Help With Baby Boy Name!

[name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I are expecting our third child, a boy, in [name_f]September[/name_f]. We’re having a hard time coming up with a name we like that fits with our other two children [name_m]Ben[/name_m] ([name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] [name_u]Michael[/name_u]) and [name_f]Kate[/name_f] ([name_f]Katharine[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f]). Potential middle name is [name_m]Andrew[/name_m]. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Any other criteria or personal preferences?

I don’t have many classic names on my own list, though I do love many of them – including both [name_m]Ben[/name_m] and [name_f]Kate[/name_f]. A few that I do have that might work…

[name_m]Ben[/name_m], [name_f]Kate[/name_f], and…
[name_m]Charles[/name_m] “[name_u]Charlie[/name_u]”
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] “[name_m]Ned[/name_m]”
[name_m]Nolan[/name_m]
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m]
[name_m]Josiah[/name_m] "[name_m]Joe[/name_m]’
[name_m]Ruben[/name_m]
[name_m]Jeremiah[/name_m]
[name_m]Simon[/name_m]

I think a shorter name would be best though. I also like…
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_m]Eli[/name_m]
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m] “[name_u]Sam[/name_u]”
[name_m]Maxwell[/name_m]/[name_m]Maxfield[/name_m] “[name_u]Max[/name_u]”
[name_m]Adam[/name_m]
[name_m]Daniel[/name_m] “[name_u]Dane[/name_u]”

I know you said [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] as a mn, but [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] “[name_u]Drew[/name_u]” would make a good fn!

[name_m]Charles[/name_m] would be great! Also, [name_m]David[/name_m], [name_m]Daniel[/name_m], [name_m]William[/name_m], [name_m]Louis[/name_m], [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]George[/name_m], or [name_m]Henry[/name_m].

I’m not sure how well these fit, but my suggestion of names
[name_u]Ryan[/name_u], Rejil, [name_u]Roy[/name_u], [name_u]Denny[/name_u]… :slight_smile:

[name_m]Marcus[/name_m] or [name_m]Mark[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m]?

[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m], [name_f]Katharine[/name_f] and…
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u]
[name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m]
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]
[name_m]Miles[/name_m]
[name_m]Julian[/name_m]
[name_u]Owen[/name_u]
[name_m]Anthony[/name_m]
[name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_m]Simon[/name_m]
[name_m]Joseph[/name_m]
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m]
[name_m]Matthew[/name_m]
[name_m]John[/name_m]
[name_m]Nathan[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_m]Liam[/name_m]
[name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m]
[name_m]David[/name_m]
[name_m]Daniel[/name_m]
[name_m]Jacob[/name_m]
[name_m]Frederick[/name_m]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_u]Ryan[/name_u]
[name_m]Charles[/name_m]
[name_m]Levi[/name_m]

[name_m]Reuben[/name_m]
[name_m]Peter[/name_m]
[name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_m]Saul[/name_m]

[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] ([name_m]Ben[/name_m]), [name_f]Katharine[/name_f] ([name_f]Kate[/name_f]) + [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] ([name_m]Tom[/name_m])
[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] ([name_m]Ben[/name_m]), [name_f]Katharine[/name_f] ([name_f]Kate[/name_f]) + [name_m]Nicholas[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] ([name_u]Nick[/name_u])
[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] ([name_m]Ben[/name_m]), [name_f]Katharine[/name_f] ([name_f]Kate[/name_f]) + [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Andrew[/name_m] ([name_m]Will[/name_m])
Benjamin (Ben), Katharine (Kate) + Samuel Andrew (Sam)

I like the one-syllable nickname best to go with your other kids.

I am on baby #3 and my two kids names are [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] and [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] and we are having another boy and naming him [name_u]Max[/name_u]:slight_smile: so if you are having trouble coming up with boy names [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] and [name_u]Max[/name_u] are great names [name_m]Ben[/name_m] is a great name that was on our list too:)
