Boy Names
1

Hello berries! I’m 25 weeks preggo with our first little bundle of joy. Hubby has decided that we will both choose 3 names for each gender and then discuss from there. I’d like your help in finding 3 spectacular names. :slight_smile:

Our last name sounds like [name]March[/name], but starts with a B. And middle name for a boy will be [name]August[/name] (family name).

[name]Do[/name] you have any suggestions or opinions? I’d like to steer clear of top 100 names…

Here’s my current list:
[name]Milo[/name]
[name]Graham[/name]
[name]Rory[/name] (wondering if this needs a full name or can stand on its own)
[name]Rowan[/name]
[name]Felix[/name] (hubby is not a fan)
[name]Jonah[/name]

Thank you!

[name]Ronan[/name] (as an alternative to [name]Rowan[/name] which is unisex)
[name]Jasper[/name]
[name]Hugo[/name]
[name]Viggo[/name]
[name]Vincent[/name]
[name]Nathaniel[/name]
[name]Xavier[/name]

(since I like a lot of the ones on your list, just thought I’d throw out a few more of my favorites)

I like [name]Graham[/name], [name]Milo[/name] and [name]Rowan[/name] best from your list. They all sound amazing with middle name [name]August[/name] (which I love!).
[name]Felix[/name] is great too, but if your husband doesn’t like it, then you’re sort of wasting one of your three choices!

My fears for [name]Rowan[/name] and [name]Graham[/name] are the same as what you have pointed out…darn. I think that [name]Graham[/name], [name]Rory[/name], and [name]Milo[/name] are my favorites. Hubby also isn’t sure if he can get past [name]Milo[/name] and [name]Otis[/name]… makes me sad.

I love [name]Maxwell[/name], but my parents’ dog is [name]Max[/name]…kinda puts the kibosh on that one. :wink:

I’m also liking:
[name]Thatcher[/name]
[name]Wesley[/name]
[name]Callum[/name]
[name]Everett[/name] ( though I’m not sure I see it on my baby. …if you know what I mean)

My favorite from your list is Graham August. It’s a wonderful combo and sounds great with your last name. Others that I like and would suggest

Nathaniel August
Henry August
Joseph August
William August
Edward August

[name]Milo[/name] - I like [name]Milo[/name] but just makes me think of Tweenies. - Personally I like [name]Miles[/name] and have [name]Milo[/name] as a NN.
[name]Graham[/name] - It’s nice personally i’m not a fan of older names but if you like it go for it.
[name]Rory[/name] - I like this It’s ok on it’s own I like Roary (After Roary the racing car).
[name]Rowan[/name] - I’v only ever known this as a girls name sorry.
[name]Felix[/name] - I’m not a fan of this either, reminds me of the [name]Cat[/name] off that advert.
[name]Jonah[/name] - I like this one [name]Jonah[/name] [name]August[/name] B sounds nice if your ok with initals spelling JAB.

My Suggestions:-
[name]Seth[/name] [name]August[/name] B
[name]Maximilian[/name]/[name]Maxwell[/name] [name]August[/name] B - [name]Max[/name].
