[name_m]Hi[/name_m] again!
Here is my favorite to least favorite from this list:
Finn-I love the simplicity & charm of just [name_u]Finn[/name_u]. It’s sporty & spunky & sleek. Simple & well known, but not too popular. And obviously perfect w/Liam & a [name_u]Mack[/name_u] ln.
Finlay-It’s kind of annoyingly popular for girls, but I find it so handsome & adorable on a boy.
Ronan-I love this. It’s a great balance of sweet & strong. Simple but not popular. And Gaelic!
Jack-I love the simplicity & timeless vibe of this one. Really nice w/Liam.
[name_u]August[/name_u] ‘Gus’-Very handsome & [name_u]Gus[/name_u] is sweet & old fashioned.
Rafferty-I like it. I like it mainly for the nn [name_u]Rafe[/name_u]. It sounds great & w/a ‘Mack’ ln. It’s really different. Maybe not too complicated?
Rowan-I think it’s sweet & I like the nature-y -ness of it. [name_m]Ronan[/name_m] is a bit less common though, but they’re both good.
[name_m]Alasdair[/name_m] ‘Alec’-I 've never thought of [name_m]Alec[/name_m] as a nn for [name_m]Alasdair[/name_m]. I really like [name_m]Alec[/name_m], & it barely makes sense as a nn for [name_m]Alexander[/name_m], but I like this better! [name_m]Alasdair[/name_m] is a little complicated, but cool & smart anyway.
Flynn-I like it. I don’t know why I don’t like it nearly as much as [name_u]Finn[/name_u].
Malcolm-I think that it’s a really cool strong name. It may be too much w/a [name_u]Mack[/name_u] ln, but maybe not.
Evan-I love the name [name_m]Ewan[/name_m], so I should like this. But I just don’t for some reason. Maybe it feels too 90s?
Jasper-I really like [name_m]Casper[/name_m], but can’t get into this one. It feels goofy to me for some odd reason.
Griffin-I don’t like it much, because it reminds of the word gruff.
Ethan-It’s totally fine. It just feels a bit bland & over done. I don’t mind a popular name like [name_m]Jack[/name_m] or [name_u]Liam[/name_u] for that matter (love [name_u]Liam[/name_u], actually!). But [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] just doesn’t sparkle.
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps.
