Welcoming 4th boy soon

Boy Names

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] Nameberries

We’re welcoming our 4th boy next week and need name advice. I prefer traditional names that are uncommon but strong. Our boys are [name_m]Leo[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m], [name_m]Silas[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Nolan[/name_m]. Sweet [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] died shortly after birth. We will be welcoming our 4th son and are hoping for input on our list. Our last name starts with an E and has a strong ‘s’ sound in it so names like [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] and [name_m]Isaiah[/name_m] are too rhyming. After losing [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] we tried for another baby for several years before getting pregnant. After easy pregnancies this one has been difficult and high risk with bedrest. Very stressful! I’d like a name that reflects the story - strength, a gift, light!

[name_m]John[/name_m] is not the most exciting name but is a family name Here s our list so far:

[name_m]Samson[/name_m] [name_m]Leif[/name_m]
[name_m]Samson[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m]
[name_m]Samson[/name_m] [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m]
[name_m]Samson[/name_m] [name_m]Lucas[/name_m]

[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]Lucien[/name_m]
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]Samson[/name_m]
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]Leif[/name_m]
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m]

[name_m]Lucien[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m]
[name_m]Lucien[/name_m] [name_m]Saul[/name_m]
[name_m]Lucien[/name_m] [name_m]Solomon[/name_m]
[name_m]Lucien[/name_m] [name_m]Magnus[/name_m]

Congrats on your soon to arrive 4th son and sorry for your loss. I can understand the importance of finding a name to reflect the importance and magnitude of this little one…

[name_m]Lucien[/name_m] [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] really stands out to me, and I love the meanings - greatest light. [name_u]Love[/name_u] this combo, which easily gets my vote.

[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]Leif[/name_m] or [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m] are also lovely.

[name_m]Samson[/name_m] will ultimately get shortened to [name_u]Sam[/name_u] which doesn’t have the same depth or appeal as your other kids names imo.

Some other names with great meanining:
[name_m]Bennett[/name_m] - blessed
[name_m]David[/name_m] - beloved
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] - gift of God
[name_m]Conrad[/name_m] - brave

I am so sorry to hear about baby [name_m]Atticus[/name_m]. Having this baby after suck a difficult pregnancy must be so exciting!! I really like [name_m]Samson[/name_m] it just seems so strong to me. All the middle names are good

I’m so sorry for your loss.

[name_m]Samson[/name_m] is a huge favourite of mine, so I have to put a vote in for that: [name_m]Samson[/name_m] [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] really stands out to me.

And I totally agree that [name_m]Lucien[/name_m] [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] really leaps out as well because of the meaning (plus it’s a gorgeous name!)

Wishing you all the very best.

I like [name_m]Samson[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m] best as a match for your other boys. But all of these names are great. I wish you and your family blessings going forward.

I’m sorry for your loss.

[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m] and [name_m]Lucien[/name_m] [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] get my vote

I really like [name_m]Samson[/name_m] [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m].

You mentioned in your blurb that this baby is a gift to you. [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] means gift of Jehovah. That way you can honor the fact this baby is a gift and honor [name_m]John[/name_m]. [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] would be a sweet name for your baby boy.

I’m so very sorry for your loss. And congratulations on your 4th son. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] all goes well.

My favorite name from your list by far is [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m]. I think of the angel [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m].

I personally would avoid [name_m]Samson[/name_m], as then [name_m]Leo[/name_m] would be the odd one out, not having an S name.

Best of luck to you and your family!

Thank you! [name_m]Bennett[/name_m] is a great option.

[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] sounds best to me. I love the names of your three sons, and I am sorry to hear of your loss.

[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m]

13

Thank you. Agreed - [name_m]Samson[/name_m] is such a strong name!

14

So sorry to hear of your loss but congratulations on your new baby boy.

I love all of your boys’ names so much. I think that [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m] would be lovely with them. I also like the suggestion of [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] from someone above.

15

Thank you! Still so undecided but I love these two combos too!

16

I’m so sorry for your loss. I like [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m].

I like the name best, but also if you used [name_m]Samson[/name_m] or [name_m]Lucien[/name_m] you would be repeating a first initial with one of your existing boys’ names ([name_m]Leo[/name_m], [name_m]Silas[/name_m].)

Best of luck with your decision and everything else.
