Gave DH a baby name book and asked him to pick out his favorite names. [name]Just[/name] curious what you ladies think of them.
[name]Adam[/name]

[name]Austin[/name]
[name]Bradley[/name]
[name]Carter[/name]
[name]Connor[/name]
[name]Davis[/name]

[name]Ethan[/name]
[name]Hunter[/name]
[name]Maddox[/name]
[name]Mason[/name]
[name]Warren[/name]
[name]William[/name]
[name]Winslow[/name]
[name]Mason[/name], [name]Ethan[/name], and [name]Aiden[/name] are all in the top 10, which is too popular for me.
[name]Bradley[/name] is a little dated for me.
[name]Maddox[/name] only reminds me of [name]Angelina[/name] [name]Jolie[/name].
[name]Adam[/name] is my favorite of the list. It’s classic and non-trendy.
I like:
[name]Adam[/name]
[name]Aiden[/name]
[name]Conner[/name]
[name]Davis[/name]
[name]Ethan[/name]
[name]Maddox[/name]
[name]Mason[/name]
[name]William[/name]
Sort I know that doesn’t narrow it a whole lot…
My favs from that list:
[name]Aiden[/name]
[name]Austin[/name]
[name]Carter[/name]
[name]Connor[/name]
[name]Ethan[/name]
[name]Hunter[/name]
[name]William[/name]
They are all good, classic names though in my opinion. good job to the hubby!
I really like [name]Adam[/name]. [name]William[/name] is nice too. I really dislike [name]Maddox[/name] and [name]Warren[/name].
I like [name]Adam[/name], [name]William[/name], [name]Aidan[/name], and [name]Eli[/name]! [name]Adam[/name] is by far my favorite, though, I really love it. Maybe he could come around to [name]Elijah[/name] nn [name]Eli[/name] or [name]Elliot[/name] nn [name]Eli[/name]?
Good luck!
I like [name]Adam[/name], [name]Eli[/name] (especially if it was short for [name]Elijah[/name]), and also [name]William[/name] and [name]Winslow[/name]. [name]Love[/name] “[name]Win[/name]” as a nn.
I like these:
[name]Adam[/name]
[name]Carter[/name] - Bit popular, but a solid name
[name]Connor[/name] - [name]Love[/name] love
[name]Eli[/name] - Like, could be short for [name]Elijah[/name], [name]Elias[/name], or even [name]Elliot[/name] as a stretch
[name]Hunter[/name]
[name]Maddox[/name]
[name]William[/name] - [name]Love[/name] this wonderful Classic, with so many nicknames! [name]Liam[/name], [name]Will[/name], [name]Billy[/name], [name]Willie[/name], etc!
And a bit shocked to see [name]Winslow[/name] on there, it’s not a name I’d expect a man to like, it sounds a bit wimpish?
[name]Adam[/name]–not my favorite, but classic & biblical.
[name]Aiden[/name]–SO popular right now, I used to like it before the craze for this name got, well, kinda crazy!
[name]Austin[/name]–I do love [name]Austin[/name] as I was a nanny for a beautiful 3-year-old boy with this name. He often went by ‘Aus’ (pr. ‘[name]Oz[/name]’) or ‘Aussie’. [name]LOVE[/name] the nicknames!!!
[name]Bradley[/name]–NMS.
[name]Carter[/name]–Getting popular, I like it okay I guess.
[name]Connor[/name]–It’s all right, does not make a huge impact on me personally.
[name]Eli[/name]–Like.
[name]Ethan[/name]–Popularity might be an issue again on this one, big time.
[name]Maddox[/name]–All I can think of is [name]Angelina[/name] [name]Jolie[/name]'s adopted child named [name]Maddox[/name] whenever I see this name…
[name]Mason[/name]–I also was a nanny to a 2-year-old named [name]Mason[/name]; I often called him ‘Masey’ or ‘Mase’. [name]Love[/name] the nn’s and the name.
[name]William[/name]–Classic, love the nn possibilities of [name]Liam[/name]/[name]Will[/name], etc.
[name]Winslow[/name]–Different & interesting.
[name]Adam[/name] - I like it, but I know SO many my age.
[name]Aiden[/name] - Prefer the “correct” spelling of [name]Aidan[/name].
[name]Austin[/name] - [name]Kinda[/name] like it.
[name]Bradley[/name] - [name]Love[/name] it! It’s my cousin’s name. He goes by [name]Brad[/name] with his friends but we all still call him [name]Bradley[/name] 
[name]Carter[/name] - [name]Love[/name]!
[name]Connor[/name] - Another love!
[name]Davis[/name] - It’s ok.
[name]Eli[/name] - Prefer it as a nn, for [name]Elijah[/name] or something.
[name]Ethan[/name] - [name]Love[/name] but too popular for me.
[name]Hunter[/name] - NMS.
[name]Maddox[/name] - NMS.
[name]Mason[/name] - Not bad. Super popular here though.
[name]Warren[/name] - It’s ok.
[name]William[/name] - A good, strong name.
[name]Winslow[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t really like it.
[name]Adam[/name] - I like it–it’s a good, solid name that stands the test of time.
[name]Aiden[/name] - Once upon a time, [name]Aidan[/name] was a lovely name. And then… Attack of the [name]Aidan[/name] Clones. So no on this one.
[name]Austin[/name] - [name]LOVE[/name]. It’s been in the Top 1000 since 1880, so I’d say it stands the test of time.
[name]Bradley[/name] - Not bad.
[name]Carter[/name] - I love this.
[name]Connor[/name] - Seems like every few boys I hear about are named [name]Connor[/name]. I’m so sick of the name. It’s nice, though.
[name]Davis[/name] - I prefer [name]David[/name].
[name]Eli[/name] - [name]LOVE[/name]. This could be a good choice, since you like [name]Elijah[/name].
[name]Ethan[/name] - I like it but it seems to be so popular.
[name]Hunter[/name] It’s okay.
[name]Maddox[/name] - NMS
[name]Mason[/name] - So over it. It’s number one here in Ohio, and it seems like every other kid is a [name]Mason[/name].
[name]Warren[/name] - It’s okay.
[name]William[/name] - [name]LOVE[/name]. A versatile classic.
[name]Winslow[/name] - NMS
I really dis-like [name]Bradley[/name], but [name]Adam[/name] is nice
–
[name]Stephanie[/name] [name]Elle[/name]
[name]Adam[/name] - nice solid biblical name that seems underused
[name]Aiden[/name] - so popular
[name]Austin[/name] - I rather like this softer-sounding yet strong place name
[name]Bradley[/name] - eh
[name]Carter[/name] - as in pushing a cart around?
[name]Connor[/name] - not bad
[name]Davis[/name] - I like [name]David[/name] or [name]Dafydd[/name] (day-vith) better.
[name]Eli[/name] - feels like it’s missing something
[name]Ethan[/name] - I rather like this, though apparently it’s popular
[name]Hunter[/name] - bow! pang! I just shot a bird!
[name]Maddox[/name] - kind of close to buttocks
[name]Mason[/name] - love!
[name]Warren[/name] - I haven’t heard this one in a while. The only thing putting me off is the “war” at the beginning.
[name]William[/name] - love! (so long as it’s [name]Will[/name] or [name]Willie[/name], not [name]Bill[/name] or [name]Billy[/name])
[name]Winslow[/name] - a surname that should probably stay a surname
[name]Adam[/name] - [name]Adam[/name] is alright, it just never stands out to me. Seems to be a safe, standard choice.
[name]Aiden[/name] - in my opinion, it’s simply too popular to use!
[name]Austin[/name] - I like this one…it isn’t trendy, or overly popular, but it’ll fit right in with the crowd. It’ll age well too.
[name]Bradley[/name] - a little dated and whiney-sounding.
[name]Carter[/name] - it’s alright.
[name]Connor[/name] - I like this! A calm, comfortable name that a boy would probably like to have. [name]Connor[/name] has a very friendly, intelligent image to me.
[name]Davis[/name] - a twist on [name]David[/name]. I’m not sure if I like this or not, but there’s nothing wrong with it. It would also age very well. I can see it on a baby, teen, or man.
[name]Eli[/name] - great name!
[name]Ethan[/name] - too popular!
[name]Hunter[/name] - I just don’t like the image this one comes with.
[name]Maddox[/name] - trendy
[name]Mason[/name] - too popular.
[name]Warren[/name] - to me, it sounds like a creep’s name. [name]Don[/name]'t know why!
[name]William[/name] - wonderful, solid classic with many lovely nicknames
[name]Winslow[/name] - this is neat!! I like nn [name]Win[/name].
My favourites:
#1. [name]Connor[/name]
#2. [name]Eli[/name]
#3. [name]William[/name]
#4. [name]Davis[/name]
#5. [name]Austin[/name]
The rest, I’m not a huge fan of. But overall, a pretty decent list!! Lots of potential!
In order of liking
[name]Eli[/name] - love
[name]William[/name] - lovely classic name
[name]Ethan[/name] -like
[name]Davis[/name] - not bad
[name]Adam[/name] - meh, not bad, just boring
[name]Maddox[/name] - not terrible, good way to get to [name]Max[/name]
[name]Winslow[/name] - nn? not horrible, but not a favorite
[name]Aiden[/name] - so freaking popular
[name]Hunter[/name] -meh, overused
[name]Austin[/name] - popular and a place name, bad combination
[name]Mason[/name] - no nickname
[name]Bradley[/name] - pretty boy
[name]Carter[/name] /[name]Connor[/name] - surname and cutesy
[name]Warren[/name] - no nickname and ugly
At least you both like [name]William[/name], [name]Carter[/name] and [name]Eli[/name]/[name]Elijah[/name]. Good start!
[name]Adam[/name] - OK, just don’t love it
[name]Aiden[/name] - prefer it spelt [name]Aidan[/name], but hate how popular it is
[name]Austin[/name] - not a huge fan, for some reason feels too trendy and almost girly for me
[name]Bradley[/name] - quite like it
[name]Carter[/name] - like this too
[name]Connor[/name] - and this
[name]Davis[/name] - not a huge fan, would prefer [name]David[/name]
[name]Eli[/name] - like as a nickname for [name]Elijah[/name] or [name]Elias[/name]
[name]Ethan[/name] - like
[name]Hunter[/name] - I like it, but I know some people are put off by the violent connotations of this name
[name]Maddox[/name] - don’t like for a boy, as the nickname [name]Maddie[/name] is so common for girls these days
[name]Mason[/name] - put off by this since it was used by a Kardashian
[name]Warren[/name] - don’t mind this, it’s a strong name
[name]William[/name] - OK, but already a lot of [name]Wills[/name] and Wiliams, and will probably only rise as [name]Prince[/name] [name]William[/name] eventually becomes [name]King[/name]
[name]Winslow[/name] - don’t like it. [name]Winston[/name] would be better, sounds more masculine
I like [name]Davis[/name], [name]Eli[/name], and [name]Winslow[/name] best – and actually, the guy didn’t do too badly! We know for sure he likes two-syllable names that are popular/familiar but not (except [name]William[/name]) traditional. So if you want to nudge him beyond this list, you might keep those parameters in mind.
