We are expecting baby boy #2 ! Our first son is called [name_m]Travis[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] nn TJ. We have loved his name since the beginning. Not unusual but not too popular… so we need another boy name to go with it. Our favorites are;
[name_m]Reuben[/name_m]
[name_m]Connor[/name_m]
[name_u]Blake[/name_u]
[name_m]Zachary[/name_m] nn [name_m]Zac[/name_m], [name_m]Zack[/name_m] or [name_m]Zach[/name_m]
Babies mn will be [name_m]Alexander[/name_m], which is a family name. Please suggest all you can!
[name_m]Travis[/name_m] and [name_u]Evan[/name_u]
[name_m]Travis[/name_m] and [name_u]Ryan[/name_u]
[name_m]Travis[/name_m] and [name_u]Tristan[/name_u]
[name_m]Travis[/name_m] and [name_m]Donovan[/name_m]
[name_m]Travis[/name_m] and [name_m]Vincent[/name_m]
[name_m]Travis[/name_m] and [name_m]Collin[/name_m]
[name_m]Travis[/name_m] and [name_m]Dashiell[/name_m]
[name_m]Travis[/name_m] and [name_u]Spencer[/name_u]
[name_m]Connor[/name_m] and [name_u]Blake[/name_u] both go very well with [name_m]Travis[/name_m]. [name_u]Blake[/name_u] sounds the best with [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]. So [name_u]Blake[/name_u] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] gets my vote. Would you consider using a short form of [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] as a first instead? [name_m]Xander[/name_m]/[name_m]Zander[/name_m] would go well with [name_m]Travis[/name_m] too.
I have a [name_m]Travis[/name_m]!!! Isn’t it just so handsome?! My [name_m]Travis[/name_m] is almost three. [name_m]How[/name_m] old is yours?
We also used family middles for both of our boys. [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] is a beautiful middle name. It will go with nearly anything you choose. I will post later with suggestions. For now, a critique:
[name_m]Reuben[/name_m]- I’ve always had a soft spot for it. Wonderful meaning, too. Plus “[name_m]Rube[/name_m]” is a pretty cool nn. [name_m]Ben[/name_m] would be a classical, gentle nn.
[name_m]Connor[/name_m]- Not my style. Sounds too “soft” for me, next to rugged [name_m]Travis[/name_m]. But lots of people love this name, I know.
[name_u]Blake[/name_u]- [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] with [name_m]Travis[/name_m]. I have [name_u]Blaise[/name_u] on my list, since names with K in the middle don’t work well with our last name.
[name_m]Zachary[/name_m] nn [name_m]Zac[/name_m], [name_m]Zack[/name_m] or [name_m]Zach[/name_m]- Has been on our list since I was pregnant with [name_m]Travis[/name_m]. It made it to our top 5 or something. We finally decided it just didn’t feel “special” enough to us. (Totally subjective, I know. I suppose it’s because it’s very common where we live. It’s a little too high on the popularity lists for us.) I still like it, though, in all of its many forms. Very dignified without being stuffy in the least. I always think of President [name_m]Zachary[/name_m] [name_u]Taylor[/name_u]. Gorgeous meaning, too.
I love [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] and [name_m]Connor[/name_m]. [name_u]Blake[/name_u] is fine; [name_m]Zachary[/name_m] seems a little dated. Other ideas if you need them:
[name_u]Gus[/name_u]
[name_m]Wyatt[/name_m]
[name_m]Isaiah[/name_m]
[name_u]Rex[/name_u]
[name_m]Zeke[/name_m]
Isn’t it just so handsome?! My [name_m]Travis[/name_m] is almost three. [name_m]How[/name_m] old is yours?
