It'll be easier to come to a decision once he gets back from deployment (next month...EEEEEK!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-49087 Sun, 08 Jan 2012 21:25:57 +0000 Mrs. Pen 49087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: I've had a REALLY hard time with boy names too. Asher has always been one of my favorite names, ever since I was a teenager. We ended up choosing a different name, but I still love it so maybe if we have another boy someday.<br /> I understand your concern, my last name ends in "N" and is a series of harder sounds (R, D ending in N).. so it was tough. I loved the name Boden but it sounded awful with our last name.</p> <p>Some names from my list:<br /> Wesley, Adler, Emmett, Liam, Finley, Abel, Asher, Beckett, Elias, Emery, Flynn, Gideon, Coby, Parker, Logan, Eitan, Jude, Paxton and Peyton.</p> <p>It just took forever narrowing it down and ended up going with a name not even on our list ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-19774 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 21:32:19 +0000 kentuckygirl 19774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Clay, Seth, Andrew, Russell (Russ), Tate, and maybe a little "out there" with Greer</p> <p>These won't work because of the "n" but I also like Ryan, Owen and Mason. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-19731 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 20:25:19 +0000 MH.Abroad 19731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaiLife: Ooh, I love Slate! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-19720 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 20:15:38 +0000 rawrasaur 19720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A few more suggestions:<br /> Keefer<br /> Russel<br /> Slate<br /> Turner<br /> Thatcher<br /> Parker<br /> Sterling </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-19255 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 10:19:09 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 19255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: haha... I agree! I'm sorry then ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-19249 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 10:12:08 +0000 Navy_Mommy 19249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blushink: Being in the Navy, Top Gun will never be far away, haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-19238 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 09:58:06 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 19238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we were thinking of names we had :</p> <p>Maverick (minus the E) , Liam, Miles, Ryan, Jaxson in mind.<br /> What about Emerick? (in stead of Mavrick) it's pretty popular here in Quebec, so we didn't opt for that. </p> <p>Names are tough! I feel your pain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-19235 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 09:56:12 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 19235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: aw! I love Maverick. But I know what you mean with what people would say. People here know it's top gun, but I told myself that when it's time that my son goes to school... Top Gun will be a far far away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-19233 Mon, 21 Nov 2011 09:50:32 +0000 BananaPancakes 19233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PitBulLover: I like all of those! </p> <p>I also like Gunner/Gunnar. Very manly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-19005 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 21:30:55 +0000 PitBulLover 19005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about Marshall or Forrest?<br /> I also love the names Miles.<br /> I know someone whose name is Everett and he goes by Ev. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-18976 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 20:32:08 +0000 AmeliaBedelia 18976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Asher is a great name!</p> <p>I wanted to come on and pipe up about a name that is a bit out there, so I'm not sure if you'll like it or not. A woman I know has a husband named Matrix. Your Maverick suggestion immediately reminded me of him. Also - Max and Avery seem similar to me. :-) Just throwing it out there because, who knows? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-18888 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 17:14:46 +0000 pelikila 18888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You could use Ev for Everett. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-18881 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 15:47:20 +0000 loveisstrange 18881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: Haha, very true. We have a couple ideas for her name, but nothing solid. DH doesn't want to talk about it yet. I'm going to make him talk about it in the next 2 weeks because my family is throwing me a baby shower when I fly home at the beginning of December. </p> <p>You could always use Rhett as a NN for Everett. Thats the only one I could think of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please/page/2#post-18877 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 15:41:32 +0000 mediagirl 18877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: OMG my husband has the same problem. When I mention a name, 9/10ths of the time, he says no b/c of a name in a TV show or movie. Names are so tough - boy names, in my opinion, are harder than girl names. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18869 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 14:45:56 +0000 Navy_Mommy 18869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: You're having a girl; you can't have an Asher anyway! lol.</p> <p>I like Asher more than Everett just because I can't think of any nicknames I would like for Everett... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18867 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 14:29:29 +0000 pelikila 18867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also, if Asher is a favorite but not quite it an alternate is Archer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18863 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 14:12:53 +0000 loveisstrange 18863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: Nymbler is seriously amazing. I'm glad he liked them! Not gonna lie, I'm rooting for Asher. It was in my boy name list and DH shot it down REAL fast. I think it's so cute and I love the idea of Ash for a nickname. I'd get to live vicariously through you. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18850 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 13:14:37 +0000 looch 18850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Try the book...if you can get to a bookstore, it might be worth it. It has names in categories, so it will show you names that have the same feel. I thought the categories were interesting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18848 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 13:06:17 +0000 Navy_Mommy 18848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: I've been to their website and didn't really like it. I did like Nymbler though! I just went there last night after another Bee recommended it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18844 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 12:59:42 +0000 cyneswith 18844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Understand about wanting him home. Hubby just got home from Afghanistan a few weeks ago. And yay for Asher! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18842 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 12:57:08 +0000 looch 18842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a name suggestion, but a resource, Baby Name Wizard. Get it in paperback, read bits at a time. It also has a great website where you can get all kinds of information. My husband and I, who are complete data nerds, had a ton of fun with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18817 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 11:54:47 +0000 Navy_Mommy 18817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: Hubby like Everett and Asher!</p> <p>I really wish he was home sometimes...having conversations like this via email sucks!</p> <p>ETA - I ALWAYS wish he was home...sometimes its just even harder than usual... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18785 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 10:41:17 +0000 chopsuey 18785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Beckett! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18753 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 10:01:35 +0000 sorrycharlie 18753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: yay! I love Asher too. We actually had a baby name talk last night - Liam has always been DH's favorite, but it recently shot to #2, so no way jose. bummer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18741 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 08:15:29 +0000 winniebee 18741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>William, Henry, Oliver, Tyler, Liam </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18736 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 07:51:40 +0000 pelikila 18736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also like Miles a lot. Hope your husband likes your top three picks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18735 Sun, 20 Nov 2011 07:16:06 +0000 loveisstrange 18735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: Asher is totally my favorite of those!

It's a great name and not as common. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-name-help-please#post-18653 Sat, 19 Nov 2011 23:09:04 +0000 Navy_Mommy 18653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Top 3 for me right now (in no particular order) are Everett, Asher, and Bennett. I emailed DH about them; I'll see what he thinks when he gets a chance to respond (probably tomorrow morning) </p>
