What do we think of [name_u]Baker[/name_u] for a boy?

Maybe:

[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Bear[/name_u]

[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Dean[/name_u]

Thoughts on those?

Any other cute middles?

Iā€™m not a fan of it personally but I think it can be done although I think it is one of those that is last name dependent (if you last name is [name_m]Butcher[/name_m], for example, maybe donā€™t do [name_u]Baker[/name_u] Butcher" unless ā€œCandlestickmakerā€ is going to be your middle name :joy: )

[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Bear[/name_u] is good if you like the alliteration! I think I like [name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Dean[/name_u] more though.

Here are some shorter alliterative middle suggestions (your two are short so I am following suit!):

[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Bryce[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_m]Bruce[/name_m]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Beau[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Blaise[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Blake[/name_u]

Longer:
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_m]Bancroft[/name_m]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_m]Bainbridge[/name_m]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_m]Byron[/name_m]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_m]Bartholomew[/name_m]

[name_f]Non[/name_f]- Alliterative middles

[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Chase[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Chance[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Tate[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Leon[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]David[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_m]Gifford[/name_m]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Henry[/name_u]
[name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Tristan[/name_u]

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps :slight_smile:

Itā€™s not a very ā€˜nameyā€™ word to me. I definitely think butcher and candlestick maker :see_no_evil:

Makes me think of a baker who makes cakes etc.

5

I agree with some of the other comments. We still have bakers as an occupation, so it just makes me thing of someone baking cakes.

I personally love [name_u]Baker[/name_u] for a boy.

[name_u]Baker[/name_u] is so cute! Its a top contender for me right now. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband doesnā€™t love the [name_u]Baker[/name_u] Mayfield connection but Im just gonna wear him down :joy:

I think its a lot like [name_u]Hunter[/name_u] in vibe except more sweet and friendly. Really like the initial B too.

To my ear, [name_u]Baker[/name_u] is just connected to the occupation of baking. [name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Bear[/name_u] sounds like an animated character, i.e. a teddy bear who bakes.

Iā€™d be more inclined to see it as a middle name, e.g. [name_u]Dean[/name_u] [name_u]Baker[/name_u] (although then it sounds a bit like someone who works at a university, but thatā€™s okay!).

There is a [name_u]Baker[/name_u] in my family. It is a cute name, but it is also a very word-associated name, so I would avoid [name_u]Bear[/name_u] as a middle name. But if you like the alliteration, I like the suggestion of [name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Beau[/name_u] that another user recommended.

I canā€™t help but visualize a brown bear in an apron honestly, it is very funny but I doubt a kid would want to bear (unintended but Iā€™ll leave it) that name.

11

I think occupation names like [name_u]Mason[/name_u] and [name_u]Parker[/name_u] work because theyā€™re not used often in conversation. But ā€œbakerā€ is such an everyday word that I canā€™t imagine it as someoneā€™s name.

Tbh the word name [name_u]Baker[/name_u] is going to get alot of other kids making fun of it. I used to know someone called baker but it was a nickname because baker was his last name and thatā€™s fine. But as a real first name I just donā€™t think it works. Something similar like parker would be more acceptable I feel. Also [name_u]Baker[/name_u] [name_u]Bear[/name_u] sounds really silly. Id avoid a B letter middle name. I
