I have three wonderful boys [name]Theodore[/name] [name]Martin/name, [name]Kaelen[/name] [name]Arthur[/name], and [name]Jensen[/name] [name]Joshua[/name]. We are TTC and so I have started formulating lists of names for boy #4 (it may be silly but I feel like having a few really solid boy names increases the chance of conceiving a girl). The thing is there is not really anything that we are falling in love with.
So here are a few guidelines: the boys all have a family name as a middle name so we would like to try to keep a family connection to the name. (we’ve actually honored 7 ancestors with 4 names already) Men’s names to consider: [name]Paul[/name], [name]Lawrence[/name], [name]August[/name], [name]Emil[/name]. Another possible middle name is my mother-in-law’s maiden name Houk. [name]One[/name] other possibly I like is using the initials CMR ([name]Ross[/name]) so I would share a monogram with the baby.
Finally, as one of three Joshes in a class of 100, my husband really wants to avoid anything too common–but he is not really into anything too “creative” ([name]Kae[/name]'s name was a stretch for him). We where hoping for all the children to have unique initials in our family.
Your suggestions are greatly appreciated!
