I have never posted here but we are getting desperate. I probably shouldn’t post my last name but it is pretty critical in ruling out some names so I will share: Mudd (no [name]Clay[/name], [name]Dustin[/name], [name]Levi[/name], etc.)
Other stipulations:
Can’t end in ‘N’
Can’t start with a C or K (too close to sibling name)
Needs to be more than one syllable and not something that would always be shortened to one syllable (like [name]Joe[/name]/[name]Joseph[/name])
Can’t be too common, I would prefer it not to be in the top 100
Husband can’t handle anything too “weird”
Names I like but husband shot down - [name]Sawyer[/name], [name]Crosby[/name], [name]Barrett[/name], [name]Brody[/name],
I’m going to try to think of some but in the meantime, may I suggest clicking “Open Super Search” in the upper left corner and entering in some of your stipulations (my apologies if you already know about/tried this)
EDIT: Here are the names:
I’ve mostly included two-syllable names, if you need more I can think up names with more syllables…

Oooooh, I love a good challenge! Too bad about the ones he shot down; I really like [name]Barrett[/name] and [name]Crosby[/name] especially! With the one syllable criterion, do you mean something that won’t be regularly shortened, or ever? Like [name]Barrett[/name] could be [name]Bear[/name] now and then at home, but most people would’ve used [name]Barrett[/name]? Sorry for repeats (consider them seconded!):
[name]Asa[/name]
[name]Ari[/name]

[name]Banner[/name]
[name]Banning[/name]

[name]Brady[/name] (better for husband than [name]Brody[/name]?)
[name]Bridger[/name]
[name]Davis[/name] (I don’t think [name]Dave[/name] is likely or inevitable)
[name]Dexter[/name]

Why don’t you look at the list for boys called Names Dads Like More Than Moms? I’d present the list to him and see which ones interest him. You could also browse Nameberry together since it’s easier to say what you don’t like than like.
