I’m trying to come up with possible names for my second son, and I’m finding myself even more picky than the first time around
I think the common thread with names I could imagine using is that they are definitively boys names, but not TOO in-your-face about it. Probably because these feel to me like features of my first son’s name (Ezra). (I know what falls in those categories is fairly subjective, though)
I also expect we’ll end up using a single-syllable nickname at some point, so I’ve been generally steering clear of names that are only one syllable or don’t have a good single-syllable nn. Also looking to not match too closely, so no E names, as wonderful as they are! And probably no M names, as they all sound too matchy with our last name to me.
Examples of names I especially like this time around are Alexander, Felix, Nicholas, and Asher.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!!
