We are having our 4th child and we came up with a cute name, [name_m]Dax[/name_m] [name_u]Shelby[/name_u]. It goes well together, but the problem is that I have a [name_m]Jack[/name_m]. I donāt know if that should bother me or not. I feel like I will mix them up too much or they will think I am calling each other, lol! So we need a new first name for this little one.
I already have a [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Jack[/name_m] and [name_f]Zoe[/name_f]. We do not want to stay with the J theme and didnāt even try to do it when my 2nd boy was born, it just happened.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Iām open to all!
I think you definetly need shorter names to match the sibset, which is why all my suggestions are borderline nicknamey. [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Jack[/name_m] & [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] are all very classic and familiarā¦my suggestions arenāt so, but [name_m]Tav[/name_m], [name_m]Leo[/name_m], etc. have a naturey theme similar to [name_u]Orion[/name_u] and Phoneix from your signature.
[name_u]Dexter[/name_u] [name_u]Shelby[/name_u] nn [name_m]Dex[/name_m]
Orā¦
[name_m]Tav[/name_m]
[name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_m]Adam[/name_m]
[name_u]Desi[/name_u] - runs a bit funny with [name_u]Shelby[/name_u], but I just love this name.
[name_m]Levi[/name_m]
If not [name_m]Dax[/name_m], how about [name_m]Fox[/name_m] or [name_u]Rex[/name_u]?
[name_f]Do[/name_f] you want to keep it one syllable like the other boys?
[name_m]Ike[/name_m]
[name_u]Finn[/name_u]
[name_u]Blake[/name_u]
[name_u]Tate[/name_u]
Wow! Thanks for all the suggestions!! One syllable doesnāt matter. I just needed some suggestions that flow well with [name_u]Shelby[/name_u] and I couldnāt find any!! You have all come up with great names.
[name_u]Dexter[/name_u] - I like it! I donāt think DH will though.
[name_m]Tav[/name_m] - nms
[name_m]Leo[/name_m] - nms
[name_m]Adam[/name_m] - itās ok.
[name_u]Desi[/name_u] - runs a bit funny with [name_u]Shelby[/name_u], but I just love this name. - I agree it doesnāt flow very well with [name_u]Shelby[/name_u].
[name_m]Levi[/name_m] - nms
[name_m]Fox[/name_m] - It could grow on me
[name_u]Rex[/name_u] - Itās cute! Iāll bring this one up.
[name_m]Ike[/name_m] - nms
[name_u]Finn[/name_u] - Iāve been trying to get him to say yes to [name_u]Finn[/name_u] but he keeps shooting it down!!
[name_u]Blake[/name_u] - flows well, will put it on the list.
[name_u]Tate[/name_u] - Itās ok.
[name_m]Zeke[/name_m] - I really like [name_m]Zeke[/name_m]!!
[name_m]Zach[/name_m]/[name_m]Zachariah[/name_m] - I like this too.
I was also thinking [name_u]Lane[/name_u]? [name_u]Lane[/name_u] [name_u]Shelby[/name_u] goes well together, I think?
Too [name_m]Dax[/name_m] and [name_m]Jack[/name_m] sound alike. [name_m]Dax[/name_m] [name_u]Shelby[/name_u] is handsome. I like the suggestions of [name_u]Dexter[/name_u], [name_u]Rex[/name_u], [name_m]Zeke[/name_m], and [name_m]Zachariah[/name_m]!
I like the thought of another Z name. I just typed whatever came to mind, Iām not sure if all are your style or not.
Not a big fan of [name_u]Lane[/name_u] [name_u]Shelby[/name_u]. If I heard that name, my first inclination would be that it is a girl. Not that being a girl is a bad thing, but it could be annoying to deal with the confusion. I also think it lacks some of the āclassicnessā of your other sonsā names. I would suggest:
My first thought was [name_m]Zane[/name_m] [name_u]Shelby[/name_u]-- [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Jack[/name_m], [name_f]Zoe[/name_f], and [name_m]Zane[/name_m]. Other possibilities: [name_m]Zander[/name_m], [name_m]Ian[/name_m], [name_m]Ivo[/name_m], [name_m]Trent[/name_m], [name_m]Cole[/name_m], [name_m]Kent[/name_m], [name_u]Blaine[/name_u], [name_m]Graeme[/name_m], [name_m]Frank[/name_m], [name_m]Milo[/name_m], [name_u]Owen[/name_u], [name_m]Luke[/name_m], [name_m]Mark[/name_m], [name_m]Eli[/name_m], [name_m]Bram[/name_m], and [name_u]Bryce[/name_u].
I think we are going to go with [name_m]Graeme[/name_m] [name_u]Shelby[/name_u]. I love this spelling of [name_m]Graeme[/name_m]!!! It was a name on my list, but DH shot it down awhile ago. Iāve talked him into it! lol. Thank you all for your suggestions and helping me!
