Hey, Berries!
As some of you may know, Iām having an extremely difficult time with my boy names right now. Iāve been pouring through the Nameberry database and every boy name list I can find, but nothing is sticking. Nothing feels right.
Right now, I for sure love three names/combos:
[name_m]Shepherd[/name_m] [name_u]Pax[/name_u], [name_u]Bravery[/name_u] [name_u]Noah[/name_u], and [name_u]Wilder[/name_u] [name_m]Caspian[/name_m].
They seem to combine everything Iāve historically loved in a boy name, even though Iām not sure if my style has evolved from that. Theyāre words that sounds like names, theyāre literary, have subtle [name_u]Christian[/name_u] influences, and are fairly balanced in terms of usability (although I think many would disagree with me on the usability of [name_u]Bravery[/name_u] in particular).
[name_f]My[/name_f] other boy names donāt feel at all sparkly or beautiful or like my sons. Not even [name_u]Asher[/name_u] [name_f]Beloved[/name_f], [name_u]Haven[/name_u] [name_m]Isaiah[/name_m], [name_m]Prosper[/name_m] [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], or [name_m]Ransom[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m].
As Iāve been searching for new names to love, Iāve found myself wanting to be drawn to more vintage-inspired boy names, ones that would feel more balanced next to sisters called [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f], [name_f]Cornelia[/name_f], and [name_f]Ada[/name_f]. However, Iāve been more inclined to like [name_u]Rowan[/name_u], [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u], [name_f]Remedy[/name_f], [name_u]Lennox[/name_u], [name_m]Knox[/name_m], and [name_m]Finnick[/name_m], although those donāt exactly feel right, either.
What Iād love is for some brand-new name suggestions. Totally new names that feel seawillowy without being names that I feel like I should adore, like [name_u]Drummer[/name_u], [name_u]Noble[/name_u], [name_m]Simeon[/name_m], [name_u]Levi[/name_u], [name_m]Obadiah[/name_m], etc.
This may very well be an impossible task, but if you have any ideas that you feel make sense with [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m], [name_u]Bravery[/name_u], and [name_u]Wilder[/name_u], while bridging the gap between names like [name_m]Peter[/name_m] and [name_f]Shine[/name_f], Iād be ever so grateful. And if you have any reasoning at all, Iād love to hear it!
Thanks, everyone!
