Which names should I add to my list?

Boy Names
1

My husband hates discussing baby names and is very picky so I’m trying to come up with a solid list with a decent number of options before I even bring up the name discussion with him lol.

I’ve got two lists going right now. List 1 is all names that I like and would be willing to use. List 2 is names I haven’t quite made up my mind about yet, but that I’m considering adding to List 1, which will be the list I discuss will my husband. I know the lists are on the long side, but my husband is so picky I want to give him plenty of options for us to discuss. My husband tends to like short almost nickname style names.

So if anyone wants to tell me:

  1. What are you favorite names from either list?
  2. Which names from List 2 should I move to List 1?
  3. What names not listed here would you suggest for us?

List 1:
Liam
Tristan
Rory
Adrian
Calvin
Desmond
Evan
Jesse
Miles
Joel
Simon
Malcolm
Ambrose
Dominic
Adam
Cade
Oliver
Damian
Rhys
Kolbe
Jaime

List 2:
Anders
Asher
Ford
Orlando
Daniel
Shane
Cory
Wes
Tyler
Jonas
Nial
Dane
Keaton
Declan
Ronan
Cian
Nolan
Eli
Aaron
Hugo

I’d love to hear your thoughts! And I promise I will not be offended if you hate any/all of the names haha! :wink:

Favourites, List 1:
[name_u]Tristan[/name_u]
[name_m]Adrian[/name_m]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
[name_m]Desmond[/name_m]
[name_u]Evan[/name_u]
[name_u]Miles[/name_u] (careful with this one- I’ve been seeing it come up a lot lately!)
[name_u]Cade[/name_u]

Favourites, List 2:
[name_m]Anders[/name_m]
[name_u]Cory[/name_u]
[name_m]Wes[/name_m]
[name_u]Dane[/name_u] (I personally think of this as a tall person name, which is positive to me :joy:)
[name_m]Cian[/name_m]
[name_u]Nolan[/name_u]

I think [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] (if he is into surnames at all) and [name_u]Nolan[/name_u] would be good to add! Your second list has a lot of names that would be good to consider with the first list; however, I can see the hesitancy if popularity or a “common” identity is a turnoff. I personally would make most of the second list the first list, though.

I can’t really take time to think of other fitting names at the moment, but I wish you well on your journey!
