Sorry to keep picking your brains, but we’re still struggling with boys names. When it’s come down to it we’ve decided to go more conservative for our child, but still a bit weird/geeky/quirky - we don’t want to be too normal
I’d like to know peoples thoughts on [name_m]Lorcan[/name_m], Hoban and [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] please.
Other potential boys names are:
[name_m]Callen[/name_m] and Theoden.
Our girls names short list:
Brienne, [name_f]Persephone[/name_f], [name_f]Theia[/name_f] and Corellia.
I’m sure it’s bound to be a boy with the amount we’re struggling with names!
Eza D@rling has a nice ring to it. [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] is not a favorite of mine, but it sounds great with your l ast name.
[name_m]Lorcan[/name_m] I don’t care for. Hoban I don’t know how to pronounce.
My favorite is [name_m]Callan[/name_m](this spelling), Theoden, and [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] in that order.
I wonder if you might like [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m], [name_u]Leighton[/name_u], or [name_m]Hadrian[/name_m].
[name_u]Elias[/name_u]?
i love Brienne, [name_f]Persephone[/name_f], and [name_f]Theia[/name_f]!
I like [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] too. Hoban is just Ho-ban no fancy pronunciation.
All our name choices have some geeky reference to them; which I know many Berries don’t approve of.
I’m so happy with our girls list. I worry about sibsets too - personally I think [name_m]Callen[/name_m] doesn’t match any of our girl choices if we were to have a sibling.
Hoban: I see two things when it comes to this name. Hobo and Ho-ban like there’s a ban on prostitutes. I could be the only one though since I tend to see potential sexual references where some may not. Looking it up, there are some great positive associations with the name that I think add well to its use as a name.
[name_m]Lorcan[/name_m]: Handsome
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m]: Handsome
[name_m]Callen[/name_m]: I don’t love it as much as the others, but I still think it would work well.
Theoden: nice nn potential here; I like the full name a lot too though
I really like your girl names
Brienne: I like the nn [name_f]Bri[/name_f], so I love this one.
[name_f]Persephone[/name_f]: I love the goddess. I don’t know how wearable it would be as a first name, but if [name_m]Apollo[/name_m] is wearable [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] should be able to do it too.
[name_f]Theia[/name_f]: I really like it!
Corellia: great nn potential here; To be honest, I originally read [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]/[name_f]Cornelia[/name_f] and then had to back up and look again. Obviously, I’m not a huge [name_f]Star[/name_f] Wars fan since I had to look it up lol
I like Theoden with your girl names, except it might be too close to [name_f]Theia[/name_f] for some tastes.
