Boy Names
1

Hello,

[name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I can’t seem to agree on boy names. I tend to like old-fashioned names, and ones that are slightly outdoorsy but still refined. Some I like are:

[name_m]Clement[/name_m]
[name_m]Anselm[/name_m]
[name_m]Thatcher[/name_m]
[name_m]Amias[/name_m]
[name_u]Rhodes[/name_u]
[name_u]Remy[/name_u]

[name_f]My[/name_f] husband isn’t a fan of these names… he prefers names that have a sort of hero-esque component, and he likes z’s and other strong letters. He’s liked:

[name_m]Balthazar[/name_m]
[name_u]Griffin[/name_u]
[name_m]Ambrose[/name_m]
[name_m]Xavier[/name_m]
[name_m]Soren[/name_m]

[name_m]Can[/name_m] you think of any names that suit both styles, that are outside the top 500? The only ones we’ve been able to agree on are:

[name_u]August[/name_u]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u]

…but I dislike how trendy/unsurprising these names are.

We have literally NO problem with girls names…some names we’ve agreed on are:

[name_f]Harriet[/name_f]
[name_f]Blythe[/name_f]
[name_f]Gloria[/name_f]
[name_f]Astrid[/name_f]
[name_f]Lilith[/name_f]

Would love some suggestions! Outside the US top 500, please.

[name_u]Amos[/name_u] and [name_m]Abraham[/name_m] might be a good mixture of what you have on your list

If you like [name_m]Clement[/name_m] and he like a hero name maybe [name_f]Clemency[/name_f] would be a good compromise?

[name_m]Thatcher[/name_m] is similar to [name_m]Fletcher[/name_m] and still has that outdoors feel. [name_m]Fisher[/name_m] / [name_u]Forest[/name_u] may also be up your alley !

[name_u]Griffin[/name_u] is on his list but I think [name_m]Gideon[/name_m] is also so well suited as a compromise

Other names you might like
[name_m]Harvey[/name_m]
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m]
[name_m]Reginald[/name_m]
[name_u]Howard[/name_u]
[name_u]Basil[/name_u]
