Currently TTC baby #3 and boy names have always been difficult for us. We have very different taste in boy names but have finally narrowed it down to three that we both like.
Which do you like better between [name_m]Philip[/name_m], [name_u]August[/name_u], and [name_u]Rhys[/name_u]?
Siblings are L30 and M@rg0t (please don’t type out their names in responses thanks!)
I like all of the options, but my favorite with siblings is [name_m]Philip[/name_m]. It has that similar classic feel to it, while being a little unexpected compared to other traditional names.
I worry that [name_m]Philip[/name_m] sounds too old man and pretentious? That’s my biggest hangup with it. But I do really like it.
I slightly prefer [name_u]August[/name_u] to [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] as well, mainly because I think [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] will get butchered and that is the only spelling I would consider for a boy.
I really like [name_m]Philip[/name_m] with your children’s names. It has the same classic feel. [name_u]August[/name_u] would work nicely too. I love [name_u]Rhys[/name_u], but it doesn’t feel as classic as your children’s names to me.
I like [name_m]Philip[/name_m] the best with the other two. [name_u]August[/name_u] is second, and [name_u]Rhys[/name_u], while nice, is a distant third for me.
[name_u]August[/name_u] pulls the whole subset together. I definetly like [name_u]August[/name_u] the best, [name_u]Rhys[/name_u] is very cool and works well with the set as well, but [name_u]August[/name_u] is still my top pick. [name_m]Phillip[/name_m] is also a very nice name, but I do not think [name_m]Phillip[/name_m] works with this set at all.
