We need help choosing a name for our baby boy! We need something that works in both English and Turkish, or is at least easily pronounced in both. We don’t want any names associated with religion, and don’t want want any overused names (i.e deniz/dennis, emre/emery, eren/aaron). We like more modern and masculine sounding names. Our last name is 1 syllable, so I prefer it to be at least 2 so it doesnt sound too short. Please help!!
What about…
[name_m]Roman[/name_m]
[name_u]Evren[/name_u]
[name_u]Atlas[/name_u] (slightly different pronunciation, but not too much?)
[name_m]Aslan[/name_m]
[name_u]Leo[/name_u] (not a traditional one but I’ve heard it used!)
[name_m]Ender[/name_m]
[name_u]Ares[/name_u]
[name_u]Derin[/name_u]
[name_u]Luka[/name_u]
[name_u]Evan[/name_u]
[name_u]Evren[/name_u]
[name_m]Ayaz[/name_m]
[name_m]Ozan[/name_m]
[name_m]Ender[/name_m]
[name_m]Zeki[/name_m]
[name_m]Timur[/name_m]
[name_u]Love[/name_u] roman but unfortunately it means gypsy in Turkish
[name_u]Ares[/name_u] is nice- so it would be aries in english. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you think it sounds odd? Havent seen it used before
Some high profile celebrities used it recently so I was hoping it’s more usable now! My first association is “novel” but I can see why that would be a problem.
I think I’ve seen it on somebody else’s (Turkish) name list before. I believe Ares is used in English too, though it would be a slightly different pronunciation. It sounds similar to trendy names like Aras, Enes, etc. so why not.
Is there an [name_f]English[/name_f] equivalent of ayaz? Like that one
Hmm, not a direct one I can find but [name_u]Asa[/name_u] or [name_u]Ace[/name_u] came to mind. It also means frost so maybe [name_u]Frost[/name_u]
