.
[name]Booker[/name] - I like this one.
[name]Brogan[/name] - I like this one also.
[name]Brant[/name] - I don’t like this one either.
[name]Brandt[/name] - I don’t like this one.
[name]Huw[/name] ([name]Hugh[/name]) [name]Bradley[/name] - I like [name]Huw[/name] [name]Bradley[/name] - [name]Huw[/name] [name]Blaine[/name] sounds cut off
[name]Hector[/name] [name]Bradley[/name]/[name]Blaine[/name]. - not sure if I like [name]Hector[/name]
Hywel ([name]Howell[/name]) [name]Bradley[/name]/[name]Blaine[/name]. - I like Hywel but not sure about the middle names
[name]Hunter[/name] [name]Bryn[/name] - I like [name]Hunter[/name], I would like [name]Hunter[/name] [name]Blaine[/name]!
Heulyn or Heilyn (Hail-wen) [name]Bailey[/name] - Wouldn’t that be Heulwyn? The “hail” part throws me off.
[name]Howell[/name] [name]Bruce[/name] (or in your case Hywel [name]Bruce[/name]) is swoon-worthy. I know you said you don’t like [name]Bruce[/name] but that combo might have to go on my list. I’ve loved [name]Howell[/name] for ages, happy to “meet” someone else who appreciates the name!
I think a lot of Berries are American/European so [name]Huw[/name] looks weird to them, but if this spelling is traditional in your area I think it’s fine. And you seem to like that one a lot. [name]Huw[/name] [name]Bradley[/name] is nice. [name]Huw[/name] [name]Byron[/name] and [name]Hector[/name] [name]Byron[/name] are also great.
[name]Huw[/name] ([name]Hugh[/name]) [name]Bradley[/name] - I like [name]Huw[/name] [name]Bradley[/name] - [name]Huw[/name] [name]Blaine[/name] sounds cut off. - I’m trying to kinda mix Irish and Welsh together with english/family names.
[name]Hunter[/name] [name]Bryn[/name] - I like [name]Hunter[/name], I would like [name]Hunter[/name] [name]Blaine[/name]! - [name]Bryn[/name] is also welsh was is pronounced Brr-in. it means [name]Hill[/name].
Heulwyn or Heilwyn (Hail-wen) [name]Bailey[/name] - Wouldn’t that be Heulwyn? The “hail” part throws me off. - No. Heulwen is the more common name. - Heulwyn & Heilwyn are the variation names. Sorry I missed the W out writing it quickly. It’s welsh and in welsh said different to what it actually says, Heu in welsh means Hay.
I also like:
[name]Huw[/name] [name]Byron[/name]/Hywel [name]Byron[/name] - I like [name]Huw[/name] but I prefer Hywel with this name.
Hywel [name]Brent[/name] - I’m not sure if I like [name]Brent[/name]. I like [name]Brett[/name] though.
[name]Hunter[/name] [name]Blaine[/name]/[name]Hunter[/name] [name]Bailey[/name] - I think I prefer [name]Huntington[/name] [name]Blaine[/name] or [name]Huntington[/name] [name]Bailey[/name]. and have [name]Hunter[/name] as a Nickname.
[name]Howell[/name] [name]Bruce[/name] (or in your case Hywel [name]Bruce[/name]) is swoon-worthy. I know you said you don’t like [name]Bruce[/name] but that combo might have to go on my list. I’ve loved [name]Howell[/name] for ages, happy to “meet” someone else who appreciates the name! - I don’t not like [name]Bruce[/name]. I’m not really a fan of 50’s -60’s names as it’s my mum and dads era it kinda feels old if you understand what I mean. I do kinda like Hywel [name]Bruce[/name]. I kinda like Hywel [name]Barrie[/name]/[name]Barry[/name].
I think a lot of Berries are American/European so [name]Huw[/name] looks weird to them, but if this spelling is traditional in your area I think it’s fine. And you seem to like that one a lot. [name]Huw[/name] [name]Bradley[/name] is nice. [name]Huw[/name] [name]Byron[/name] and [name]Hector[/name] [name]Byron[/name] are also great. - It’s just basically the same as [name]Hugh[/name] but spelt with a W instead of GH. I don’t actually live in [name]Wales[/name] but I don’t live far from it. - I like [name]Huw[/name] [name]Byron[/name] and [name]Hector[/name] [name]Byron[/name] also.
Any particular meaning behind the initials H.B.? - the initals would be H.B.K - My boyfriend has a fave wrestler [name]Shawn[/name] Michaels who’s ring name was Heart-Break Kid [name]Shawn[/name] Michaels. And my boyfriend has always wanted a boy or a girl with the initals H.B.K (K being my boyfriends surname which is lucky).
I like [name]Hunter[/name] and [name]Holden[/name] the best of your names. I think mn [name]Blaine[/name] goes best with both. I feel like [name]Huw[/name] is way too difficult for people to pronounce. People will try and say it like “how” because it is a similar looking word that they know and can attach their brain to.
some other H names to consider:
[name]Harley[/name]
[name]Hugo[/name]
[name]Hudson[/name]
[name]Hermes[/name]
[name]Harvey[/name]
Some other B names to consider:
[name]Baxter[/name]
[name]Bennett[/name]
[name]Blaise[/name]
[name]Booker[/name]
Thank you. [name]Huw[/name] is Welsh and I come from [name]Wales[/name] and I am moving back there so that wont be a problem in people saying it. and with other family members they will soon get the hang of it as they are Irish and are used to names that are a bit different.
[name]Harley[/name] - I like this but Unisex names are not for me.
[name]Hugo[/name] - This is on my list.
[name]Hudson[/name] - I like this but a teacher at my old school had this surname.
[name]Hermes[/name] - [name]Kinda[/name] sounds like a disease.
[name]Harvey[/name] - I like this but as I said in one of my previous posts - for personal reasons my boyfriend don’t like this name.
[name]Baxter[/name] - I don’t like this name. It’s a common surname as I said above i’m not a fan of common surnames as names.
[name]Bennett[/name] - See Above.
[name]Blaise[/name] - This is my cat’s name.
[name]Booker[/name] - I do [name]Love[/name] this one.
thanks for your reply. I’m not sure on [name]Hyrum[/name] as I don’t like drinks being in names ‘Rum - Drink’. I love [name]Booker[/name] as a name. I don’t like [name]Burke[/name] or [name]Bradford[/name] there surnames I know people who have them.
I love [name]Hugh[/name] but I would spell [name]Huw[/name] due to me being Welsh.
Of your first set, [name]Hunter[/name] is the only that I really like, but I like it better with [name]Bradley[/name] or [name]Blaine[/name]. Or maybe [name]Hunter[/name] [name]Barton[/name] or [name]Hunter[/name] [name]Barrett[/name]?? However, on your “H” name list I absolutely L-O-V-E [name]Houston[/name]! If I ever have a son, that’s my first choice!!!
[name]Houston[/name] [name]Barton[/name] or [name]Houston[/name] [name]Barrett[/name] - [name]Houston[/name], [name]Barton[/name] & [name]Barrett[/name] are common surnames and I [name]DON[/name]'T LIKE common surnames as names I’v said this before.
Huwston [name]Bradley[/name] I like but not the [name]Houston[/name] spelling. - still the same name but said [name]Hugh[/name]-ston as [name]Huw[/name] is Welsh for [name]Hugh[/name].
I like [name]Huw[/name] [name]Bradley[/name], [name]Hunter[/name] [name]Bradley[/name] ([name]Bryn[/name] is a girls name to me though I would like [name]Hunter[/name] [name]Bryan[/name]), and [name]Hayden[/name] [name]Bradley[/name].
However, [name]Hunter[/name] is a reasonably common name so I’m not sure why it is on your list. In my mind the same goes for [name]Hanson[/name] (the [name]Hanson[/name] brothers), [name]Hyatt[/name] (hotels named after family who,started them), [name]Huntington[/name] (disease named for guy who discovered it), and [name]Hamilton[/name] ([name]Alexander[/name] [name]Hamilton[/name]), [name]Huntley[/name] ([name]Chet[/name] [name]Huntley[/name] was a famous newscaster). Also [name]Hyram[/name] is an old name like [name]Harvey[/name], [name]Harry[/name], and [name]Henry[/name].
- [name]Hayden[/name] can be added back onto my list after someone I know has decided to go for a more common name.
