Hi All. [name_m]Just[/name_m] looking for some fresh suggestions for another boy’s name. Our style is pretty traditional, we’re looking for something easy to say and spell, and something that will grow well with him as he gets older.
We’re looking to avoid names beginning with E and N due to current family names already.
What about …
[name_u]Ashton[/name_u]
[name_m]Bartholomew[/name_m]
[name_u]Christian[/name_u]
[name_m]Donovan[/name_m]
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m]

[name_m]Kenneth[/name_m]
[name_m]Lewis[/name_m]
[name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_m]Saul[/name_m]
[name_m]Vincent[/name_m]

August is an interesting suggestion. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you think it would be silly to have that name if the birth month wasn’t [name_u]August[/name_u]? Kind of like naming your daughter [name_f]Summer[/name_f] if she’s born in [name_u]December[/name_u]?
I don’t think it would be silly at all. [name_u]August[/name_u] is an established enough name that I wouldn’t assume it reflects its wearer’s birth month. Honestly, it wouldn’t even cross my mind.
In 2019, there were over 2300 Augusts born in the US, and I would bet a significant portion of them were not born in [name_u]August[/name_u]. Anecdotally, I also have a great-great-grandfather who was named [name_u]August[/name_u]; he was born in [name_u]June[/name_u].
I think it’s also worth noting that [name_u]August[/name_u]’s (or [name_m]Augustus[/name_m]’s) use as a given name predates its use as the name of a month.
