We have narrowed down our boy name list. Which do you like best? Siblings are: Callysta, Caeden, Lochlan, and Aria. Last name starts w/ M and is 2 syllables.
Sullivan Reilly (not sure if I like nn for this Sully or Van)
Rhys Sullivan
Grayson Reilly
Solon Reilly (I have liked this one for awhile, but again not sure about a nickname)
I also like Rory, kind of, and I like Declan alot but I think it may be too close to Lochlan.
Well what do ya think?
Thanks,
Andrea edd 4/30

Sullivan Reilly - I am big fan of Sullivan and I think it goes great with the other kids
Rhys Sullivan - this is nice too, but I like Sullivan more
Grayson Reilly - ok, what about Graham?
Solon Reilly - what about the nn Sol? That seems like the obvious nn to me.
Rory - ok, kind of juvenile IMO
Declan - love it, but I agree that it is too close to Lochlan
I love Sullivan (nn Sull/Saul works too) and Rhys (though I wouldn't pair it with an S mn ... runs together).
You might also like Rory as a nn for Riordan, Rowan/Rohan or even something like Ronan.
I agree that Declan is too close to Lochlan, but Donovan might be a nice alternative (similar to both Declan and Sullivan, so thought it might appeal).
HTH ;)

Sullivan Reilly - A fabulous combo. LOVE it. Here are some threads on Sullivan to read up on:

Rhys Sullivan- I love both names, but not together. Since Rhys ends in an "s" and Sullivan starts with one, they run together. Rhys Declan would be much better.
Grayson Reilly- Grayson is pretty trendy. I like Graham nn Gray better
Solon Reilly - I prefer Soloman
I also like Rory, but prefer it as a nn for Gregory. As a similar name to Declan, you could consider Deacon.
HTH,

I just saw Jonathan Rhys Meyers interviewed the other day and I was thinking I'd love to see Rhys used more.
Thanks for all the input it is greatly appreciated and has helped. We've narrowed it down to 2 (possibly 3) and will probably wait to see what the baby will look like. Maybe we'll be lucky and it'll be a girl, because I've had that name picked out for weeks.
thanks again,
andrea
