Names that Exude ADVENTURE

ashthedreamer · August 19, 2025, 4:17am

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] berries!

[name_f][/name_f]

I’ve been loving lately that my boys’ list have names and combos that seem to exude adventure to me! [name_f][/name_f] Old cartographers’ maps, climbing [name_m]Denali[/name_m], sword fights with fierce pirates on the open sea, treasure hunting, traipsing through jungles, stargazing and sleeping under star-flung skies, studying maps of the stars with [name_m]Prince[/name_m] Caspian’s professor… I think of all of these things and love the idea of sharing all of these things with my sons one day. [name_f][/name_f] Feeling the longing to sink deep into these kind of names lately, so I’m hoping you’ll indulge me and share some of your favorite names that feel like this for you.

[name_f][/name_f]

Thank you!

[name_f][/name_f]

Oh I love this! [name_f][/name_f] [name_f][/name_f] At first glance, I thought [name_m]Denali[/name_m] was the name that inspired you to create the list, and I’d say [name_m]Denali[/name_m] absolutely fits the vibe! Honestly, [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] too would work! [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]My[/name_f] other first thought was [name_m]Ronan[/name_m].

@halinka - oh, haha, no, Denali is ok but somehow feels off-limits? I couldn’t tell you why, just feels like I don’t have enough connection to it for it to be usable. Caspar is my favorite boys’ name, so probably not Caspian though I’d be open to him somewhere as a middle. Love Ronan, but probably wouldn’t use him since Rowan is in my top 5. I love Aalto, Arcturus, Asher, Blaise, Cassian, Calder, Diego, Drake, Gale, Jonas, Marcellus, Mariner, Sasha, and Zephyr, though, and Cyrus and Soren are already on my list!

@atomicginge - love this list so much! Alaric, Caius/Caio/Caian, Peregrine, Alban, Drake, Mariner, and Ronan are fab, and Cyrus, Orion, Sebastian, Soren, Caspar, Bram, and Torin are on my list already! Never would have thought I’d like Atlas, but I agree he fits this perfectly!

@Greyblue - eep I love Taliesin, Atlas, Brynmor, Shasta (currently reading The Horse and His Boy! Not sure I’d use it over Sasha but he is really cool and fits this imagery!), Sampson, and Tarquin (is he unbelievably posh in the UK? I always got that sense; but he’s so cool!).

@mololy - Desmond, Tristan, and Frey!!! I adore Frey.

@ThunderLee - Alder I should love; but I like Adler and Adlai more… but Adler might be a great idea here? Everest and Forster too!

Side note, IS DRAKE USABLE NOW? A few weeks ago y’all told me it was too tied to the rapper I adore him but talked myself out of adding him to my list… but if he’s cool he is going STRAIGHT back on my list

kachenka · August 21, 2025, 4:44am

You’ve already had a lot of great suggestions so just adding a few with some connection with adventuring professions:

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Tasman[/name_m] (I met a newborn just a few months ago)
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Flynn[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Morgan[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Sully[/name_m]

[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Hale[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Kuiper[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Esau[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Carver[/name_m]

[name_f][/name_f]

Re [name_m]Drake[/name_m] – I may have been one of the few, but when you posted a little while ago I was definitely for using the name. People have mutliple associations to names all the time. It’s no big deal. You meet a young, curious [name_m]Drake[/name_m] and gain a whole new image of it. Put [name_m]Drake[/name_m] back on your list right now without a doubt!

Greyblue · August 21, 2025, 6:48am

I’d say, a little bit posh, but not too posh - but I’m not sure if that’s just because I’ve met an increasing number of regular families using the likes of Barnaby, Augustine, Horatio, Percival, Lorcan and Montague, so I don’t think it’s tooo much

ashthedreamer · August 21, 2025, 1:38pm

Thank you! [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_m]Hale[/name_m] and [name_m]Kuiper[/name_m] (though I think I prefer [name_f]Vale[/name_f] and [name_m]Gale[/name_m] to Hale), and [name_m]Tasman[/name_m] is interesting! [name_f][/name_f] I also like [name_m]Sullivan[/name_m] nn [name_m]Sully[/name_m] a lot!

[name_f][/name_f]

For years I’ve wanted [name_m]Kuiper[/name_m] on my list—I just haven’t found the right combo for him yet!

[name_f][/name_f]

And say no more, I’m leaning toward the same? [name_f][/name_f] There’s some high profile athletes in the U.S. with this name too, which always made me wonder when others said he was completely unusable for the next few years minimum.

ashthedreamer · August 21, 2025, 1:39pm

[name_f][/name_f]

Maybe I should just embrace that posh is my style. [name_f][/name_f] [name_f][/name_f] I’ve got [name_m]Lorcan[/name_m] and [name_m]Barnabas[/name_m] and [name_m]Augustine[/name_m] on my list, love [name_m]Percy[/name_m], why not [name_m]Tarquin[/name_m] too? [name_f][/name_f]
