hi, just found out yesterday we are having a boy. we had a girls name picked out and have no clue for a boy. dh wants a name that begins with the letter 'a'. i don't want to use a name that is overly popular.

any suggestions?

thanks

I love your name Andrea. It is on my short list for girl names. Here are some "A" name suggestions for a boy:

*Abbott, *Ace, Adam, Alden, *Alec, *Anders, Anson, Anton, *Asher.

Just a few came to mind (without trying to repeat what the pp listed



  • Aaron

  • Abe

  • Aric (although I prefer Eric)

  • Alex (Maybe to popular right now)

  • Andrew (Maybe to popular and to close to your name)
