DH and I have been tossing around boy names for awhile, and just found out LO#2 is a boy!
Which names do you like best?? Are there any you don't care for?
Middle name will either be James or Andrew

I really like Callan. It's different, but not super different. Plus I think Callan James sounds distinguished.

The only name I don't like is Maddox. I prefer just Cal. I prefer James as a middle.

I have always liked the name Oliver. I would go with James as the middle name if you use it!

I think you have good taste! The only one I don't care for is Lincoln.

I like Oliver and Elliot the best. I'm considering James and Andrew for first names right now.

Like them all! I don't ever hear Pierson but I don't dislike it. I prefer pierce a bit more but just personal preference.
Oliver and Lincoln are my favorite. I think Elliot is going slightly girl. The last two Elliot's I know are female.

Thank you all for sharing your opinions!! We have awhile to decide at least. I'm kinda bummed Callan is lagging behind on votes- I think Callan and Lincoln are my favorites, maybe Callan slightly more...I adore the nn Cal too.
@JennyG: I think it sounds amazing too!@MUI831: love it! It's not that common, but not too out there, which I love.

@NovBaby1112: I think I like that Callan isn't getting too many votes. . . just means there won't be a ton of them out there.

I actually love Callan and it isn't one I"ve ever thought of before! I think Callan James sounds awesome. I also love Oliver, and Maddox (although that is more on the trendy side).

My LO's name is Callan Arthur and we love it! He's the only one we've met with that name and everyone seems to love it!

@SproutBee: aww cute name! Glad to hear everyone likes it
Thank you everyone! I think Elliot is out, DH is meh about that one now. We both love Oliver and its DHs middle name, but I do think it's becoming quite popular so that is making me second guess. I love Maddox a lot but it does remind me of Branjolina and I don't know if I can get past that!
Really leaning towards Callan plus DH loves it too. We have some time to figure it out though

@Mrs. Bee: Ditto.
That said, I really love the sound of all the names. I also prefer James with all of them over Andrew. I really like Lincoln James, and would totally call him LJ or Linc (or both)!

I like Callan! Also all the love for Oliver James reminded me that it's the name of a really pretty Fleet Foxes song.

@NovBaby1112: I voted Elliot! I'm in love with that name right now.
