I am due in just under 3 weeks with my first, a boy and I am struggling to narrow down my ever growing list of names. Names which I loved pre-pregnancy but can no longer figure out how I feel at this late stage.
Some names I loved but have been vetoed by partner include:
[name_u]Sullivan[/name_u], [name_m]Ezra[/name_m], [name_u]Kit[/name_u], [name_u]Lennon[/name_u], [name_m]Harvey[/name_m], [name_m]Henry[/name_m], [name_m]Fraser[/name_m], [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], [name_u]Charlie[/name_u], [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
Names we both like but I’m still unsure with:
[name_u]Max[/name_u], [name_m]Louis[/name_m], [name_m]Albie[/name_m], [name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
Possible middle names:
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m], [name_u]Roy[/name_u], [name_m]George[/name_m], [name_m]Allan[/name_m] (open to suggestion as we aren’t using a family name for this)
Open to any combinations or alternative suggestions you might have, my brain can’t figure it out and I’m starting to become desperate. Our last name is Heal and it is important the name we choose sounds good together and flows.
I love [name_u]Max[/name_u]. I think [name_m]Louis[/name_m] is okay and I don’t like [name_m]Albie[/name_m] or [name_m]Calvin[/name_m].
I like [name_u]Sullivan[/name_u] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] so maybe we have similar taste here’s a couple names I like at the moment.
[name_m]Mitchell[/name_m] ([name_m]Mitch[/name_m] for short)
[name_m]Austin[/name_m]
[name_u]Theo[/name_u]
[name_m]Archie[/name_m]
[name_u]Arlo[/name_u]
[name_u]Alfie[/name_u]
[name_m]Ron[/name_m]
[name_m]Russell[/name_m]
[name_m]Harris[/name_m]
[name_m]Harry[/name_m]
[name_m]Tobias[/name_m]
[name_m]Edward[/name_m]
[name_u]Reggie[/name_u]
[name_m]Nate[/name_m]
[name_m]Trey[/name_m]
Maybe you can find a good replacement for a name you like but your husband vetoed:
[name_m]Harvey[/name_m], [name_m]Henry[/name_m] and [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] can be [name_u]Percy[/name_u], [name_u]Joey[/name_u] and [name_u]Teddy[/name_u]
[name_u]Sullivan[/name_u] and [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] can be [name_m]Adrian[/name_m] and [name_m]Aaron[/name_m]
Something classic like [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] can be [name_m]Timothy[/name_m] or [name_m]Nicholas[/name_m]
Unusual like [name_m]Fraser[/name_m] can be [name_m]Rune[/name_m], [name_m]Springer[/name_m] or [name_m]Fisher[/name_m]
Modern like [name_u]Kit[/name_u] and [name_u]Lennon[/name_u] can be [name_u]Vega[/name_u] or [name_m]Jaxon[/name_m]
And if you like [name_u]Max[/name_u] or [name_m]Albie[/name_m], but you’re not so sure, use a longer form.
[name_u]Max[/name_u] can be a nickname for [name_m]Macsen[/name_m], [name_u]Maxime[/name_u], [name_m]Maximillian[/name_m], [name_m]Maddox[/name_m] or even [name_u]Mason[/name_u]
[name_m]Albie[/name_m] can be a nickname for [name_m]Albert[/name_m], [name_m]Alfred[/name_m] or unusual [name_m]Albin[/name_m]
