Hello everyone! Today we found out that baby #3 is going to be a BOY! We’re really thrilled, but I am dreading the name game. We agreed on a girl name, but we have NEVER been able to agree on a boy name! Our last name is Altieri
Our Kids now:
[name]Derek[/name] [name]Robert[/name]
[name]Reagan[/name] [name]Rose[/name]
Names we sorta like:
[name]Ethan[/name] (but I won’t use it due to popularity)
[name]Cole[/name] (Hubby doesn’t [name]LOVE[/name] it - so probably no)
[name]Dalton[/name] (Absolutely won’t happen - I don’t like at all)
So… we aren’t going to use any of the ones I mentioned, but just to give you all a feel of what we like! I really appreciate the help… I think it may be a fight to the bitter end!
[name]Archer[/name]
[name]Bennett[/name] (close to [name]Benjamin[/name], which you like, but a surname, like [name]Dalton[/name])
[name]Everett[/name]
[name]Graham[/name]
[name]Miles[/name]
[name]Wyatt[/name]
[name]Cole[/name] was a name that was on our list when we were pregnant with [name]Reagan[/name]. I love it… hubby likes, but doesn’t [name]LOVE[/name] it. Ugh!
Thanks so much! We do like [name]Wyatt[/name] and [name]Graham[/name], but again, nothing we totally love. I think I like [name]Wyatt[/name] the best, but DH has a good friend who has a son named [name]Wyatt[/name]. However, they do live across the country so I’m not sure if it really matters. My very sweet son said that he didn’t like [name]Graham[/name] because all the kids would call him [name]Graham[/name] Cracker. [name]Lovely[/name]… now I’m paranoid about teasing…
Why can’t I just [name]LOVE[/name] a boy name? So frustrating… the only boy name I love is [name]Ethan[/name] and I just can’t do it because it’s so popular. DH and I said 7 years ago if we had a boy his name would be [name]Ethan[/name]… but now it’s super popular… and we both want to give a unique but not crazy name to all of our children.

Thanks for the advice![/quote]
[name]Hi[/name]! I hear you about [name]Graham[/name] Cracker. I was going to suggest [name]Grant[/name], excpet with [name]Reagan[/name], you’d have two Presidential first names. I think that [name]Wyatt[/name] is really handsome, by the way!
I think [name]Ethan[/name] is wondeful, too, and you can always check the Social Security site to see how popyular [name]Ethan[/name] is in your area. There’s a chance it may not be that popular where you are! If you love [name]Ethan[/name], I hoipe you use it!
Some more names like [name]Wyatt[/name] and [name]Graham[/name] that may appeal to you:
[name]Derek[/name], [name]Reagan[/name], and:
[name]Archer[/name]
[name]Abbott[/name] (nn [name]Abe[/name])
[name]Anderson[/name]
[name]Griffin[/name] (nn [name]Finn[/name])
[name]Hudson[/name]
[name]Lawson[/name]
[name]Miller[/name]
[name]Owen[/name]
[name]Preston[/name]
[name]Sawyer[/name]
[name]Sullivan[/name]
[name]Vaughn[/name]
[name]Walker[/name] (Has [name]Derek[/name]'s K sound, which may or may not bother you)
(In the first list, I left out names that ended in N like [name]Reagan[/name], because I wasn’t sure if you were trying to avoid a similar ending. )
