Desperate for boy name
16
Sun, 12-03-2006 - 11:20pm

We just found out we are having a boy. We were sure it was a girl. I had all kinds of girl names that I liked but not really any boy names. I need help! I don't want anything too popular or too out there, but I want something a little different. My daughter's name is Jamie Elizabeth and my son's name is Drew William.

All replies are greatly appreciated!!!!

What about Vidar, Lucien or Tycho?


What kind of names do you want?

Jamie, Drew, and:

August/Gus

Weston/West

Wyatt

Scott

Clinton

Arden

Owen

Beau

Carson

Hunter

Xander

Micah

Christian

Simon

Beckett/Beckham/Beck

Jeremiah

Elliott

Rhett

Gavin

I think my favourite combo is Jamie Elizabeth, Drew William, and Colby Jeremiah. (although I do think you should use a family mn, just using Jeremiah as an example)

HTH, let me know your thoughts

I'd like something a little more traditional or maybe even a little old-fashioned, but I don't want the same name as everyone else out there. Thanks for the ideas!

I do like Colby and Cole a lot, but he will have a cousin with the name of Colton and I wonder if it would be confusing or too similar. I also like Scott but my husband already ruled that one out. Our last name is Whittaker so some of the names don't seem to roll together just right, if you know what I mean. Thanks for all the ideas!

I really like Cole, but as I mentioned in the previous post there is a cousin with the name of Colton and I wondered if it was too similar. I also like Luke. My husband will be happy to hear Dominic as that was a name that he suggested and I laughed at him. Thank you for the ideas!

I do not think that Cole and Colton would be too close, but that is just me - good luck with the hunt!

I wanted to add that I like sound of Eli Whittacker - If you think Eli is too short, the full name could be Elliott or Elias.
