Shy

I’m a fan of the show The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. On the show, there is a character named [name_m]Shy[/name_m] [name_u]Baldwin[/name_u]. I think [name_m]Shy[/name_m] sounds so cute for a boy. I know it can also be [name_u]Shai[/name_u].

What middle names do you think flow well with it?

shy and shai are cool! i would probably use a long form like shiloh, though ~

middles for shy/shai:

thomas
matthew
river
hendrix
augustine
graham
maven
hayes

I once knew a girl named Shyler, which I think could work great for a boy as well. Shyler nn [name_m]Shy[/name_m]

I like the sound of [name_m]Shy[/name_m], but the association to the word may be too much for me to use it for a real person. Maybe spelling it differently might help.

Also, the TV show character’s actual name is [name_m]Dwayne[/name_m], and [name_m]Shy[/name_m] is his stage name.

[name_u]Shai[/name_u] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_u]Shai[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]

[name_u]Shai[/name_u] [name_m]Dashiell[/name_m]
[name_u]Shai[/name_u] [name_u]Oliver[/name_u]

i second @hannahwren ‘s suggestion of [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u] nn [name_m]Shy[/name_m]! love that name
not a big fan of [name_m]Shy[/name_m] as a name, it’s too associated with the word. I do like [name_u]Shai[/name_u] tho!

[name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]
[name_u]Forest[/name_u]

I’m not a fan of [name_m]Shy[/name_m] as a full name because of the association with the word, but [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u] or Shiran/Shirin would be cool full names!

I can’t imagine introducing myself as “hi, I’m shy” so not a fan of it as a legal first name. [name_u]Or[/name_u] [name_u]Shai[/name_u] since it still has the same pronunciation. Really like [name_u]Shiloh[/name_u] though!

Seconding previous suggestion of [name_u]Shai[/name_u] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m].
