GL! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2131593 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 21:55:01 +0000 mrscobee 2131593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Reading him the names and he likes Adam too but didn't seem to like Christian or Grant. His reactions are kind of random and funny because these are all good names, yet his opinions are so strong!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2131591 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 21:50:53 +0000 mrscobee 2131591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lady grey: haha!!! I tried my faves Jack and William! He vetoed, but maybe for a future kid?! He likes Jack a little better now b/c apparently that is Tom Brady's kid's name lol!! I think he likes William (I think it maybe isn't the best with our last name), but just not as much. Have always liked Benjamin, but it doesn't go with our last name (initials BO). He is very stuck on Matthew, which I like but am not 100% sold. For middle names we like Christopher, Douglas, or James but not sure yet. There are so many great suggestions here though, so I may keep referring back for the next few months to make sure he doesn't want to change his mind ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2131531 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 20:58:53 +0000 lady grey 2131531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrscobee: update please! What does your DH think of some of these new name ideas?? :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2128438 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 15:21:00 +0000 NorCalWayfarer 2128438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a Matthew and a Michael in our family :-) Our other name choices for boys were Miles, Marcus (nn Mark), Thomas, Adrian, Gabriel and Daniel. I also really like James and Jack but they weren't options due to family dynamics/weird sounding with our last name. William was one of my top names but DH didn't like it :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2128398 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 14:54:39 +0000 lady grey 2128398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrscobee: Cool! let us know what your DH thinks! I love the sound of Jack James, but I am a sucker for name alliterations! I know not everyone likes that kinda thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2128389 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 14:49:48 +0000 mrscobee 2128389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LibbyLou: Like a lot of these alternative suggestions too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2128388 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 14:49:03 +0000 mrscobee 2128388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lots of great thoughts here!

I like Marcus with Andrew and James. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2128365 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 14:37:07 +0000 lady grey 2128365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrscobee: I voted for another suggestion!

It's just so classic. And I adore James for a middle name. It's HARD! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2128298 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 14:09:43 +0000 stiletto_mom 2128298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mark Andrew *Owen </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2128159 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 12:52:56 +0000 LibbyLou 2128159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Matthew of your choices. </p> <p>I love Andrew as a first name too!<br /> Other classic names:<br /> Benjamin<br /> Isaac<br /> Philip<br /> Alexander<br /> William </p> <p>I love nicknames so Christoper called Kit or Andrew/Drew, and Matthew/Matt are my favorite!<br /> Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/another-bee-needing-boy-name-help#post-2128148 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 12:44:20 +0000 jhd 2128148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted Mark, but I also really like Matthew.

I agree with other posters that it is so hard!! We thought we had decided on one, and when DH calls baby that, I am not 100% sure that is his name! So if you could vote or suggest another name, it would be helpful!</p> <p>And below are some other boy names that are family names, that I would be more open to using as a middle name than a first name... So if you want to suggest some combos in the comments, that would be awesome too!</p> <p>Andrew<br /> Christopher<br /> Douglas<br /> James<br /> Louis<br /> Paul<br /> And proposed first names could be middle names too...</p> <p>Last name is two syllables and sounds like Owen.</p> <p>We are open to other names too. But DH (and I to an extent) like traditional names, and DH won't accept any suggestions too far outside the norm!</p> <p>ETA: Total coincidence that all first names start with M! </p>
