(Not expecting, just mulling.)
Our surname sounds like “bins.” DH and I both like the idea of an alliterative name—especially DH, whose own name is alliterative. Problem is, most of the B names I like ([name_m]Brooks[/name_m], [name_u]Blaise[/name_u], [name_u]Bennett[/name_u], [name_f]Brynn[/name_f], [name_f]Bess[/name_f]) sound dreadful with our surname.
We’re both warming up to [name_m]Byron[/name_m] for a boy; otherwise, I’m stuck there. He’s brought up [name_u]Brixton[/name_u].
For a girl, I like [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Bryony[/name_f] and [name_f]Bria[/name_f], but he’s… not enamored.
So: Help me fall in love with some B names that don’t clash terribly with our surname! TIA

Thank you all for the ideas! I love [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] and [name_u]Barrett[/name_u], and I’m pondering [name_u]Bellamy[/name_u], [name_u]Blaine[/name_u], [name_u]Brighton[/name_u] and [name_f]Birdie[/name_f]. [name_f]Brienne[/name_f] is lovely too.
