I find boy names very, very difficult. I just find it hard to love a name 100%, always have. I only have ONE boy name I love which is [name_m]Blue[/name_m]. [name_f][/name_f]I like names that i associate with something I love, whether itās a movie, thing, place and [name_m]Blue[/name_m] is my favourite colour and reminds me of the sky. It also ranks outside the top 1000 where I live and I just really like it. [name_f][/name_f]But I would like backup options bc idk if Iāll have more than one boy in the future or if my future partner will even like it. I also canāt use it with my favourite girl name as theyāre too similar. I like āsmallā names typicallyā¦.I think but honestly I have no idea what my naming style is.
[name_f][/name_f]
For names Iād love outside the top 1000 uk or at the lower end. Also Have a nickname.
[name_f][/name_f]
So far i like but donāt love: [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Rain[/name_f]- [name_m]Reign[/name_m] has become super popular and I hear it everywhere where I live which has slightly put me off. But I love the weather and the nn [name_f]Rainy[/name_f].
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Rue[/name_f]- I want to like it more than I do. [name_f][/name_f] But I do love anything [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] the Pooh
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Levi[/name_m]- Already a name in my family, but if wasnāt would probably be up there with blue despite it being popular
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Teddy[/name_m]- [name_m]Way[/name_m] too popular and I donāt like [name_m]Ted[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_f]Shiloh[/name_f]- I prefer the nn [name_m]Shy[/name_m] for a girl, itās fine just no wow factor. I love of soft it is though
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Sully[/name_m]- A new current fave. Not sure if itās too old man sounding for me. Also Iām a big nn person and itās not got any.
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Rome[/name_m]- I know tons of Romes, Romans, Romeoās. Iāve just completely fallen out of love. But I do like [name_f]Ro[/name_f] or [name_f]Romy[/name_f] as a nickname [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Eli[/name_m]- Again I just know too many. However it just rolls of the tongue [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Sky[/name_m]- Iām not sure how to feel [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Beau[/name_m]- Know a couple of boys and girls with this name [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Georgie[/name_f]- A new contender but I donāt like [name_m]George[/name_m]. [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Ari[/name_m]- Fine but doesnāt feel like my style [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Buddy[/name_m] -More of a guilty pleasure and Iām a huge [name_m]Christmas[/name_m] person. [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Cybi[/name_m] -Spelling would be hard for people and Iām not sure how Iād spell it phonetically [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Moon[/name_f]- A new favourite but not sure itāll stick around [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Chip[/name_m]- I prefer as a nn but isnāt it sweet [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Christopher[/name_m]- Quite long and very very popular where I live. Also have multiple family members with this name [name_f][/name_f]Thimble- Another guilty pleasure. But goodness what a sweet name and [name_m]Peter[/name_m] [name_m]Pan[/name_m] is a fave movie
You seem to have a hip, whimsical and nature style, part storybook Brit, part outdoorsy Americana, with some more or less on theme.
Think you should decide (not now but if you use these names) if you want a short name or a longer one with a short nickname.
Eg:
Christopher nn Chip (or Kit)
Benedict nn Buddy
Sullivan/ Solomon nn Sully
Ellis/ Elijah nn Eli
Arthur nn Ari
Rupert nn Ru
Or
A short name with a longer nickname
Eg:
Rome nn Romy
Cybi nn bear cub etc
I personally would cut Moon from the list (ripe for teasing - and a nasally sound). I like the word Thimble but Iād keep as a middle name as not great nickname options as a first and again might be teased (eg called Teeny). Would cut Georgie if not George.
Some other names you might like:
Jem
Boon
Laszlo /Lazlo
Jasper
Cosmo
Lumen
Mariner
Anders
Oisin
Marlowe
Indigo
Bramble nn Bram
Rafferty
Otto
Banjo
Lucien
Murphy
[name_m]Sully[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- I think these days, I feels quite fresh again! and you could consider [name_m]Sullivan[/name_m] āSullyā if you want to be able to use a nickname?
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Rome[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- handsome and gentle
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Buddy[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f]- Iāve met a [name_m]Buddy[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f] he wore it well
[name_m]Toby[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Bramble[/name_m] nn [name_m]Bram[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Sibley[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Sonny[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Indigo[/name_f] nn [name_m]Indy[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Cobalt[/name_m] nn [name_m]Coby[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Hopper[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]North[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f][name_f]Teal[/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]Hardwin nn [name_m]Hardy[/name_m] or [name_f]Winnie[/name_f] or [name_m]Winn[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Bly[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Elikai[/name_m] nn [name_m]Eli[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Gale[/name_m] [name_f][/name_f][name_m]Raiden[/name_m] (rye den, means thunder in Japanese)
I would argue [name_m]Sully[/name_m] is the nickname for [name_m]Sullivan[/name_m], so just use [name_m]Sullivan[/name_m] as the first name and nickname [name_m]Sully[/name_m].
[name_f][/name_f]
āNavyā seems like a good middle name option for a girl or even a boy, a subtle nod to your favourite colour [name_m]Blue[/name_m].
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Sky[/name_m] seems like either a standalone middle name option, perhaps with an e on the end for a girl (Skye) or as a nickname for Skylar/Skyler.
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Christopher[/name_m] being a prominent name in the family could give it pride of place as a middle honor name? Otherwise [name_m]Chip[/name_m] is also a nickname for [name_m]Charles[/name_m], or your future husbandās/baby daddyās name, as the saying [name_f][/name_f] āChip off the old blockā [name_f][/name_f]- give her first name of your baby daddy and nickname him [name_m]Chip[/name_m].
[name_f][/name_f]
[name_m]Ronan[/name_m] as a less common alternative to [name_m]Rome[/name_m], [name_m]Roman[/name_m], [name_m]Romeo[/name_m], Rowan.. still giving you the nickname [name_f]Ro[/name_f], otherwise pick a R first name and a O middle name and give him the nickname [name_f]Ro[/name_f].
I like your style. [name_m]Ari[/name_m] & [name_f]Shiloh[/name_f] are two my top swooning favorites names! (even though theyāre only on your like not love list. )
[name_f][/name_f]

I know a few of these are nick-name-less, and a few may be too popular for you (probably, Jude), but hope this helps.
Iām a fan of your naming style, even if you arenāt sure what it is! I love [name_m]Blue[/name_m], [name_f]Rue[/name_f], [name_m]Sully[/name_m], [name_m]Sky[/name_m], [name_f]Georgie[/name_f], and [name_m]Cybi[/name_m]!
