Please help us, my baby is due in a few weeks. Months ago we had decided on the name ‘[name]Tate[/name]’ for our 2nd son, but we have since decided against it. Our surname is [name]Brown[/name], so I think this creates the possibility of some potato based nicknames. We are happy to use it as the middle name coz we really like the name…(and it’s the only one we have agreed on!). I am open to any suggestions though. We are at a stalemate now as hubby prefers the older, more common names, and I prefer something a little more modern, but not too unusual or over popular. Our first son’s name is [name]Kyan[/name]
Other names I like at the moment are:
[name]Luca[/name] - popular?
[name]Declan[/name]
[name]Rhys[/name] - too girly?
[name]Caelen[/name] - too similar to my first sons name
[name]Ashton[/name] - nickname ash, ash brown = no good
[name]Austin[/name]
names my husband likes are:
[name]Corey[/name]
[name]Leon[/name]
[name]Lee[/name]
[name]Kobe[/name]
[name]Aaron[/name]
Please help me. [name]One[/name] name, two names, any names???
Thank you!
Not sure where you’re getting potato references with [name]Tate[/name] [name]Brown[/name]. It’s a nice name - modern, but it’s got a classic sound to it. Easy to imagine it on a rambunctious child and a grown man. [name]Ashton[/name] sounds good to me as well. I don’t see a problem with [name]Ash[/name] [name]Brown[/name]. Sounds very nice.
I really like [name]Rhys[/name] [name]Lee[/name] [name]Brown[/name] or [name]Aaron[/name] [name]Rhys[/name] [name]Brown[/name]. While some people are using [name]Rhys[/name] for a girl, the majority of the time I’ve seen it on boys. It’s a great name.
From your lists, I like [name]Rhys[/name] and [name]Aaron[/name] for [name]Kyan[/name]'s brother. [name]Rollo[/name]'s suggestion of [name]Ronan[/name] [name]Alexander[/name] is wonderful too! Here are some suggestions.
[name]Kyan[/name] and [name]Rhys[/name] is definitely my favourite from the names you have listed, [name]Rhys[/name] [name]Tate[/name] [name]Brown[/name] doesn’t work though. [name]Rhys[/name] [name]Ashton[/name] [name]Brown[/name] would be very handsome.
[name]Luca[/name] - It’s alright.
[name]Declan[/name] - [name]Love[/name].
[name]Rhys[/name] - [name]LOVE[/name].
[name]Caelen[/name] - Not a fan.
[name]Ashton[/name] - Eh.
[name]Austin[/name] - Cute, but a bit dated.
names my husband likes are:
[name]Corey[/name] - Eh. It’s dated now.
[name]Leon[/name] - Like.
[name]Lee[/name] - Cute!
[name]Kobe[/name] - I like it if spelled [name]Colby[/name].
[name]Aaron[/name] - Cute.
Thanks for your suggestions everyone. There are some very good ideas there. I’ll put them to the other half and try my luck. This would be sooo much easier if I could just make the decision myself for some reason hubby won’t go for that
I really like [name]Tate[/name]. I also like [name]Rhys[/name], especially with big brother [name]Kyan[/name]. If you do figure out a way to convince your hubby to let you decide on your own, do let us know how you managed it!
Haha, will do aussiesteph. It’s sure going to take some convincing. [name]Tate[/name] is [name]Kyan[/name]'s fav name too, maybe i’ll get him to work on him
for some reason hubby won’t go for that
