Hello again!
Im 20 about to be 21 weeks along with our second child. We actually don’t know the gender yet, keeping it a surprise for now.
My husband really likes and has been pushing for the name [name]Cruz[/name] - if its a boy - when i posted that on here nearly a month ago i got some helpful and interesting feedback. Because our surname is a word many berries felt the two names wouldn’t mix.
So to be fair to my hubby im posting again to see if you berries can offer any good names to kind of replace his favorite.
The reasons he has given for liking the name are:
Because he thinks its cool and thinks any young boy would like the name
He likes it trendy sound
He thinks its an athletic type of name (no idea what he actually means by that)
Him liking it has nothing to do with its Spanish heritage btw.
My hubby is quite young at heart and hes a professional rugby player here in NZ so i think that’s why he likes quite masculine names, he views his son(s) as a mini version of him.
I have my own favorites and style of names i guess but if you have any naming ideas that kind of fit his style i would love to hear them so i could suggest to him as a compromise.
Hmm, [name]Cruz[/name]'s sporty, modern sound puts me in mind of…
