I’ve got a common last name so trying to pick a name that’s at least somewhat less common. Please let me know what you think of these names, specifying favorite and least favorite.
My favourites are [name]Silas[/name], [name]Roland[/name], [name]Luca[/name] and [name]Sage[/name], but of all your choices only [name]Trent[/name], [name]Roland[/name], [name]Drake[/name] and [name]Sage[/name] or not in or only just outside of the top 200. [name]Gabriel[/name] is the most popular name on your list, at 25.
[name]Roland[/name] nn [name]Rollo[/name] is my favourite of the more uncommon ones, but [name]Silas[/name] is my overall favourite
[name]Trent[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- I like this one, not too common but still well known
[name]Seth[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- This is one of my favorites from your list
[name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- I like [name]Gabe[/name], but [name]Gabriel[/name] always seemed a little feminine to me
[name]Sage[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- not my favorite…
[name]Luca[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- cute! I also like [name]Luke[/name]
[name]Nolan[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]–really like this one
[name]Kai[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- seems a little feminine
[name]Roland[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- a little old fashioned for me
[name]Drake[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- very masculine, I tend to think it sounds southern too
[name]Silas[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- not my style
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Matthews[/name]-- I do like this… makes me think of “Lost”, but that’s not really a big deal
I’ve rearranged them from my favorite to least favorite:
[name]Trent[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - I really like this, it sounds like a good old southern boy.
[name]Luca[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - Probably biased because I am used to the names together (my friend’s son is [name]Luca[/name] [name]Mathew[/name]) but I still love the flow of it.
[name]Roland[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - [name]Love[/name] [name]Roland[/name]. Absolutely adore it.
[name]Sage[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - [name]Love[/name] [name]Sage[/name].
[name]Kai[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - [name]Love[/name] [name]Kai[/name], but I am not sure how I feel about it with [name]Matthews[/name]. [name]Just[/name] feels blunt for some reason.
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t love it, don’t dislike it. [name]Just[/name] a good solid name, even if it isn’t something I’d pick.
[name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - [name]Just[/name] don’t like [name]Gabriel[/name].
[name]Seth[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - Or [name]Seth[/name] really.
[name]Drake[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - All I can think of when I hear [name]Drake[/name] is ducks…
[name]Nolan[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - [name]Nolan[/name] just feels so over done. At least where I am from.
[name]Silas[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - “S” overload.
[name]Silas[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - like a lot!
[name]Drake[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - like a lot!
[name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - okay
[name]Trent[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - okay
[name]Seth[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - too many s and th sounds here
[name]Sage[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - feminine
[name]Luca[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - I prefer [name]Lucas[/name] or [name]Luke[/name] or [name]Luc[/name], [name]Luca[/name] sounds either pompous or ethnic
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - trendy
[name]Kai[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - trendy
[name]Nolan[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - meh
[name]Roland[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - blah
[name]Trent[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - seems too “common”
[name]Seth[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - never been a fan of seth
[name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - too religious
[name]Sage[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - Ok
[name]Luca[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - Very nice
[name]Nolan[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - not bad
[name]Kai[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - [name]Kai[/name] is not my favorite. What about [name]Kieran[/name] and you can call him Kie?
[name]Roland[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - old manish
[name]Drake[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - not bad
[name]Silas[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - Prob. my favorite
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] - I find this has been taken over by the girls
I love [name]Silas[/name]. It’s my personal favorite. [name]Roland[/name] is also growing on me! Really they are all great names. In my area (the Midwest) [name]Sawyer[/name] is really popular, and I hear lots of Nolans, Seths, Gabes, and Trents as well. But I wouldn’t say any of them are so over-done that they’ve become “generic”. I like the sound of [name]Kai[/name], but have always felt like it was a nn that needed a formal name, but haven’t found one!
[name]Trent[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] Sounds good together
[name]Seth[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] With two ‘th’ sounds it might sound a little lispy
[name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] NMS
[name]Sage[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] Prefer for a girl
[name]Luca[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] [name]LOVE[/name] -sounds AWESOME!!
[name]Nolan[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] [name]LOVE[/name]
[name]Kai[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] [name]LOVE[/name]
[name]Roland[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] OK
[name]Drake[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] OK
[name]Silas[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] Bit ‘s’ heavy for me personally
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] OK
My favorite by far is: [name]Luca[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] with [name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Matthews[/name] as a close second.
Names I dislike greatly: [name]Trent[/name], [name]Gabriel[/name], [name]Sage[/name], [name]Kai[/name], [name]Roland[/name], [name]Drake[/name] & [name]Silas[/name].
[name]Trent[/name], [name]Nolan[/name], [name]Kai[/name], and [name]Drake[/name] are my favorites of your choices. All are outside the top 50 and sound great with the surname [name]Matthews[/name].
