Naming Baby Boy #1

raeann · November 30, 2018, 12:33pm

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] All.

I have been a longtime nameberry follower but this is my first post.

We are now expecting our first child, a baby boy due in [name_f]April[/name_f]. Luckily I have some time to figure it out but for now I have no idea what his name should be.

I like short, non-made up names and I am ok with nicknames as given names.

So far we kind of like [name_u]Jude[/name_u], [name_u]Theo[/name_u], [name_m]Levi[/name_m], and [name_m]Miles[/name_m] however none of these feel completely right.

Middle name will likely be [name_m]Alexander[/name_m], but there are other possibilities too.

Please, give me some suggestions!!!

Congrats! I love your short list so far - [name_u]Jude[/name_u], [name_u]Theo[/name_u], and [name_m]Miles[/name_m] are fantastic (though [name_m]Levi[/name_m] is not really my style).
