Name that Boy!!

Ok.  So the countdown has begun.  We are 10 weeks away from the due date and we cannot decide on a name for our baby boy, so now’s your chance to help us out.  Send us a comment and there may be something in this for the winner.

  2. I have many favorites but they’re not on par with the uniqueness of the girls’ names. I’ll ponder.

    Did I tell you I know another Eleri? She’s 9.

  3. What happened to Clive? Wasn’t that your choice for E? I think Clive is lovely. George is Will’s favorite of the moment (after Orwell)… Boy’s name are tricky. Can’t wait to see what you choose….

  6. I actually really like Alistair. . . it would go well with your other Irish names (Eleri, Adley, Alistair). I had Egan and Edan as choices for this little one. . . it means “bright little fire”.

  8. Can i be greedy and put in two names. I like Rylie (sticking with the “ie” ending) and Dalton.

  9. I like Julian and Gabriel. Shane is another favorite that Pete and I actually both agree on. :) I also really liked your Emyth name, too. Looks like you’ve got plenty to go on; I’m sure whatever you come up with will be cool.

  10. I have to say Clive to increase my chances of winning the “prize.” :) I like Everett or Olen (or Olin). I like Piotr (Peter). Of course I have to throw in a Polish name!

  12. Having vast experience with the naming of boys (hehehe) here’s my two cents worth. I could never get away with such cool artsy names with Fred. Davin, Baird, and Findlay. My poor British Gran would kill me for all those Irish names but I think they’re awesome. Hope that helps.

  13. I am a little late at suggesting a name but I know you like the Celtic names and being an Irish lass I have always loved the boy name Garrith, I had a friend from the Ranch named Nigel(he was from Dublin) and his brother’s name was Garrith…Brad never liked it :) I am sure whatever you decide it will be perfect just like the girls.
