New name needed 🥰

Hey all, just come back from a lovely few days away telling family about baby #3 after having my 12 week scan last week - omg this baby is lively: nonstop kicking & bouncing & flipping round :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I’m 99% set on a girls name but after seeing the baby on screen my top boys choice (Jericho) just doesn’t feel quite right despite my obsession with the name although I definitely ain’t ruling it out!

To be safe I’m searching for back up boy names & would love some suggestions based on the following names: [name_m]Jericho[/name_m], [name_m]Chase[/name_m], [name_m]Taz[/name_m], [name_m]Ares[/name_m], [name_m]Nekoda[/name_m], Marsten, [name_m]Dominic[/name_m], [name_m]Isildur[/name_m], Dracones, [name_m]Timoleon[/name_m], [name_m]Reef[/name_m], [name_m]Kent[/name_m], [name_m]Jeremiah[/name_m], [name_m]Rohan[/name_m], Falko, [name_m]Antonio[/name_m], [name_m]Beckett[/name_m], [name_m]Adler[/name_m], [name_m]Reuel[/name_m], [name_m]Colton[/name_m], [name_m]Lynx[/name_m]

Thanks! :heart:

Before I start I would have you know that I am very picky with boy names. Also, I’m not very good with pronunciations.

Like: Chase, Dominic, Jeremiah, Rohan, Antonio, Beckett, & Colton.
Dislike: Jericho, Taz, Ares, Nekoda, Marsten, Isildur, Dracones, Timoleon, Reef, Kent, Falko, Adler, Reuel, & Lynx.

Jericho- I think of the Jericho in the Bible story … for me it’s a place name, not a baby name.
Taz- sorta looks like a typo of tax. I don’t love how short it is.
Ares- I think of the god … just a myth for me, I’m a Christian. But I don’t like the name anyways.
Nekoda- doesn’t feel like an actual name to me.
Marsten- see above
Isildur- I would pronounce it “iss-ill-dur” I have no idea if that’s the right pronunciation, but I think you’d get a lot of questions on it.
Dracones- pinecones! Reminds me of pinecones. Also, I have no idea how to pronounce this. “draa-cone-ays” maybe?
Timoleon- again, pronunciation … don’t like the name either.
Reef- reminds me of the ocean, coral reefs, etc. I wouldn’t use it on a baby
Kent- I’m not sure what about this name I don’t like. Maybe it just reminds me of the Barbie doll Ken. :woman_shrugging:
Falko- don’t like the sound when you say it aloud
Adler- addled. That’s all I think of.
Reuel- so many vowels! Not sure how to pronounce.
Lynx- the animal … it might evoke teasing.
Chase- I know a few Chases, it’s an okay name.
Dominic- I love the sound of this name. Also, nickname Dom is cute.
Jeremiah- not sure why I like it. Maybe because of the Jeremiah in the Bible.
Rohan- Sorta like a spin on Ronan, it’s cute!
Antonio- I’m partial to this. Nickname could be Tony.
Beckett- one of my top boy names! Love Beckett!
Colton- reminds me of Colton Dixon, a singer.

Please don’t take any of these off of your list just because of me!! Again, I’m VERY picky with boy names!!

Some other suggestions-
James
Jim
Dakota
Timothy
Emmett
Everett
Aaron
Reuben

Edit- needed a break from life so I hope you don’t mind I spilled all my opinions on your names here … I deterred from what you were asking. Sorry!

The first J name that comes to mind that fits the slightly historical yet modern/strong vibe you seem to like is [name_m]Julian[/name_m] or [name_m]Julius[/name_m]. Others would be [name_m]Jermaine[/name_m], [name_m]Jovani[/name_m], and [name_m]Jairus[/name_m].

[name_f]Non[/name_f] J names:

[name_m]Ivo[/name_m]
[name_m]Donovan[/name_m]
[name_m]Merrick[/name_m]
[name_f]Shasta[/name_f]
[name_m]Percival[/name_m]
[name_m]Tristan[/name_m]
[name_m]Xavien[/name_m]
[name_m]Tolliver[/name_m]
[name_m]Halloran[/name_m]
[name_m]Cavanaugh[/name_m]
[name_m]Peregrine[/name_m]

Hopefully these help :slight_smile:
