Help with my top 10 name choices

[name_m]Hi[/name_m], I’ve been looking around in the forums for a while now but now that it’s getting close to my baby boy’s due date, I thought I’d get some help with my top 10. A lot of the names on my list are names I’ve seen on this forum since this is where I’ve been looking for names. Any suggestions, opinions, or advice I could get on my list would be appreciated. Thanks!

These aren’t in any particular order, just names I’m thinking of.

[name_m]Mateo[/name_m]- I’ve liked [name_m]Matthew[/name_m] for a while but I’ve liked this variation more since I heard of it.
[name_m]Nolan[/name_m]- It seems very friendly, I love the meaning (champion)
[name_u]Percy[/name_u]- Loved this for a while, but it seems like most people associate it with [name_u]Percy[/name_u] [name_m]Jackson[/name_m] now. I don’t think that’s a bad association though…
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]- Seen it a lot on the forums. I love the sound and it’s a name that will age well.
[name_m]Johannes[/name_m]- Saw this one on the forum. It’s unique but it’s cute and has nickname potential.
Knowlton- [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t remember where I saw this one but I love the look and sound of it.
[name_u]Rex[/name_u]- It’s nice, modern but works for a little boy and an adult.
[name_u]Parker[/name_u]- Saw this one on the forum and just fell in love with it.
[name_m]George[/name_m]- Classic, known, but not too overused (at least where we live it isn’t, not sure about other places)
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]- Simple and classic

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

Here are my thoughts on your list:

[name_m]Mateo[/name_m]-I think that this is really nice. I kind of think that it may work better w/some sort of Italian heritage, but probably not a deal breaker. It’s charming, masculine but not too rugged sounding.

[name_m]Nolan[/name_m]- I love it! It’s on the top of my boy list too. It is very friendly & sporty.

[name_u]Percy[/name_u]- I think that this is cute, but it’s a little too cute. I prefer it as a nn for [name_m]Percival[/name_m], but I’m not sure that that really holds up on a grown man super well either. I’m not sure that [name_u]Percy[/name_u] [name_m]Jackson[/name_m] is all that popular that it’s influencing the popularity of this name that much.

[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]- I like this one a lot. It’s masculine & classic, but kind of quirky. I don’t care for the nns really.

[name_m]Johannes[/name_m]- It’s not a name that I really ever think about, but it’s kind of cool. It is unique yet fairly recognizable.

Knowlton- It’s different. It kind of reminds me of [name_u]Nick[/name_u] Noltie for some reason…Maybe better as a mn.

[name_u]Rex[/name_u]- This is cool. I agree that it’s cute for a spunky little guy, but handsome on a grown man.

[name_u]Parker[/name_u]- I don’t personally love it or hate it. It just doesn’t do much for me, but it’s not offensive.

[name_m]George[/name_m]- It’s nice. Sort of popular in my area (midwest U.S.), but not bad. It is a classic.

[name_m]Jack[/name_m]- This is also common, but I love it. It’s very dashing & boysih

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps. :slight_smile:

[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] seems like a great choice for you! It’s classic, cute and friendly, but not overly popular (depending on where you live).

I like your whole list, except for Knowlton. [name_m]Nolan[/name_m] is much cuter and more familiar.

My faves ranked:
[name_u]Rex[/name_u]
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]
[name_u]Percy[/name_u]
[name_m]George[/name_m]
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Nolan[/name_m]
[name_m]Mateo[/name_m]
[name_u]Parker[/name_u]
[name_m]Johannes[/name_m]

[name_m]Nolan[/name_m] actually makes a great middle name for most of these.

I’m curious how you would rank them yourself! From how you describe them, you seem to love [name_u]Percy[/name_u] and [name_u]Parker[/name_u] best.

[name_m]Mateo[/name_m] is cool and it has a nice, cheery vibe

[name_m]Nolan[/name_m] -nice sounds, sturdy but fresh

[name_u]Percy[/name_u] -one of my absolute faves! [name_m]Light[/name_m], literary and sweet

[name_m]Oscar[/name_m]-cute, versatile though fairly popular if that bothers you

[name_m]Johannes[/name_m] - nms but it’s strong and intersting

Knowlton -looks and feels slightly awkward, sorry. [name_u]Paxton[/name_u], [name_m]Colton[/name_m], [name_u]Noel[/name_u], [name_m]Lawson[/name_m] and [name_m]Knox[/name_m] as alternatives?

[name_u]Rex[/name_u] - I like it Lively and fun

[name_m]George[/name_m] -love it! Warm and cosy

[name_u]Parker[/name_u]-cool and fresh!

[name_m]Jack[/name_m] - safe, sweet but a little boring to me as I know so many

I love [name_u]Percy[/name_u], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Johannes[/name_m] and [name_u]Rex[/name_u]!
[name_u]Percy[/name_u] - Cute and fun! Yes the [name_u]Percy[/name_u] [name_m]Jackson[/name_m] association exists but more and more boys are being named [name_u]Percy[/name_u] nowadays and I doubt when he’s older anyone will think it’s weird. This is my top choice.
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] - [name_u]Love[/name_u] the [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] Wilde connection. It’s a really handsome choice with the cute nickname [name_m]Ozzie[/name_m].
[name_m]Johannes[/name_m] - Classic and unexpected! I knew a [name_m]Johannes[/name_m] who went by [name_m]Hannes[/name_m] and though it was so cool.
[name_u]Rex[/name_u] - Vintage, handsome and rugged. [name_u]Love[/name_u] it.

I adore [name_u]Rex[/name_u], [name_u]Percy[/name_u] and [name_m]George[/name_m] they perfectly encapsulate old man but modern :slight_smile:

(Sorry just a quick reply I’m in a rush!)
