No other boy name seems to compare to my first son's name, HELP!

Boy Names

Hey all! I am in desperate need of some help, good ideas!!

Our first son’s name is [name_m]Huxley[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m]. My DH and myself absolutely [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_m]Huxley[/name_m]. It is a strong, tough name and we like that.

Seems like I literally have gone through any and every avenue for names and just can NOT find any that I love, that even compares in my eyes to [name_m]Huxley[/name_m], let alone that the two of us can agree on.

I like a name that has a shorter NN. [name_m]Huxley[/name_m] = Hux

[name_m]Will[/name_m] be a little different, not so common. I dont want a really popular name.

More on the tougher, manly side.

Middle name will be [name_m]David[/name_m].

I greatly appreciate all and any help you guys can give!! 7 weeks left and I’m stressing big time!

[name_m]Bronson[/name_m] comes immediately to mind for you. [name_m]Fletcher[/name_m] and [name_m]Kingston[/name_m] also seem to fit your style.

Currently having the same problem myself with my sons!
Loxley comes to mind if you’re not too worried about the comparison to [name_m]Huxley[/name_m]!

I think [name_m]Branson[/name_m] would be a lovely addition to your family! Or perhaps [name_m]Bramwell[/name_m]…

I think my son’s name, [name_m]Conrad[/name_m] is pretty strong and manly sounding, although I’m not sure if it’s your style. We call our [name_m]Conrad[/name_m] “[name_m]Rad[/name_m]”, sometimes “[name_u]Con[/name_u]”.

I really love [name_m]Huxley[/name_m], but I’d probably avoid any “ley” ending names with that. (It’s too bad, because I love the name [name_m]Bosley[/name_m], nn Boz, but again… too matchy)

Someone suggested [name_m]Bronson[/name_m], which was also what came to mind instantly. Definitely worth considering.

Also, someone mentioned [name_m]Fletcher[/name_m], which I think is strong but also has a playful nn ([name_m]Fletch[/name_m]). Another good one.

I’d like to add:
[name_m]Axel[/name_m]
[name_m]Thatcher[/name_m]
[name_m]Heath[/name_m]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m]
[name_m]Bodhi[/name_m]

16

[name_m]Denzel[/name_m] “[name_m]Den[/name_m]”

17

I like [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m] nn Lach/"[name_m]Lock[/name_m]"

18

Sorry for any repeats:

[name_m]Jared[/name_m]

[name_m]Travis[/name_m]
[name_m]Abner[/name_m]
[name_m]Palmer[/name_m]
