I am having a really hard time trying to find a boys name that doesn’t ‘outshine’ our son’s name [name]Jack[/name] or isn’t too long in comparison.
For example, we love the name [name]Braxton[/name] but its a bit showy compared to [name]Jack[/name] and even a bit too long.
Our last name is slightly longer (8 letters) so we would like to have a short name again if possible.
We’d love a name that is strong like [name]Jack[/name] but not as common.
My thoughts so far are:
[name]Rhys[/name]
[name]Beau[/name]
[name]Brodie[/name]
[name]Nate[/name]
[name]Flynn[/name]
[name]Finn[/name]
I would love to hear your thoughts and definitely encourage more suggestions!
Many thanks 
[name]Love[/name] [name]Flynn[/name], [name]Nate[/name] and Guys form your list. Think that sibset [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Flynn[/name] works best.
other suggestions:
[name]Miles[/name]
[name]Jude[/name]
[name]Ryan[/name]
[name]Cole[/name]
[name]Max[/name]
With [name]Jack[/name], I like [name]Rhys[/name], [name]Flynn[/name] and [name]Finn[/name].

I love [name]Jack[/name]! What a handsome name your son has. [name]Jack[/name] is my second favorite boys’ name, and [name]Brody[/name] is also on my short list, so I’m in huge favor of [name]Brodie[/name] from your list. I also really like [name]Rhys[/name] and [name]Flynn[/name]/[name]Finn[/name]! They’re really handsome.
I also love these with [name]Jack[/name]:
[name]Spencer[/name]
[name]Everett[/name]
[name]Linus[/name]
[name]Silas[/name]
[name]Patrick[/name]
[name]Jude[/name] (although [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Jude[/name] might be too similar?)
[name]Felix[/name]
[name]August[/name]
[name]Cole[/name]
[name]Lincoln[/name]
[name]Bennett[/name]
[name]Winston[/name]
[name]Asher[/name]/[name]Ash[/name]/[name]Ashton[/name]
[name]Grayson[/name]/[name]Gray[/name]/Grayer
[name]Holden[/name]
[name]Thomas[/name]
[name]Charles[/name] (nn [name]Charlie[/name]?)
[name]Henry[/name]
[name]Caleb[/name]
Good luck!
The name [name]Benjamin[/name] came to my mind…[name]Jack[/name] & [name]Ben[/name]…I think both names are classic & lovely.
Some others:
- [name]Luke[/name]
- [name]Michael[/name] ([name]Mick[/name], [name]Mikey[/name])
- [name]Peter[/name] ([name]Pete[/name])
- [name]Wyatt[/name]
- [name]Oliver[/name]
- [name]Finn[/name] (as you originally were thinking about as well?)
- [name]Levi[/name]
- [name]Chase[/name]
- [name]Liam[/name]
- [name]Leo[/name]
I also really like the pp’s suggestion of [name]Jack[/name] & [name]Harry[/name]!
[name]Flynn[/name] or [name]Finn[/name] are great!
I too am all about [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Brodie[/name] (though I think [name]Brody[/name] looks cleaner), [name]Rhys[/name], [name]Flynn[/name] (or [name]Finn[/name], but I like [name]Flynn[/name] a little better with [name]Jack[/name])! Where [name]Jack[/name] stands on its own just fine, I don’t really care for [name]Beau[/name] or [name]Nate[/name] as full names; I would suggest [name]Bowen[/name] or [name]Nathan[/name], neither of which are too long or outshine [name]Jack[/name] in the least.
I also think [name]Jack[/name] would work well with a [name]Sawyer[/name], [name]Hayes[/name], [name]Reid[/name], [name]Evan[/name], [name]Colin[/name] or [name]Cole[/name], or [name]Wade[/name].
