 Topic: Boys names - help!Posted: 21 July 2009 at 9:45pm |
|
I am really struggling to find a boy's name this time round. I'll be having my scan next month and I really don't mind what sex baby is, but because we have a girl's name, it will be so easy if bubs is a girl. I'm thinking that if we find out it's a boy, I'll get anxious about having to find a blimmin' name!!
So please, any suggestions, that you think will go along with our other children's names too. Difficult - I know!
I would have Luca at the drop of a hat, but Dh is dead-set against it. His suggestions I'm not fond of at all. A couple are; Costa, Ngarimu, Nuku and can't remember the rest (he had about 5). I don't want to settle on a name that I don't love. And i don't even like any of his ideas. I've looked on the net so many times and none of the names jump out at me, and if any do and I tell Dh he doesn't like it.
HELP! I'd love to go into my scan, having a name for a boy! Edited by Italiah |

I like a lot of those names, problem is we either know someone else with them, or Dh doesn't like them. I have LOVED Reef since I was a kid - thought I made it up! I also like Ryder and Trey but DH doesn't. We know a Seth, Kian, Dane, Tai, Reef, Carlo. I think Cruz is pretty cool but know Dh wouldn't have it. I have thought of Rocco, but too close to Rico.
With all our childrens names, Dh has been the one to suggest it, and I've liked it. He's NEVER liked my ideas |

I love the name Luca too and my DP doesn't like it either.... I love Elliot as well but it's another no go with DP... the only name we agree on at this stage is Jett - but that's not an option for you

I like the idea of Marco too. Your names have an itallian feel to them dont they? I'm struggilng cos we chose very conservative names (family names) so havent thought of others. I hope its a girl and then it wont matter
Oh and I like Luca. A friend down here has cold her wee boy Pax (means peace in latin apparently) and Ithink that is cool |

One of JJ's little friends at daycare is called Nikau, which I love - but it's pronounced so it rhymes with Rico so I guess it's not an option for you
 It's a good jumping off point for name suggestions though...

Boys names are hard! I like the way Luca sounds and it would go perfectly with your kids names. I like the names Eli and Archie, though I kinda like names that are cute and that babies don't have to 'grow' into, for example calling a baby Bruce. |

Also I would search Maori names because there are a lot that are different and sound nice. And are not common!

Yes we liked Nikau too - but chose Rico over that. I don't mind Marco, but don't love it either. Kandice - have a friend with a boy Noah - born 3 days after Jett!
Liz - DH would sing that same song everytime I suggested Luca - think that's why he thought it was a girl's name - cos it's a chick singing. Luca is italiah or Russian - Luka. And I know that name would go perfect with the other 3!
Nikki our kids names do have an italian feel to them - Gia is, but Rico is spanish. So I was searching for more italian and spanish names, but most of them would be too hard to pronounce in little old NZ, plus they don't sound as good with a kiwi accent.
There are plenty of names I would probably have, but it's getting Dh to agree!! I'm scared to suggest any knowing Dh will just straight up say no. |

Boys names - help!
Topic Options
. I've suggested Luca since pg with Gia, and he's always turned it down. Originally he said it was a girl's name (I've never thought that, nor heard of a girl named that), now he says it's cos his friend is Luke and it's too close to that. See how hard it is for me?!! With the other 3, we had our names for each sex by now. Except with Gia - had no boys name until I found Caius. Dh liked that and the day I went into labour with her (we didn't know the sex) we said Gia for a girl, Caius for a boy. I didn't love Caius but it was the only one we could agree on. Now I have a niece called Kaia so we couldn't have Caius anyway - too close.
