My SO and I have gone over our list of names for our first child, a boy, few times since I posted it last and we’ve managed to narrow it down a bit and I was hoping that you guys would suggest some combos to help us move forward. I was so impressed with the thoughtful suggestions last time! We have even added a few possibilities to the middle name list and I can’t wait to see what you guys think will work best for the baby’s name.
Middles:
[name]River[/name]
[name]Noble[/name]
[name]Oak[/name]
[name]Hawk[/name]
[name]Sage[/name]
[name]Winter[/name]
Coyote
[name]Canyon[/name]
Names from the “Firsts” list are also eligible for the middle spot.
Thoughts, opinions, favorites, combos, and suggestions are all welcome!! Thanks, Berries!
I have decided to keep [name]Tobias[/name] on my list despite the “ends in s” issue because my SO’s name does the same thing and we both really love the name [name]Tobias[/name]. I appreciate the opinions and feedback though!
[name]Griffin[/name], [name]Lionel[/name], [name]Abram[/name] and [name]Bruno[/name] are very cool choices; and I looove [name]Noble[/name] in the middle! [name]Abram[/name] [name]Noble[/name] would be brilliant, or [name]Griffin[/name] [name]Lionel[/name].
[name]Bruno[/name] [name]Abram[/name]* (personally I would avoid any mn with bear or wolf associations with this fn)
[name]Xavier[/name] [name]Sage[/name]
[name]Griffin[/name] [name]Tobias[/name] or [name]Griffin[/name] [name]Wyatt[/name] (personally avoiding noun/adjective mn)
[name]Tobias[/name] [name]Winter[/name] or [name]Tobias[/name] [name]Noble[/name]
[name]Abram[/name] [name]River[/name] or [name]Abram[/name] [name]Xavier[/name]*
[name]Wyatt[/name] [name]Noble[/name]* or [name]Wyatt[/name] [name]Canyon[/name]
[name]Lionel[/name] [name]Abram[/name]* or [name]Lionel[/name] [name]Tobias[/name]
I starred my favorites by their sound/association.
Because your last name has a bit of… chewiness to it, I prefer it with first names that roll off the tongue easily:
[name]Griffin[/name], [name]Lionel[/name], [name]Bruno[/name].
It sounds like your attached to [name]Tobias[/name] though. I think [name]Tobias[/name], with the nickname [name]Toby[/name], is one of those perfect names. [name]Tobias[/name] is serious and sturdy, [name]Toby[/name] is so so friendly.
[name]Tobias[/name] Coyote ("[name]Toby[/name] Coyote") would be amazingly eccentric, but only if you live out [name]West[/name] and drive a VW bus.
[name]Tobias[/name] [name]Oak[/name]
[name]Tobias[/name] [name]Canyon[/name]
[name]Tobias[/name] [name]Bruno[/name] ("[name]Toby[/name] B.")
seconding Brigid16’s suggestion of [name]Griffin[/name] [name]Oak[/name]. [name]Lovely[/name]. And Kyemsma’s [name]Griffin[/name] [name]Xavier[/name].
[name]Lionel[/name] [name]Canyon[/name]
[name]Lionel[/name] [name]Bruno[/name]
[name]Lionel[/name] [name]Winter[/name] (oh no that sounds like “The [name]Lion[/name] in [name]Winter[/name]”)
Mm I like [name]Mischa[/name]'s idea of [name]Tobias[/name] [name]Noble[/name]. It’s got two nickname options: [name]Toby[/name] and [name]Snow[/name] (tobiaS [name]NOble[/name]!) A nature-name hidden within a very handsome, dignified full name.
I wrote out all of the suggested combos and I have a list of 41 awesome possibilities! I love so many of them. It’s going to be next to impossible to narrow them down. I don’t know how I am going to choose just one! Thanks for all the feedback, Berries.
I might not get the chance to use [name]Griffin[/name]. My sister is pregnant, too, and due ahead of me. [name]Griffin[/name] is a family name and she let me know that she might use it in the middle. Names are first come first serve in my opinion and I don’t want any repeats. I’m not 100% sure she will actually use it and I am not 100% ready to take it off the lists either but once I subtract the [name]Griffin[/name] combos I still have 34 amazing name combos to consider. This thread has made me feel a lot better about this possible scenario so I want to throw out an extra big THANK YOU for that!
I like the suggestions of [name]Bruno[/name] [name]Abram[/name], [name]Abram[/name] [name]River[/name], and [name]Lional[/name] [name]Abram[/name] but I am a little concerned about the initials for those three (BAG, ARG, & LAG).
More combos, opinions, or votes for your personal favorites are welcome! This community is really great
