I posted the other day and wanted to thank everyone who helped. I actually delivered a sweet little 8.8lb boy on 7/6. I was fearful not deciding on a name prior but am soooooo glad we didn’t. He was not what I pictured. (Which through almost all our names out the door) my last one looked like a little man and needed a strong masculine name but this one is the opposite. I feel like he needs a “softer” name. (Middle name is [name_m]Daniel[/name_m], trying to shy away from names ending in “n” sound if we can, want shorter names if possible)
Names that were too masculine/harsh:
[name_u]Spencer[/name_u]
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u]
[name_u]Theo[/name_u]
[name_m]Brock[/name_m]
[name_u]Dean[/name_u]
[name_m]Keith[/name_m]
[name_m]Ryder[/name_m]
[name_m]Ryker[/name_m]
[name_m]Vincent[/name_m]
Names we like as “softer” names:
[name_m]Joel[/name_m]
[name_m]Luke[/name_m]
[name_u]Rhys[/name_u]
[name_m]Meyer[/name_m]
[name_m]Simon[/name_m]
[name_m]Aaron[/name_m]
[name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_u]Drew[/name_u]
[name_u]Finn[/name_u]
“Soft” names he vetoed:
[name_u]Jude[/name_u]
[name_m]Adam[/name_m]
[name_m]Bodhi[/name_m]
[name_m]Graham[/name_m]
[name_m]Heath[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u]
[name_m]Soren[/name_m]
Thank you again. I hate to keep asking, but you guys help me so much. Thank you over and over again.
Congratulations!
I like [name_m]Luke[/name_m] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m] best! Too bad he vetoed [name_m]Graham[/name_m], that sounds like the ultimate “soft”/ “good guy” name

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] that helps- congratulations!
Congratulations!!!
I find [name_m]Keith[/name_m] very soft sounding… maybe it’s my accent? I also love [name_m]Heath[/name_m], but that’s out. From your list I love [name_m]Simon[/name_m], [name_u]Finn[/name_u] & [name_u]Max[/name_u], but first two end in -n, and [name_u]Max[/name_u] sounds kind of masculine strong… [name_m]Joel[/name_m] is perfect, but [name_m]Joel[/name_m] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m] repeats the -el ending, which is not that perfect… [name_m]Luke[/name_m] and [name_m]Aaron[/name_m] are also very pretty names, especially [name_m]Luke[/name_m] creates the picture of a soft guy… I agree with the portrait of [name_m]Graham[/name_m] being a ‘good guy’ as well and really like the suggestion of [name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m] as a combination of soft names [name_m]Beau[/name_m] also sounds nice. Good luck with naming your newest family addition!
Congrats on your new son!
I like the idea of [name_m]Luke[/name_m] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m].
Also,
[name_m]Anthony[/name_m] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m]

Best of luck!
Congratulations! [name_f]My[/name_f] favourite from your softer list is [name_u]Finn[/name_u], I think it is such a handsome name and sounds lovely with [name_m]Daniel[/name_m].
I love [name_m]Luke[/name_m], [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] and [name_u]Drew[/name_u]!

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there, congrats on your boy! One name that I’ve had a crush on is the (I believe Irish?) name [name_u]Shea[/name_u] for a boy (prn [name_u]Shay[/name_u]). About as soft and friendly/happy as it gets!
[name_f]My[/name_f] favorites from the approved soft list are [name_m]Simon[/name_m] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m], [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m], and [name_u]Max[/name_u] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m]. [name_m]Graham[/name_m] fits the bill perfectly, but sadly your DH didn’t agree.

Congratulations! I think that [name_m]Simon[/name_m] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m] would be lovely. I think that [name_m]Simon[/name_m]'s meaning suggests peacefulness, tranquility, and thoughtfulness, as well as intelligence.
