I have 3 boys already, expecting #4. I’ve appreciated your help before, but I need some new names my husband and I can agree on. This decision has been worrying me, even though I know I still have a couple of months. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any more suggestions or thoughts on my updated list?
Current sons: [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m], [name_m]Colin[/name_m] [name_u]Douglas[/name_u], and [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
Last name: Starts with R and rhymes with Tool.
We’d like the middle name to be [name_u]Blake[/name_u]
[name_f]My[/name_f] favorites in alphabetical order:
[name_u]Alden[/name_u]
[name_m]Eli[/name_m] (Maybe [name_m]Elijah[/name_m]? Is there another longer name for this nn?)
[name_m]Eugene[/name_m] nn [name_u]Gene[/name_u]
[name_m]Garrett[/name_m]
[name_m]Grant[/name_m]
[name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_m]Levi[/name_m]
[name_u]Micah[/name_u]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u]
Hubby’s current favorite is [name_m]Trent[/name_m]
I love [name_m]Eli[/name_m] and would suggest [name_u]Elias[/name_u] as a longer name if you want to use [name_m]Eli[/name_m] as a nickname, but I think [name_m]Eli[/name_m] stands well on it’s own. I also like [name_m]Leo[/name_m], [name_m]Levi[/name_m], and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]/[name_u]Theo[/name_u]. I think [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]/[name_u]Theo[/name_u] would work the best with your other son’s names, but all your choices work well.
It seems like there is a bit of a consensus on which names are generally liked. Question about [name_m]Grant[/name_m] – this would make the baby’s name 3 1-syllable names. Is that a dealbreaker?
I would definitely for for [name_m]Leo[/name_m], [name_m]Eli[/name_m], or [name_m]Levi[/name_m]. [name_m]Levi[/name_m] is probably my first choice. All of your choices are great though! I don’t care for [name_m]Trent[/name_m] but the rest are good.
I love [name_m]Grant[/name_m] in your sibset, but I don’t like [name_m]Grant[/name_m] [name_u]Blake[/name_u] (T)ool. Too abrupt. I vote [name_m]Levi[/name_m] or [name_m]Theodore[/name_m].
[name_m]Eli[/name_m], [name_u]Micah[/name_u], and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]. [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] is my favorite with your son’s names. [name_u]Love[/name_u] the nickname [name_u]Theo[/name_u] right now.
