My husband and I can't agree. Need Help

After an easy go of naming our first two boys, my husband and I are in complete disagreement on a name for our third. Our first two are [name_m]Wesley[/name_m] and [name_u]Ryan[/name_u].

He likes [name_m]Trevor[/name_m], [name_m]Lleyton[/name_m], and [name_u]Maverick[/name_u].

I like [name_m]Dominic[/name_m], [name_m]Leo[/name_m], and [name_u]Connor[/name_u].

Thoughts? Which ones do you prefer? Or, what great names are we missing? I just want to really like a name.

I feel like [name_m]Trevor[/name_m] or [name_u]Connor[/name_u] fit with [name_m]Wesley[/name_m] and [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] well! [name_f]My[/name_f] vote is for [name_u]Connor[/name_u] out of the name options you guys have.

What about…
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], and [name_u]Landon[/name_u]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], and [name_u]Scott[/name_u]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], and [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], and [name_m]Sampson[/name_m]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], and [name_u]Zion[/name_u]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], and [name_m]Preston[/name_m]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], and [name_m]Lewis[/name_m]
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], and [name_m]Colton[/name_m]

Of your current options, I think [name_m]Trevor[/name_m], [name_m]Leo[/name_m], or [name_u]Connor[/name_u] fit best. Other (similar) options that maybe you’ll both like:

Hi there.

Here are my thoughts on the lists:

Trevor-This is not my personal favorite, but it’s completely perfect w/Wesley & [name_u]Ryan[/name_u]. It’s a perfectly nice name. Simple, masculine but not macho, not over done & grows up well.

Lleyton-Hm. The spelling seems a bit complicated. And I don’t care for [name_m]Lleyton[/name_m]. It’s just kind of trendy & modern & also used for girls.

Maverick-I think it’s a cool name, but sometimes I feel like it’s too cool, you know? Like too macho cowboy.

Dominic-That’s a nice handsome classic that you don’t hear a lot. Very nice choice.

Leo-So cute & just the right amount of handsome & quirky. It’s getting popular if that bothers you, but a nice choice none the less.

Connor-This is fine. I feel like it was a little over done in the late 90s/early 2000s. And for some reason [name_m]Conor[/name_m] looks so much nicer to me. More polished.

Here are a few more ideas that you may like:

Austin

Beckett

Brendan

Brennan

Colin

Cullen

Casey

Declan

Dylan

Finn

Holden

Lawson

Nathan

Owen

Travis

Tucker

Zachary

Hope this helps. :slight_smile:

It’s great that you are trying to find a name that you both like as it is important that both of you love, or at least really like, the name you choose. I would suggest setting aside all the favourites as you may be in a bit of a deadlock and start a new search each making a list of “possibilities “. Names that feel similar…

Gabriel
[name_u]Linden[/name_u]
[name_m]Lawson[/name_m]
[name_u]Davis[/name_u]
[name_m]Trey[/name_m]
[name_u]Callum[/name_u]
[name_u]Milo[/name_u]
[name_u]Maxwell[/name_u]
[name_m]Soren[/name_m]
[name_u]Callahan[/name_u]
[name_u]Kieran[/name_u]

It sounds as though these are the two circles of the [name_m]Venn[/name_m] diagram: his likes and your likes.

Are there names in the overlapping space that you both like?

Derek just popped into my head. Anybody like [name_m]Derek[/name_m]?

Good luck!

Travis came to mind! Seems a bit cooler than [name_m]Trevor[/name_m] and more fitting with your vibe?

I think [name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] & [name_u]Connor[/name_u] fit the best together, but [name_u]Maverick[/name_u] is my fave overall.

My alternative suggestion to you would be [name_u]Sawyer[/name_u].

Wesley, [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] & [name_u]Sawyer[/name_u]!

Like [name_u]Connor[/name_u] the best. Followed by [name_m]Leo[/name_m].

Good luck

I love [name_m]Leo[/name_m] with brothers’ names. Here are some more names that came to mind:

Elliot
[name_u]Brooks[/name_u]
[name_u]Reid[/name_u]
[name_u]Everett[/name_u]
[name_m]Graham[/name_m]
[name_m]Cole[/name_m]
[name_u]Blake[/name_u]
[name_u]Charlie[/name_u]
[name_m]Beckham[/name_m]
[name_m]Garrett[/name_m]
[name_u]Hudson[/name_u]
[name_m]Luke[/name_m]
[name_u]Miles[/name_u]
[name_u]Beau[/name_u]

I think [name_m]Leo[/name_m] is a good fit!

Dominic and [name_m]Leo[/name_m] are my personal taste, but I think [name_m]Trevor[/name_m] or [name_u]Connor[/name_u] work better with [name_m]Wesley[/name_m] and [name_u]Ryan[/name_u]. Of the two, I prefer [name_u]Connor[/name_u], as it matches stylistically with [name_m]Wesley[/name_m] and [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] and has a comparable popularity. [name_m]Trevor[/name_m] is not my personal taste, which is also why I prefer [name_u]Connor[/name_u], but it also sounds fine with your boys.

Best of luck deciding!

I love [name_m]Luke[/name_m] or [name_m]Lucas[/name_m].

Your options are way better. I like [name_u]Connor[/name_u] best as a style match with the siblings. [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] and [name_m]Leo[/name_m] are excellent names but more religious connection in my mind.

The first thing to come to mind was [name_m]Wesley[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], and [name_m]Deacon[/name_m]!

[name_m]Derek[/name_m]

Compromise names would be Domeric and [name_m]Clayton[/name_m]
