So [name_u]Danny[/name_u] is the only thing sticking for a particular character of mine, but I’m hesitant to use it for a few reasons. Anything with the same classic, boyish feel you guys can come up with? Please and thank you!
Classic, boyish feel:
[name_m]Jake[/name_m]*
[name_m]Mike[/name_m]
[name_u]Mickey[/name_u]
[name_m]Steve[/name_m]
[name_m]Tommy[/name_m]*
[name_m]Timmy[/name_m]
[name_m]Jimmy[/name_m]
[name_u]Jamie[/name_u]
[name_u]Joey[/name_u]
[name_u]Bobby[/name_u]
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Matt[/name_m]
[name_m]Rick[/name_m]/y*
[name_u]Andy[/name_u]
[name_u]Nick[/name_u]*
[name_u]Tony[/name_u]*
Same style as [name_u]Danny[/name_u]:
[name_u]Jerry[/name_u]
[name_u]Gary[/name_u]
[name_m]Larry[/name_m]
[name_m]Pete[/name_m]
[name_m]Bill[/name_m]
[name_u]Randy[/name_u]
[name_u]Terry[/name_u]
Full names for [name_u]Danny[/name_u]:
[name_u]Dane[/name_u]
[name_m]Danilo[/name_m]
[name_m]Danil[/name_m]
[name_m]Danger[/name_m]
[name_m]Danko[/name_m]
[name_m]Danner[/name_m]
[name_m]Dante[/name_m]
[name_m]Dantyn[/name_m]
[name_m]Danton[/name_m]
You could always do [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] nn [name_m]Jake[/name_m] or [name_u]Michael[/name_u] nn [name_m]Mike[/name_m] or [name_m]Mikey[/name_m], if one of those names works for you. Also, what is [name_u]Danny[/name_u] like? Is he shy, sweet, loving and caring or is he enthusiastic, smart, brave and a good friend? Plus, what time period is the story set in?
What about [name_m]Benny[/name_m]?
As another already suggested, [name_m]Tommy[/name_m] has the same feel to me. [name_u]Danny[/name_u], [name_m]Tommy[/name_m] and [name_m]Johnny[/name_m] have always kind of gone together in my mind.
[name_u]Rudy[/name_u]
[name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_m]Mack[/name_m]
Auggie/[name_u]Gus[/name_u]
I also like the idea of [name_m]Benny[/name_m], as someone else suggested.
