We are expecting our 3rd baby in [name]August[/name] … It’s another boy (we are thrilled)
But we cannot agree on any names… We want to keep it at just one syllable like his older brothers ([name]Lex[/name] 3 & [name]Ace[/name] 18months) and we also don’t want names that are too common or popular ( like to be a bit different).
The names on our short list are …
Bam (as in Bam Margeira - hubby’s fave)
[name]Beau[/name] (my fave but know a little girl called beau, don’t want the same as anyone I know)
[name]Jude[/name] (second fave but worried its already too popular)
[name]Spike[/name] ( hubby not keen but it rocks my world )
[name]Fox[/name]
[name]Nash[/name]
[name]Knox[/name]
[name]Roux[/name]
I really like [name]Jude[/name], but I don’t think it goes that well with your other two. [name]Fox[/name] is pretty cool, but has the same ending as [name]Lex[/name], so it almost sounds like too much. Out of your options, I think I like [name]Roux[/name] the best, but it also makes me think of [name]Rue[/name] from Hunger Games, so that would depend on if it bothered you. If it does bother you, then I would go with [name]Nash[/name].
I can’t think of any one syllable names off the too of my head at the moment, but I will post back if I do!
Well I think Bam and [name]Spike[/name] are a bit much (even though I like Bam Margeira). I really like [name]Beau[/name], [name]Jude[/name], and [name]Fox[/name]. [name]Fox[/name] is definitely my favorite!

[name]Vance[/name]

[name]Ash[/name]
[name]Bram[/name] (sounds close to Bam, but is a little more usable [name]IMO[/name])
[name]Graham[/name]
[name]Grey[/name]
[name]Hawk[/name]
[name]Jazz[/name] (I’ve known 1 boy named [name]Jazz[/name] and he loved his name)

[name]Dune[/name]
[name]Frost[/name]
[name]Thane[/name]
[name]Tor[/name]
[name]Blair[/name]
[name]Boone[/name]
[name]Sage[/name]
[name]Fox[/name] is my favourite from your list, followed by [name]Jude[/name].
I prefer [name]Bram[/name] to Bam.
I like:
[name]Rhys[/name]
[name]Rhett[/name]
[name]Wolf[/name]
[name]Heath[/name]
[name]Flint[/name] - The stone, rarer name than [name]Finn[/name]/[name]Flynn[/name].
[name]Hugh[/name]
[name]Hart[/name]
[name]Pax[/name] - but maybe too [name]Jolie[/name]? I like the peaceful meaning.
[name]Paz[/name]
[name]Pike[/name] - I love this one, your love for [name]Spike[/name] reminded me of it. I like that this is a bit of a nature name and a bit of a weapon name.
[name]Quade[/name] (maybe save this for the next boy though…)
[name]Zane[/name]
[name]Zed[/name]/[name]Zeb[/name]
[name]Blade[/name]/[name]Blaze[/name]
I love all these suggestions! The only one I can think to add is [name]Mac[/name]. Similar to [name]Max[/name] but I think it’s a little spunkier and more unique which makes if fit better with super cool [name]Lex[/name] and [name]Ace[/name].
[name]Lex[/name], [name]Ace[/name], and [name]Mac[/name].
I can only add a few: [name]Mick[/name], [name]Tyr[/name], and [name]Lon[/name]. I love [name]Mick[/name] as a nn, but it might work as a full name. Someone here mentioned [name]Tyr[/name] once, and I really like it. I have loved [name]Lon[/name] for a while, but DH doesn’t like it as much. Oh, just thought of a couple more: [name]Todd[/name] and [name]Keith[/name]. Well known, but not used very often any more.
[name]Lex[/name], [name]Ace[/name] and [name]Beau[/name] sounds so cool - but obviously if you don’t want to use [name]Beau[/name] then I guess that’s out.
[name]Jude[/name] is one of my favourite boys names but it seems too normal to go with [name]Lex[/name] and [name]Ace[/name].
[name]Knox[/name], [name]Roux[/name] and [name]Fox[/name] are pretty cool - love [name]Knox[/name] - but then [name]Ace[/name] seems a little odd with other names ending in an ‘x’.
I like [name]Jude[/name] (but seems a little conservative somehow with big brothers), [name]Fox[/name], [name]Nash[/name] and [name]Knox[/name] from your list but don’t really like the repeating x ending. That leaves [name]Nash[/name] I guess.
I like the suggestion of [name]Bram[/name], could even use the nn Bam with it.
If you were to go with [name]Beau[/name], I think the spelling [name]Bo[/name] looks better with [name]Lex[/name] and [name]Ace[/name] because it looks [name]WAY[/name] tougher.
Others that I think would go very well with the super cool [name]Lex[/name] and [name]Ace[/name] are:
[name]Jett[/name]
[name]Cash[/name]
[name]Van[/name]
[name]Mac[/name]
[name]Zane[/name]
Suggestions:
Arrow
Tex
Bram
Brahm
Vance
Rex
Cash
Steel
Slate
Slade
Stig-there’s a character from a British tv show called “The Stig” (show is called Top Gear, a car show, Stig is the race car driver)
From your list I love Beau, Knox, and Roux. I think Fox goes best with the sibset if that’s your main concern. Please, anything but Spike. No offense to anyone, but Spike should strictly be used as a nn or for a dog. Spike would be a great name for a tough-looking dog. Actually wasn’t there a vampire character from Buffy the Vampire Slayer named Spike, very blond hair, little guy?
[name]Love[/name] previous suggestions of [name]Cal[/name], [name]Thor[/name], [name]Duke[/name], or [name]Boss[/name]. Another suggestion is Hoss. I would love to meet a little boy named Hoss. [name]How[/name] about [name]Skip[/name]? My friend’s dad is [name]Skip[/name].
[name]Lex[/name] [name]Steel[/name] is a pornstar
…and I only know that because I saw a non X-rated documentary where pornstars were talking about their childhoods
