I seem to always be drawn towards more vintagey or timeless boy names that have a soft but tough feel to them. I really want to build up my name list and always struggle with boy names. I feel that girls names are so vast and creative, but I always notice that boy names are either too modern for my taste (Bohdi, [name_u]Callum[/name_u], etc.) or relatively over used ([name_m]Henry[/name_m], [name_u]Oliver[/name_u], [name_u]Jackson[/name_u], etc.).
SO! I’m on the hunt for names that hit that sweet spot that produce that cheff’s kiss reaction and the kind that makes you protective over it even though it’s just a name lol.
Some examples than have stayed on my list for awhile:
[name_m]Anson[/name_m] (honor name, but still fits my style)
[name_u]Linden[/name_u]
[name_m]Heath[/name_m]
[name_m]Osmond[/name_m]
[name_m]Oswald[/name_m]
[name_u]Robin[/name_u]
[name_m]Linus[/name_m]
[name_m]Edwin[/name_m]
I’d love to hear any of your suggestions or even just your thoughts on the current name list. TIA <3
I really like [name_u]Linden[/name_u], [name_m]Heath[/name_m], [name_u]Robin[/name_u], [name_m]Linus[/name_m], and [name_m]Edwin[/name_m] from your current list!
I love [name_m]Solomon[/name_m] as well its so soft but strong! I also love [name_u]Basil[/name_u] I don’t know if I could swing it past my DH but it’s so cute and an alternative to [name_u]Sage[/name_u]. Thank you!
Some boys names I love which are soft but tough are
[name_u]Elias[/name_u]
[name_m]Cedric[/name_m]
[name_m]Dominic[/name_m]
[name_u]Beckett[/name_u]
[name_m]Benedict[/name_m]
[name_m]Bennet[/name_m]
[name_u]Everett[/name_u]
[name_u]Gabriel[/name_u]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u]
[name_m]Julius[/name_m]
[name_u]Lawrence[/name_u]
This is my style exactly! I really love your choice on names, I think they’re adorable and they still have a warming vintage feel.
