General Name Discussion

Hey guys! My husband and I are expecting our first baby together in [name_u]August[/name_u] and I’m searching for some fresh name inspiration. [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] is pretty much set for a girl, but none of the boy name I like seem right. Names on our boy’s list that we both really like are [name_u]Gray[/name_u]/son, [name_u]Cruz[/name_u], [name_m]Calvin[/name_m], [name_m]Charles[/name_m] “[name_u]Cal[/name_u]”, [name_m]Eli[/name_m], [name_m]Giovanni[/name_m], [name_u]Sage[/name_u], and [name_u]Easton[/name_u], but as I said none of them seem quite right. Names we like but can’t use are [name_u]Kai[/name_u] (we could maybe still use it in the middle spot), [name_m]Jackson[/name_m], [name_u]River[/name_u], and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]. Older siblings are my beautiful step-loves, [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] and [name_m]Wyatt[/name_m].

So basically, what would you name my child? Also what middle names do you like with [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]? I kind of like [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Maisie[/name_f], but our last name is a Mc- name ending in -ey so [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] doesn’t sound great, help me!!!

Thanks!

Oooh, I’ve never heard [name_m]Charles[/name_m] nn [name_u]Cal[/name_u] before, I think that’s really cool. As for suggestions of other names, I would say maybe [name_m]Colin[/name_m], [name_m]Xander[/name_m], [name_m]Kellen[/name_m], [name_u]Jensen[/name_u], [name_u]Quinn[/name_u], [name_u]Emmett[/name_u], [name_m]Brant[/name_m], [name_m]Bennett[/name_m], [name_u]Ellis[/name_u], Daclan, [name_m]Decker[/name_m]?
As for middles for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], I like [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Zadie[/name_f], [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Georgia[/name_f], [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Bella[/name_f], [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Ella[/name_f], [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Soleil[/name_f], or [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Zelda[/name_f]. [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] is cute too:) [name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps!

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

[name_f]Winnie[/name_f] & [name_m]Wyatt[/name_m] are so cute! [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] would be lovely for their sister. I like a lot of your boy names, but of the ones that you can use I’d choose [name_u]Cal[/name_u]. Either [name_m]Calvin[/name_m] or [name_m]Charles[/name_m] are both very handsome. [name_u]Cal[/name_u] is such a cool, confident nice guy name. And it sort of reminds me of a rugged baseball player guy too.

Other boy suggestions:

[name_u]August[/name_u]/[name_u]Gus[/name_u]

[name_m]Beckett[/name_m]/[name_u]Kit[/name_u]

[name_m]Bruno[/name_m]

[name_u]Chase[/name_u]…or [name_m]Charles[/name_m] nn [name_u]Chase[/name_u]

[name_m]Chance[/name_m]…or [name_m]Charles[/name_m] nn [name_m]Chance[/name_m]!

[name_m]Clive[/name_m]

[name_u]Schuyler[/name_u]

[name_m]Thatcher[/name_m]/[name_m]Thatch[/name_m]/Thax

[name_m]Tucker[/name_m]

Oh, and as for a mn to [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]…

[name_f]Alice[/name_f]

[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]

[name_f]Daisy[/name_f]

[name_f]Emily[/name_f]

[name_f]Felicity[/name_f]

I love the name [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] as a fn, but it seems too nick-namey in the mn spot.

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps. :slight_smile:

Thanks for responding guys, I really appreciate it:)

@mayafly00 I like several of the boy name you suggested and I’ll definitely mull them over! I love [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Georgia[/name_f] and [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Zelda[/name_f] too, definitely going on the list!

@michellem I really like [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] with the nn [name_u]Kit[/name_u], I don’t know why that never occurred to me before!!! I also like [name_m]Levi[/name_m] and [name_u]Sawyer[/name_u], and [name_m]Thatcher[/name_m] is one that I hadn’t thought of before but its intriguing:) And I love the way [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] sounds with our last name!

A girl in my son’s class last year was named [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Serenity[/name_f], which I thought was gorgeous!
For boys, you might like: [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m], [name_u]Paxton[/name_u], [name_m]Garrett[/name_m], [name_u]Mason[/name_u], [name_m]Wilder[/name_m], [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] “[name_u]Freddie[/name_u]”, or [name_u]Remy[/name_u].
Good luck!
