Looking for a boys name ending in 'son'

Boy Names

[name_m]Hi[/name_m],
I really like the name [name_m]Greyson[/name_m] but my husband isn’t as keen. We want a name ending in ‘son’ but can’t use [name_m]Jackson[/name_m] as its in the family already. Any other suggestions? My husband really likes [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] but I have a strong dislike to the name [name_m]Harry[/name_m] so I’m unsure of this. Thanks for any help.

I don’t think [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] would automatically get shortened to [name_m]Harry[/name_m]. I don’t think you need to worry.

I like [name_m]Anderson[/name_m], [name_u]Hudson[/name_u] and [name_m]Edison[/name_m].

Names that rhyme with [name_m]Greyson[/name_m]: [name_m]Jason[/name_m], [name_u]Mason[/name_u], [name_m]Cayson[/name_m]/[name_m]Kason[/name_m]/however you want to spell it,

Other ‘son’ ending names: [name_u]Emerson[/name_u], [name_m]Edison[/name_m], [name_u]Ellison[/name_u], [name_m]Anderson[/name_m], [name_u]Hudson[/name_u], [name_m]Wilson[/name_m], [name_m]Aston[/name_m] (not quite [name_m]Son[/name_m] but almost)

I think [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] is cool! I know a little boy named [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] and he’s never called [name_m]Harry[/name_m], so I don’t think you have to worry.

[name_u]Carson[/name_u], [name_m]Dawson[/name_m], [name_m]Benson[/name_m], [name_u]Tyson[/name_u], [name_m]Garrison[/name_m], [name_m]Samson[/name_m], [name_u]Hudson[/name_u], [name_u]Jameson[/name_u], [name_m]Wilson[/name_m], [name_m]Nelson[/name_m], [name_m]Orson[/name_m], [name_m]Pierson[/name_m], Watson

Maybe you could see if there are any -son surnames in your family tree.

My favorite -son names are [name_m]Anderson[/name_m], [name_u]Carson[/name_u] and [name_m]Harrison[/name_m].
My husband’s favorite name is [name_m]Greyson[/name_m]/[name_m]Grayson[/name_m]! But like your husband, I’m not too keen on it. It is a cool name, but might be too trendy for me.
