I recently posted about a favorite boy combo of mine ,[name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]. I was slightly concerned because more people seem to prefer [name_u]Wren[/name_u] for a girl. Then someone brought up using it as a nickname for [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u]. I don’t particularly care for [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u], but I love the idea of using [name_u]Wren[/name_u] as a nickname. Any ideas what else it could be short for?
I really like [name_u]Ren[/name_u]/[name_m]Renn[/name_m] for a boy and it sounds the same, but the spelling [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is all girl to me. If you do a name search and ask to have “ren” in it you may come up with some ideas, or I think [name_m]Renn[/name_m] looks complete on its own. Maybe…
[name_m]Brennen[/name_m]
[name_m]Brendan[/name_m]
[name_m]Trent[/name_m]
Great idea, thanks 
I think [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is fine on its own.
Possible ways to [name_u]Wren[/name_u]:
[name_u]Reynold[/name_u]
[name_u]Darren[/name_u]
[name_u]Rene[/name_u]
[name_u]Cameron[/name_u]
[name_m]Clarence[/name_m]
[name_m]Farren[/name_m]
[name_m]Rennon[/name_m]
Sorren
[name_m]Terrence[/name_m]
[name_m]Warren[/name_m]
I had a similar predicament. If you don’t like [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] and are only considering it so you can call him [name_u]Wren[/name_u], then just call him [name_u]Wren[/name_u]. [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t give him a name you don’t even like, ya know?
This may just be the Game of Thrones fan in me talking, but I instantly though of “Renly” while reading your post, which I think is SUCH a cool name.
I like [name_m]Warren[/name_m] nn [name_u]Wren[/name_u] but I’d probably just spell it [name_u]Ren[/name_u]. I think it looks less feminine. [name_u]Ren[/name_u] [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] sounds very handsome!
I was going to mention Game of Thrones and “Renly,” too.
[name_u]Darren[/name_u]
[name_m]Brent[/name_m]
[name_m]Brenton[/name_m]
[name_m]Trenton[/name_m]
Too bad, I love [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] and [name_u]Laurence[/name_u].
You could name him [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]Wren[/name_u] and call him [name_u]Wren[/name_u].
[name_u]Wren[/name_u] is technically gender neutral, but the only people I know named [name_u]Wren[/name_u] are girls, something about it is just more feminine. [name_m]How[/name_m] you spell it isn’t going to change the sound, so that’s not going to help in the grand scheme of things. I say just go with it and get used to having to correct people if they say “she” when they first here the name
