Names ideas needed

My husband and I agree on one name, [name]Colin[/name], though neither of us are “in love” with the name. I could use some help finding some new suggestions. The baby will have a very Irish ly last name.

I think our hesitation come with name having an easy one syllable nickname (we both do)

We both seem drawn to C names, though certainly not married to them, me more Irish/ Northern European influence and he more of what I would consider “Western” or “Cowboy” names.

Names I like

[name]Casper[/name] (my second choice name)
[name]Cillian[/name]/[name]Killian[/name]
[name]Colin[/name]
[name]Conan[/name] (my first choice name)
[name]Conrad[/name]
[name]Damian[/name]
[name]Declan[/name]
[name]Euan[/name]
[name]Owen[/name]

Names my DH likes
[name]Caden[/name]
Cage
[name]Cale[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name]
[name]Callen[/name]
Campion (his first choice)
[name]Case[/name]
[name]Cassian[/name] (this might work for me since it is similar to [name]Casper[/name], but its not [name]Casper[/name] )
[name]Cian[/name]
[name]Cole[/name]
[name]Colin[/name]
[name]Connor[/name]
[name]McCoy[/name]
McKay (his second choice)
[name]Miles[/name]
[name]Miller[/name]

“[name]Connor[/name]” was going to be my gut response, but I see it’s already on your husband’s list. I’m surprised you don’t like it given it’s similarity to [name]Conan[/name], your top choice! But if it does nothing for you, how about:

[name]Callum[/name]
[name]Dylan[/name]
[name]Ian[/name]
[name]Casey[/name]
[name]Corey[/name]
[name]Gage[/name]

Best of luck!

I suggestion to you would be [name]Kieran[/name], [name]Killian[/name], or [name]Keegan[/name].

you might like [name]Caspian[/name]. it kind of combines [name]Casper[/name] and [name]Cassian[/name].

from your lists I like: [name]Casper[/name], [name]Conrad[/name], [name]Owen[/name], [name]Colin[/name], [name]Connor[/name], [name]Miles[/name]

suggestions:
[name]Cohen[/name]
[name]Camden[/name]
[name]Callum[/name]
[name]Connelly[/name]
[name]Cairn[/name]
[name]Keir[/name]
[name]Kiefer[/name]
[name]Kimball[/name]
[name]Kendrick[/name]
[name]Keegan[/name]
[name]Conroy[/name]
[name]Egan[/name]
[name]Garrett[/name]
[name]Finley[/name]
[name]Flynn[/name]
[name]Leland[/name]
Deland
[name]Ronan[/name]
[name]Bran[/name]
[name]Caswell[/name]
[name]Malcolm[/name]

In addition to some names people have already suggested, [name]Gavin[/name] immediately sprung to mind as a possible option. Also, [name]Sebastian[/name] - but that might be a bit more name than you’re looking for.

I like [name]Callum[/name]. Nickname [name]Cal[/name].

Or [name]Killian[/name]. [name]Kian[/name] or [name]Ki[/name]/Key are nice nicknames. The [name]Cillian[/name] spelling is nice too.

Cainan? nn [name]Cain[/name]

I like [name]Callum[/name] too!

Other names that mean “wolf”, like [name]Conan[/name] does:
[name]Conall[/name]
[name]Channing[/name]
[name]Kennelly[/name]
:slight_smile:

Campion is so cool! As Is your second choice, [name]Casper[/name] (not [name]Caspar[/name]?).

What are your objections to Campion, and your husbands to [name]Casper[/name]?

Honestly, Campion is a show-stopper for me. It is a fairly strong Catholic style statement for those in the know, but I’m not sure the average [name]Joe[/name] wold make that connection. Instead they’d focus on the slick aesthetics and the way it stands out but still fits in with current trends.
