47 comments

1. I do have a son. I named him Kai. I got it from the Vampire Diaries. Lol I just really liked the name.

2. Anthony because it’s been passed down for the last 3 generations, I want to keep the tradition going

3. Ben. I just like that name. Short, warm, friendly, lovable

4. Nikolai (Samoan for Nicholas). With Niko for nickname

5. My son’s name is Gideon

6. I’ve always loved Sebastian and Theodore

7. George… idk I just think it’s a cool name

8. Broken Rubber… nuff said.

9. My top three are Oliver, Callum and Easton

   I have no kids 😭😭😭😭

10. I love Theodore, or Aneurin (pronounced An-eye-rin ), Nye for short. I’ve always liked it, it’s not common (at least outside of Wales) and I admire Nye Bevin, who is the father of the NHS

11. Arthur. It’s a nice, sophisticated, British, mature name and not so common anymore.

12. If I wanted kids, then probably Tom, after my grandad. I didn’t have much luck with the rest of my grandparents, but I miss him. Also I just like the name.

13. Adnan. How i find this name is weird 😂
    I think i was 13/14 that time. I was reading short novel stories in the news paper. The story was about a girl who choose to marry someone who can give her secure life, she betrayed her lover. Now after 3 years 3of them met in same spot. The husband Doesn’t know about the lover. Fl described her husband starting of the story who is a navy officer. I was just enchanted by the description. Like she was describing my ideal type. I really became jealous of the fl. Husbands name was adnan. And i actually got to know this name 1st time from the story. I am like obsessed with this name. I wanted to find a bf by this name and sent him to navy btw then i realise It’s impossible 😂. So i am just going to name my son

14. My son’s name is Ezra. We both liked the name. I guess partially inspired by PLL.

15. Layne. Love Alice in chains and Layne Staley.

16. I have a son and named him Sullivan (Sully). I tell people it’s like Monsters Inc or Captain Sully. We actually named him after the old man in the Uncharted series.

17. Max. It’s just always liked it. It’s a classic easy name. Maxwell Ames full name.

18. Jack. It’s short, simple, no one can really mess it up (which is something I’ve dealt with my whole life).

    Plus it’s just like a good classic name imo.

19. Mason. I just like it.

20. I have two sons both with very common names. I think I would fill out my archangels with a Gabriel and Raphael: Gabe and Rafi.

21. I love the name Solomon. I’m a freckly geeky redhead and if my son came out the same I don’t know if he could pull it off

22. Nissan gtr r-35, the Godzilla

23. Sam, for Sam Vimes. (I’m still gonna use that name even if it’s a girl.)

24. Ellis or Aden. I like the way it flows off the tongue. I would also name my daughter Ellis. So it works both ways for me.

25. David, it’s always been my favorite boys name

26. Donquixote

    Good thing I’m not going to have kids lol

27. Hyunsoo. Idk, I like that it’s unisex and I… just like the name?

28. Morgan, middle name James after my brother. It’s a Welsh name and I want something somewhat androgynous.

    If I had a daughter I’d like to name her Maxine so I can call them M&M 😅

29. We like Wesley

    But with the cost of living and goodness-knows-what in store for the next generation we are staying child free now.

30. My son is Caleb. When we named him I had never heard of another boy with that name. Now they are everywhere! But its still a good name.

    His middle name is Nathaniel which I also like.

    Noah & Benjamin are the other boy’s name we never used.

31. ricky, julian, jacob, corey or trevor -tpb

32. Moritz, Florian or Franz. Just like those names.

33. Miles Alexander

    Classy name.

    Miles is elegant. You hear it, but its not something you will hear in every classroom when his name is called. Alexander is a name that flows well as a middle or first name.

    My goal with a baby name is something not too common, but not outlandish. Baby names are for the baby not the parents. No need to get ridiculous trying to think of a “unique” name, my baby would be special and unique enough just by being here.

34. Our first child already had a name we liked and suited him. Our second was named Albert, but is clearly an Isaac https://i.imgur.com/QCQn9si.jpg

35. Landyn

36. James after my grandad. He was the most kind and loving man. I hope I can raise a son to be as wise and thoughtful as him one day

37. Aiden. My partner chose the name for a potential daughter (Aurora), I chose the potential son’s name. I wanted a similar sounding one

38. Leonidas is the nick of one of my best friends and I told him that my first son would have his nick as name

39. Matthew because I really like the name

40. Eden

41. James

42. Simon. Classic, but not overdone, at least in my area

43. Reese. Love that name. Seems strong

44. My son is named Coen Wilder after the Coen Brothers and Billy Wilder. I love their writing and movies.

45. Henry. So I could call him Henrietta.

46. Rowan. Gender-neutral tree name.

47. Esteban Julio Ricardo Montoya de la Rosa Ramírez

    Or John
