New for Nelson!!! Top 10 Boys/Girls

[nelsona2]

Hello Again… My husband and I are trying to have a baby and i wanted to get a head start on choosing names for our future little one, especially since our last name seems to rhyme with everything! I figure it will take me forever to choose the perfect name, so why not start now. I listed a few names I love that end in the same sound, but couldn’t give up on them just yet. Please feel free to offer any middle name suggestions etc. Also, I seem to have several unisex names, so would love for you to tell me boy or girl. Lots of these ideas are from other posts, so kudos to the “creative namers” out there!! : )

Boys

[name]Brooks[/name] - I think [name]Brooks[/name] is really cool, and [name]Brooks[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] is great!

[name]Brooks[/name] [name]Alexander[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Brooks[/name] [name]Oliver[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Brooks[/name] [name]Everett[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]

[name]Cash[/name] - [name]Cash[/name] [name]Ryan[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]/ [name]Cash[/name] [name]Maverick[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: I prefer [name]Cassius[/name] (nn [name]Cash[/name]), but [name]Cash[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] definitely flows well! I’d stay away from [name]Cash[/name] [name]Maverick[/name], though, because he’ll sound like a gambler in the [name]Wild[/name] [name]West[/name].

[name]Cash[/name] [name]Alexander[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cassius[/name] [name]Oliver[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]

[name]Graham[/name] - [name]Graham[/name] [name]Maddox[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]/ [name]Graham[/name] [name]Maverick[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: [name]Graham[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] definitely flows, but I’m not a fan of the middle names. [name]Maddox[/name] is 100% Brangelina, and when I hear [name]Maverick[/name], I think of [name]John[/name] McCain (for me, that’s not a good thing) and the movie, [name]Maverick[/name]. Also, because the first name, [name]Graham[/name] ends in M, it blends in with any middle name beginning with M.

[name]Graham[/name] [name]Alexander[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Graham[/name] [name]Elias[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Graham[/name] [name]Phineas[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Graham[/name] [name]Xavier[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]

[name]Kingston[/name] - [name]Kingston[/name] [name]Phoenix[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: This one’s too trendy for me.

[name]Lincoln[/name] - [name]Lincoln[/name] [name]Cash[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: I really like [name]Lincoln[/name], but not with [name]Nelson[/name].

[name]Maddox[/name] - [name]Maddox[/name] [name]Graham[/name]/ [name]Maddox[/name] [name]Sam[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]/ [name]Maddox[/name] [name]Xavier[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: This one’s all Brangelina for me.

[name]Maverick[/name] - [name]Maverick[/name] [name]James[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: This one’s all [name]John[/name] McCain (not a good thing for me, but it may be for you!) and the movie for me.

[name]Phoenix[/name]: I’m not a fan of [name]Phoenix[/name], but I think [name]Mel[/name] B, the Spice Girl, has a daughter named [name]Phoenix[/name].

[name]Sawyer[/name]: Of your trendier choices, I like [name]Sawyer[/name] the best.

[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Cassius[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Everett[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Phineas[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Elias[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Nicholas[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]

[name]Sayer[/name] - I honestly think [name]Sayer[/name] looks like a typo of [name]Sawyer[/name]. I think [name]Sawyer[/name] is great, though!

Girls

[name]Bristol[/name] - [name]Bristol[/name] [name]Ryan[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] or [name]Bristol[/name] [name]Wren[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] (nn: [name]Bryn[/name] or [name]Bren[/name]): [name]Bristol[/name]'s too [name]Palin[/name] and trendy for me, and reminds of [name]Bristol[/name] Myers Squibb, the drug company. What about [name]Willow[/name] or [name]Willa[/name]?

[name]Cedar[/name] - I think this one’s more of a boy’s name to me, but that’s just me. I’d be worried about the “seedy” nickname, though. What about [name]Willa[/name] or [name]Laurel[/name]?

[name]Greer[/name] - [name]Greer[/name] [name]Ireland[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: I really love [name]Greer[/name], but [name]Greer[/name] [name]Ireland[/name] is a bit hard for me to say. I think [name]Maeve[/name]'s great, too!

[name]Greer[/name] [name]Aveline[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Greer[/name] [name]Harper[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]

[name]Harlow[/name] - [name]Harlow[/name] [name]Winter[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: While [name]Harlow[/name] isn’t my style, I do recognize [name]Harlow[/name] [name]Winter[/name] from [name]Nicole[/name] [name]Richie[/name]'s daughter. She definitely doesn’t own the name, but its source is pretty identifiable.

[name]Harper[/name] - [name]Harper[/name] [name]Willow[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]:
[name]Phoenix[/name] - [name]Phoenix[/name] [name]Noah[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]

[name]Piper[/name] - [name]Piper[/name] [name]Greer[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]/ [name]Piper[/name] [name]Kennedy[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: I think [name]Piper[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] definitely works, but I’m just not a fan of [name]Piper[/name]. ([name]Kennedy[/name] means deformed head, so while that combo flows better, well, the meaning prevents me from getting excited about it.)

[name]Piper[/name] [name]Connelly[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Piper[/name] [name]Aveline[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Piper[/name] [name]Finley[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Piper[/name] [name]Julia[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Piper[/name] [name]Quincy[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]

[name]Quincy[/name] - [name]Quincy[/name] [name]Iris[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] (nn: [name]Quinn[/name]): I think [name]Quincy[/name] [name]Iris[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] is great! I also love how the initials work to basically spell “[name]Quinn[/name].” Of the trendier names, [name]Quincy[/name] gets my vote!

[name]Sawyer[/name] - [name]Sawyer[/name] [name]MacKenzie[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: I think [name]Sawyer[/name] could work for a girl, but [name]MacKenzie[/name] is pretty dated.

[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Avalon[/name]
Sawer [name]Adeline[/name]
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Clementine[/name]
[name]Sawyer[/name] [name]Frances[/name]

[name]Sayer[/name] - [name]Sayer[/name] [name]Phineas[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]: [name]Phineas[/name] is a boys’ name, so I’m guessing this one goes with the boys’ names list?

Good luck with everything!

Jjill…thanks so much for the advice.

[name]Graham[/name] [name]Xavier[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] is super cool, young and old… [name]Cash[/name] is probably my #1 still, did you think [name]Cash[/name] [name]Ryan[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] sounded ok? I think the rest of my boy choices do sound pretty trendy! You start to forget where you heard certain names, and everything runs together. Hee Hee

Of the girls, I absolutely love your suggestion with [name]Piper[/name] [name]Finley[/name] [name]Nelson[/name], also like [name]Piper[/name] [name]Iris[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]… [name]Piper[/name] has always been what I thought I would name a little girl, but we had some family friends that named their daughter [name]Piper[/name] (she is now 7-8 yrs old). Since it is not too common, what do you think about still using it? If it’s not a good idea, then I love [name]Quincy[/name] [name]Iris[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] as long as you don’t think it is too common or trendy.

I am crushed that [name]Lincoln[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] doesn’t work, because I love that name!
Also sad about [name]Bristol[/name] because I think it looks and sounds great with [name]Nelson[/name]!

Once again, thank you so much for your thoughts…it’s really fun to see what others come up with!! : )

[cora]

You: [name]Graham[/name] [name]Xavier[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] is super cool, young and old…

Me :I think [name]Graham[/name] [name]Xavier[/name] is totally awesome, too!

You: [name]Cash[/name] is probably my #1 still, did you think [name]Cash[/name] [name]Ryan[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] sounded ok?

Me: I think [name]Cash[/name] [name]Ryan[/name] is just okay, but with your creativity, I think you can definitely find something better! For me, the problem isn’t [name]Cash[/name] [name]Ryan[/name], but [name]Ryan[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]. (I have a think with back-to-back names ending with the same sound, like “in” with [name]Ryan[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]. My ear totally picks up on it, and it’s all I hear. This is just me, though, and many people will firmly disagree.

[name]Cash[/name]/[name]Cassius[/name] [name]Beckett[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] Connolley [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Montgomery[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Evander[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Leander[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] (lee-ander)
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Tobias[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Walker[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Warner[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]McKinley[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Gulliver[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Lysander[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Tolliver[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Corbett[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Blakely[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Kingsley[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Macaulay[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]
[name]Cash[/name] [name]Nickelby[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]

You: Of the girls, I absolutely love your suggestion with [name]Piper[/name] [name]Finley[/name] [name]Nelson[/name], also like [name]Piper[/name] [name]Iris[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]… [name]Piper[/name] has always been what I thought I would name a little girl, but we had some family friends that named their daughter [name]Piper[/name] (she is now 7-8 yrs old). Since it is not too common, what do you think about still using it? If it’s not a good idea, then I love [name]Quincy[/name] [name]Iris[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] as long as you don’t think it is too common or trendy.

Me: Regarding popularity, [name]Quincy[/name] is only in the 500’s for boys, and isn’t even in the top 1,000 names for girls. [name]Piper[/name], on the other hand, is the 200’s (you can look it up on the site), so while it’s definitely more popular than [name]Quincy[/name], it’s not like an [name]Addison[/name] (yet)!

That said, if you love it, use it! You may not mind a name being popular, and that’s great! There’s nothing wrong with using a popular name if it’s the one you love.

For me, [name]Piper[/name] [name]Iris[/name] doesn’t flow, due to the repetitive “eye” sounds in [name]Piper[/name] and [name]Iris[/name]. What about using [name]Iris[/name] or [name]Isla[/name] (eye-la) as a first name? What about:

[name]Piper[/name] [name]Meadow[/name]
[name]Piper[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Piper[/name] Connelley
[name]Piper[/name] [name]Delaney[/name]
[name]Piper[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]

You: I am crushed that [name]Lincoln[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] doesn’t work, because I love that name!
Also sad about [name]Bristol[/name] because I think it looks and sounds great with [name]Nelson[/name]!

Me: That’s only my opinion, and you can take it with a grain of salt! I just have a “thing” with first and last names ending in the same sound, and I’m sure others will really like [name]Lincoln[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]. The bottom line, is that you love the name, and you’re happy with how it sounds.

The same thing goes with [name]Bristol[/name]. If you love it, and don’t mind its [name]Palin[/name]-ness or the drug company thing, then go for it. I and others can give opinions, but yours is the only one that counts in the matter!

[name]Cedar[/name] - Hey this reminds me - I have a friend who is a nanny, she has a little one named [name]Birch[/name]. I think that it would defiently be best for a boy, kind of seems like your style . . .
[name]Greer[/name] - [name]Greer[/name] [name]Ireland[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] - I like [name]Greer[/name] but [name]Greer[/name] [name]Ireland[/name] isn’t quiet right for me . . .

[name]Harper[/name] - [name]Harper[/name] [name]Willow[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] - Super cute
[name]Phoenix[/name] - [name]Phoenix[/name] [name]Noah[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] - Maybe for a name like [name]Phoenix[/name] you should have a more girly middle name, because this sounds more like a boy.
[name]Piper[/name] - [name]Piper[/name] [name]Greer[/name] [name]Nelson[/name]/ [name]Piper[/name] [name]Kennedy[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] - [name]Both[/name] of these are cute! I do like [name]Piper[/name] [name]Greer[/name] a tiny bit more, though.
[name]Quincy[/name] - [name]Quincy[/name] [name]Iris[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] (nn: [name]Quinn[/name]) - Oh this is my new fave of yours! Nice!
[name]Sawyer[/name] - [name]Sawyer[/name] [name]MacKenzie[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] - Ok but the [name]Quincy[/name] combo is a head above the rest!
[name]Sayer[/name] - [name]Sayer[/name] [name]Phineas[/name] [name]Nelson[/name] - This sounds more like a boy too

Yay! Good choices!
