We tend to gravitate toward classic boy names. Please help me narrow down these options or feel free to throw out other suggestions. Thanks!
- [name]Brendan[/name]
- [name]Collin[/name]
- [name]Ryan[/name]
- [name]Sean[/name]
I love [name]Brendan[/name], it’s so handsome and ages well. I really like [name]Sean[/name] as well but not as much.
I like all four names. My favorite would be [name]Brendan[/name]. It seems fresh compared to all the Bradens/Braydons and etc that are running around.
[name]Collin[/name] is my favorite! I think of the little boy from The [name]Secret[/name] Garden, even though his name was spelled with on ‘l’. Having been born in the mid-eighties, I grew up with many [name]Brendan[/name]'s and [name]Ryan[/name]'s, so those names don’t feel as fresh to me. [name]Sean[/name] is not really my style.
[name]Brendan[/name] - I think this name, but just to warn you, I know a man who’s name is very close to [name]Brandon[/name] and he is constantly being called [name]Brandon[/name] and he hates it! I think it’s a little easier for girls to deal with small variations from classic names.
[name]Sean[/name] - very cute, I think this is a nice name that isn’t overused
I’m not very fond of the other 2, but they are classic core names and not bad at all.

I’m not a fan of [name]Brandon[/name], [name]Braden[/name], type names as they feel dated to me and sort of feel lower class, sorry. And I agree with [name]Kai[/name] in that people will probably mispronounce [name]Brendon[/name] enough to drive you and your son crazy.
[name]Colin[/name] is my pick. It’s cute, timeless and will age quite nicely. I like [name]Sean[/name] too but [name]Colin[/name] is just so cute. I love [name]Ryan[/name] and had it on my own list but I often wonder if it is too 80’s? [name]One[/name] gal here says it is as she was born in the 80’s…so maybe it is? I still have a fondness for the name.
[name]Colin[/name] or [name]Ryan[/name]. I also love [name]Owen[/name]!
My favorite is [name]Ryan[/name]! [name]Love[/name] the meaning. Some others you might like… [name]Connor[/name], [name]Aidan[/name], [name]Declan[/name], [name]Riley[/name]?
I think [name]Collin[/name] is quite handsome. It’s my favorite from your list.
Also, what about [name]Connor[/name] or [name]Rowan[/name]?
I love [name]Collin[/name] most, [name]Ryan[/name] second. Bored to tears of the other two. Grew up with too many of them.
[name]Brendan[/name] is dated I think. I grew up with so many Brandons, Brennans, Brendons, Brandens, etc that it’s boring now. I don’t like [name]Ryan[/name] but it’s an ok choice a bit overused. [name]Collin[/name] is lovely. [name]Sean[/name] is also nice. Good luck!
I like [name]Ryan[/name].
Have you considered [name]Brennan[/name]?
