it took so long for me to be excited by my girls! i think the fact that my list is so solid was a big reason for that, but now i’m enjoying that solidness and just feeling bleh and bored with the boys, haha. i quite like edwin “win,” elwood, bennett, solomon, alder, and ellis! thank you!

Ugh, I’ve also been feeling so uninspired by my names recently, so I’m really feeling this post! It’s so frustrating! I’ve listed a few names below that I particularly fit your lists, and hopefully some stand out. It’s always nice to take a peek at a fresh batch of names to get the creativity flowing again.
[name_m]Aven[/name_m]- Clearly I don’t even need to pitch him any more, since you’ve read my mind and taken a liking to him all on your own.
[name_m]Pascal[/name_m] - [name_m]The[/name_m] word “pastoral” in your post inspired me with this one, since he feels like the epitome of grassy rolling hills and summer afternoons- so drowsily poetic. With a funky nickname like [name_m]Pal[/name_m] or [name_m]Pasha[/name_m] I could really see him fitting!
[name_m]Graham[/name_m] - I’ve always had a soft spot for [name_m]Graham[/name_m]- he just feels so woodsy, rugged, and warm to me, a teddy bear of a name. Plus, the meaning of “homestead” reminds me of your sweet farmhouse aesthetic that so many of your boys embody. A little [name_m]Graham[/name_m] in overalls, chasing the chickens and cuddling by the fire? So cute!
[name_m]Penn[/name_m]- He feels so bouncy and adventurous. I like how he sounds literary, but also a bit mischievous.
[name_m]Frasier[/name_m]- [name_m]Frasier[/name_m] is a little more surnamey than other names on your list, but I quite like him with your boys. He sounds springy and I think the “strawberry” meaning is so darn adorable! Alternate spelling Fraisier.
[name_m]Keats[/name_m] - [name_m]Like[/name_m] the poet? I think these literary surname styles are so sweet in your combos, and the S ending reminds me of names that you like such as [name_m]Wells[/name_m], [name_m]Rivers[/name_m], and [name_m]Brooks[/name_m]. He seems like a darling little bookworm to me, tramping around in boots, collecting pine cones, and scribbling in notebooks.
[name_m]Roscoe[/name_m]- [name_m]The[/name_m] meaning is the inso behind this name. “Deer wood” is so beautiful, no? I love how outdoorsy he is!
[name_m]Bennett[/name_m]- As in, [name_m]Pride[/name_m] and Prejudice? [name_m]The[/name_m] literary connection makes me really like him for you. Could be nicknamed [name_m]Bear[/name_m], perhaps?
[name_m]Floyd[/name_m]- [name_m]Floyd[/name_m] is to go with the other clunky, retro boys you have listed like [name_m]Monty[/name_m], [name_m]Darwin[/name_m], and [name_m]Verne[/name_m]. He’s in that sphere of dusty but soft, and I think he’s just darling!
[name_m]Gene[/name_m]- [name_m]John[/name_m], [name_m]George[/name_m], and [name_m]Gene[/name_m]? He’s classic but spunky and I love to think of a little woodsey [name_m]Gene[/name_m]! I think he’s cuddly and familiar, but also slightly dated in the sweetest way.
[name_m]Adair[/name_m]- Meaning “oak tree”, how cute is that? I love how he’s nature adjacent but also has his own sound. A little clunky, but so warm!
[name_m]Vale[/name_m]- I thought of this because of the similarity to [name_m]Valor[/name_m] (I believe one of your littles?), but I like how [name_m]Vale[/name_m] sounds a bit more mysterious and magical. He makes me think of fog in the woods at dusk, and I think it’s the coolest for a little boy!
[name_m]Glenn[/name_m] To me, [name_m]Glenn[/name_m] bridges the gap between nature name and retro name, and I think that works so well for you. He sounds peaceful and calm, and I love the connection to a forest “glen”.
[name_m]Wade[/name_m]- This is just so cute. He sounds so fresh, dewy, and spunky.
[name_m]Clyde[/name_m]- [name_m]Clyde[/name_m] is so darn adorable to me, and I love his meaning of “cleansing”- it seems to add a spiritual feel to his vintage sound.
[name_m]Warren[/name_m]- [name_f]Imagine[/name_f] brothers [name_m]Warren[/name_m] and [name_m]Graham[/name_m]? He shares that same cozy, cuddly feeling, and makes me think of rabbit warrens- and bedtime rabbit stories like [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] or [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] the Pooh.
I may be back with more later but I hope some of these hit the mark! Good luck!! <3

this is going to be a helpful exercise for me to expand my boy name search as well 
my suggestions, and some assorted thoughts whenever something comes to mind!
[name_m]Sumner[/name_m]
[name_m]Wallace[/name_m] - nickname wally? 
[name_m]Keeper[/name_m]
[name_m]Magnus[/name_m] - i’m always an advocate for magnus! he’d absolutely be on my list if he wasn’t unusable for me. he’s get such a sweet side with the nickname option ‘maggie’
[name_m]Wade[/name_m]
[name_m]Wilbur[/name_m] - inspired by charlottes web! i think he’s so sweet, and due for a revival. so much nickname potential as welll, particularly loving wilbie for you!
[name_m]Scout[/name_m] - i love scout on a boy, especially for your list. he’s sweet, familiar, rugged and playful. i think he’d fit nicely with your girls list too!
[name_m]Painter[/name_m]
[name_m]Rowan[/name_m]
[name_f]Raven[/name_f]
[name_f]Valley[/name_f] - i follow an influencer who has a boy valley, and i feel like it’s so perfectly your style. how pastoral and sweet, yet still rugged and outdoorsy
[name_m]Jem[/name_m]
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m]
[name_m]Gable[/name_m]
[name_m]Peter[/name_m] - hear me out here, i think he might fit perfectly on your list. he’s familiar, like george and john, and yet hes spirited and full of personality, like some of your more quirky choices! i can especially see him with the nickname petey for you
[name_m]Howie[/name_m]
[name_m]Fields[/name_m]
[name_m]Fielder[/name_m] - i really particularly love him (or fields!) for you. nature-y and cozy.
[name_f]Sommer[/name_f]
[name_f]Juniper[/name_f] - i know he’s already on your list, but i want to influence you to add him to your shortlist! he feels incredibly perfect for you. he’s earthy and spiritual, and also so jumpy and spirited
Augie/Auggie
[name_m]Elio[/name_m]
[name_m]Wynn[/name_m]
Oakah - i’ve seen him tossed around the forums a bit recently, (possibly started by @emeraldsea ?) and i think he fits your criteria perfectly.
[name_m]Callahan[/name_m] - specifically with nickname cal!
[name_m]Lowen[/name_m]
[name_m]Hamish[/name_m]
[name_m]Garland[/name_m] - my grandma had a male friend named garland as a teenager!
[name_f]October[/name_f]
[name_m]Orion[/name_m] - i like how his sound is rugged and tough, but the constellation connection gives him a spiritual, soft edge.
[name_m]Abner[/name_m]
[name_m]Wylie[/name_m]
[name_m]Forester[/name_m] - a more rugged, quirky twist on forest!
[name_f]Bliss[/name_f] - i absolutely adore bliss for a boy. he feels very in line with your other wordy names, and so warm and cozy too. i also love him with your girls.
[name_m]Worth[/name_m]
[name_m]Prosper[/name_m] - possibly a more approachable alternative for worthy/bravery? similar sounds, but something about him sounds more name-like to me
[name_m]Trigg[/name_m]
[name_m]Wilkie[/name_m]
[name_m]Weaver[/name_m]
[name_m]Keyes[/name_m]
[name_f]Fifer[/name_f]
[name_m]Gardener[/name_m]
[name_f]Prairie[/name_f]
[name_m]Ogden[/name_m]
[name_m]Eben[/name_m]
[name_m]Acre[/name_m]
[name_m]Leaf[/name_m] - i know of a leaf, and it’s made me really warm up to the name. he feels so approachable, nature-y and offbeat, but not entirely unexpected as a name.
[name_m]Graham[/name_m]
if i were to add only a handful of these to your shortlist, i’d add:
sumner, keeper, magnus, wilbur, scout, valley, peter, fielder, juniper, wynn, oakah, lowen, orion, abner, bliss, leaf & graham

it really is a struggle, isn’t it? of course i’m loving aven — i love him as a take on haven, and he also reminds me of the similar avett, which you might like? pascal “pasha” is sooo smart. i’m also really liking bennett, vale (yes, one of them is valor!), wade, clyde, and warren. the meanings of graham, frasier (soo sweet), roscoe, and adair are so dreamy! was it you who posted the name roger in @lateaugust’s name guru thread? he’s coming to mind with these suggestions, and i’m sort of obsessed with the idea of roger, clyde, and warren as a set. thank you, louise!!
ooh, these are so nice! i’m really enjoying the idea of alisander, beau, bennett, cade, caedmon, fitz, florian, hartwell, junius, laszlo, lowen, quinlan, quinn, selwyn, theomund, and winslow. thank you!!

ooh, this list is so wonderful!!! i was obsessed with valley for a boy several months back, and would 100% have happily had a valley herschel if i’d had a boy! beyond those ones, i’m loving sumner, magnus, wade, wilbur “wilbie,” scout, rowan, peter, fielder “fields,” sommer, juniper, auggie, elio, wynn, oakah, callahan “cal,” lowen, hamish, garland, october, abner, wylie (gosh, i love every spelling and every variation of this name!!), forester, bliss, worth, wilkie, weaver, fifer, gardener, prairie (so cool for a boy!), ogden, eben, acre, and leaf. so basically all of them, haha. thank you, evy!
Hmmm, possibly? I had Roger Viorel as a combo and may have asked about him there. Speaking of, Viorel would be a sweet suggestion for you too! Meaning violet? And I love Roger, Warren, and Clyde as a set!

yes, this was the combo!! i’ve thought about roger “roo” consistently since you posted him there, haha! i’m going to have to play around with viorel. of course i love a good violet name!

I absolutely love [name_m]George[/name_m] and [name_m]John[/name_m] from your list. They feel so steady and warm compared to a lot of modern names, and I think that’s why they stand out to me.
A few names that came to mind whilst reading your post were [name_m]Amos[/name_m], [name_m]Asa[/name_m], [name_m]Hollis[/name_m], [name_m]Ambrose[/name_m], [name_m]Linden[/name_m], [name_m]Edmund[/name_m], [name_m]Walter[/name_m], [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m], [name_m]Orson[/name_m] and [name_m]Winslow[/name_m]. They all give me that same cosy, sunlit, storybook feeling that your girls have. [name_m]Amos[/name_m] especially feels like a little boy running through fields with blackberry-stained hands, and [name_m]Hollis[/name_m] has always felt so gentle and green to me.
I also wonder if you might like names such as [name_m]Alder[/name_m], [name_m]Sylvan[/name_m], [name_m]Elwood[/name_m], [name_m]Walden[/name_m], [name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m], [name_m]Abram[/name_m], [name_m]Joel[/name_m] or [name_m]Jesse[/name_m]. They’re all quite old-fashioned and grounded, but still have that pastoral, slightly literary feel.
Out of your current list, my favourites are [name_m]George[/name_m], [name_m]John[/name_m], [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m], [name_m]Augustine[/name_m], [name_m]Wiley[/name_m] and [name_f]Shiloh[/name_f]. [name_m]George[/name_m] and [name_m]John[/name_m] are definitely the stars though. They’re simple, but in a really beautiful way. Sometimes the names that seem “boring” at first are actually the ones with the most substance.
Your girls list is gorgeous too, by the way. [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Fern[/name_f], [name_f]Agnes[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f] and [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] are especially lovely together.
