I joined the site a while ago and collected some names, and got some fantastic help on the forums, but then we moved house and things got a little hectic so I haven’t been on in a while properly! Our son is due in about a month and we haven’t finalized any names at all. Our list is similar to the one I last posted but we feel like we need to start over with an open mind as we really can’t agree on any of them.
Our list is:
[name_u]Sailor[/name_u]
[name_u]Harbor[/name_u]
[name_u]River[/name_u]
[name_m]Lelan[/name_m]
[name_u]Roan[/name_u]
[name_u]Zen[/name_u]
[name_m]Quill[/name_m]
[name_u]Vale[/name_u]
[name_f]Journey[/name_f]
[name_u]Wynn[/name_u]
[name_m]Axl[/name_m] (DH said NOT [name_m]Axel[/name_m], it has to be [name_m]Axl[/name_m]. :rolleyes:)
Zephan
But we can find disadvantages to most of them, really. [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] is one that we’re most unsure of because it’s mainly used as a girls name. I did some research on it being used as a name and found a few boys called [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] online that made me feel more confident about it but we’re still unsure. [name_f]One[/name_f] of them was bleubird vintage’s little boy (who made me love the name even more, really. He’s adorable and now I’m addicted to her blog. Oops.) We have the same issues with [name_u]Harbor[/name_u], my DH thinks its way to feminine.
I love your list!~ I have a few of them on my list as well, and I am also really struggling with finding THE PERFECT one. I’m glad you have [name_u]Vale[/name_u] down as a boy’s name. I agree totally and love it, but my DH thinks it’s more of a girl’s name. It’s hard though because almost all names can be girl names, and people think nothing of it, so what’s left to be a masculine boy’s name?? I love [name_u]River[/name_u] and [name_u]Harbor[/name_u] as well! What about [name_m]Rollins[/name_m]? I kinda like it. I also like [name_m]Lennox[/name_m] but my hubby doesn’t He knows I get the final say, but I want him to love it as well, kwim?
I love [name_u]Roan[/name_u]! Zephan, [name_u]Zen[/name_u] and [name_u]River[/name_u] are also great, but I assume girls when I hear [name_u]Sailor[/name_u], [name_u]Harbor[/name_u] or [name_f]Journey[/name_f], and [name_m]Quill[/name_m] is a big office supplies company.
All of these are solid unisex names. [name_u]Sailor[/name_u] and [name_u]River[/name_u] are my favorites (both are on my own list). I also like [name_u]Roan[/name_u], [name_u]Vale[/name_u], [name_u]Wynn[/name_u]. I prefer [name_m]Quillan[/name_m] to [name_m]Quill[/name_m].
