Boy Names

Hello nameberries!

I am due nxt week- i have a list of boy names but i dont feel 100% sold on them- any ideas or different suggestions based on what i have:

Simple short names are appealing to me
Slightly bothered by same ol’ names some of which ive listed below-

Am i overthinking this? Any thoughts would be much appreciated

Ezra
[name_m]Caleb[/name_m]
[name_m]Ian[/name_m]
[name_m]Bernard[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u]
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_u]Winslow[/name_u]
[name_u]Wyn[/name_u]

I think there are some lovely names on your list! I especially love [name_u]Ezra[/name_u], [name_m]Ian[/name_m], [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] and [name_u]Wyn[/name_u].

I have listed some suggestions below, but try not to stress out too much about your son’s name. A name you thought of as a bit boring might be just right for your son once you meet him.

My suggestions for you:

Ace
[name_m]Amias[/name_m]
[name_u]Amos[/name_u]
[name_u]Arlo[/name_u]
[name_m]Benedict[/name_m]
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]
[name_u]Eli[/name_u]
[name_u]Finn[/name_u]
[name_m]Hugh[/name_m]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m]
[name_u]Ira[/name_u]
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_u]Jude[/name_u]
[name_u]Levi[/name_u]
[name_u]Luca[/name_u]
[name_u]Thaddeus[/name_u]
[name_u]Wyatt[/name_u]

But I also like from your list [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m], [name_m]Caleb[/name_m], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] & [name_u]Winslow[/name_u]. I’m a massive fan of biblical names.

Hi there.

Here are my thoughts on your list-

Ezra-This is a really nice name. It’s kind of artsy & outdoorsy. It’s simple, but maybe a little bit popular.

Caleb-This doesn’t do much for me. It’s totally fine, just not that special sounding. Fairly over done.

Ian-Again, it’s fine. But it doesn’t have a wow factor.

Bernard-Yes, I like this! It’s charming, vintage, strong & unexpected. Plus, the nn [name_u]Bernie[/name_u] is adroable.

Noah-Great strong classic, but sooo popular.

Nathaniel-Also pretty over done, but a lovely name. I really like the witty sporty [name_m]Nate[/name_m].

Samuel-This is one of my favorites of the same ol’ kind of names. A bit over done, but just so sweet & handsome.

Winslow-Well, that’s different. I don’t know if I love it, but it’s interesting.

Wyn-I kind of really like [name_u]Win[/name_u] as a nn for [name_m]Winston[/name_m]. But also [name_m]Ewan[/name_m] (love [name_m]Ewan[/name_m]!), [name_m]Edwin[/name_m], [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] or [name_u]Owen[/name_u]?

Wim-That’s different. Kind of cute. [name_m]Way[/name_m] nick-namey though. Maybe [name_m]William[/name_m] or [name_m]Gwilym[/name_m] nn [name_m]Wim[/name_m]?

Sorry for any repeats, but maybe you’ll like…
