Boy names

[txtransplant]

Got a baby boy due in a few months. Still trying to come up with a good name. Looking for something unique. Any ideas?

Congrats on your new boy! We have a new grandson as of a month ago - Archer

Oh man! Congrats! My son, Sage, is 12 now... Been a lot of fun hanging out together! Picking a name is hard.

I like Bear and Sawyer just to throw a couple out there.

Family names are always good.

I was going to name my first kid Hunter, but it was a girl. Later in life she told me she wished I named her that. I'm dumb.

You and the wife will find one that just clicks.

Congrats!!

I think Hunter is a great girls name. Actually if my wife and I have another one and it’s a girl we’re going with Hunter.

To the OP, it sure is tough! What are some names you guys are contemplating?

My son‘s name is Rowdy. He loves it. He’s about to graduate from college with a 3.9ish GPA. He’s a hunting and fishing machine. Great kid in every way.

My wife rejected every other hunting/fishing/outdoors name, but loved this one for some reason.

Combine the great-grandfather's first names to first/middle...

or use the boy's name we couldn't: Saxton Arthur

Sue!

Don’t try to get noticed with a cool name. Stick with something that means something to you and the family. Grandpa’s name would be first in line if you like it. Try to honor both sides of the family if picking family names.

Before we found out our last one was a girl we had a boy and a girl name picked out. Porter was the boy name. At a family get together we told them our boy and girl names we had picked out. My brother popped up and said "if its a Porter, I think the middle name should be Jon". I really liked the name Porter. But I don't know if my wife could have dealt with everyone calling him Porter Jon.

Here’s some advice from someone who got “creative” with the name. Don’t.

Congrats on the kid, give them a name that isn’t so uncommon that people have to ask how it’s spelt,, or where it came from, or what the meaning is.

Kids can be brutally honest with each other, and won’t think your unique name given to your kid is cool, and your kid will be the one that deals with it.

I appreciate traditional names for traditional men. I don't care so much for the made up names that some people keep coming up with. Names can show lineage and respect for those that came before.

If you kids name is the thing that makes them special they probably aren't.

You and your wife will find a name that fits and you'll know. Just know that if you pick a dumb name people like me will make fun of you.

Your kids named King Leonard IV, Lord Baron of the Trailer Park, Keeper of Bald Tires or something?

@rcb2000 @flatlanderhuffandpuff thanks, we’ll just go with “Chris” then. There’s not enough “Chris’s” around yet.
