Struggling with boys names!!

Hi girls, my partner and I have really struggled with boys names and it feels like every name given just isn’t right for us! We love the traditional English names like George and Archie, however they just don’t seem to suit. My partner’s name is Charlie. Any recommendations?🤍

Boys names are the hardest! Both times babies weren’t named till a week after they were born. We have a Hugo Oliver and Ralph. I like Henry but a friends baby was called Henry as I wanted H and H and then we decided on Hudson but someone last minute named their baby Hudson 🙄🙈 Good luck 😂

John Charles (Junior) Ronald Harry Harrison Jackson Ryan Hudson David Harley Gabriel Nathaniel

Barnaby (Barney) Montgomery (Monty) Albert (Albie) Thomas Edward (Ted) Leo Rory Jude Kit Caleb Elliot Casper Jack

@Meg that sounds like the hardest name race I’ve ever heard of!😂 love Hugo though, just dont think it would suit us🫠 we read our names out to see if anything sticks, maybe that’s where we’re going wrong!xx

James Oliver Alexander I would struggle with boys names as well.

We chose Luke and Thomas

Vincent/Vinnie

I struggled with boys names I have a logan

@Brooke haha we liked Hugo and we liked Oliver and then we knew when he was here he was more of a Hugo but it’s scary haha like that name is for life it’s not like an outfit 😂🙈 Also don’t be afraid to not give him a name straight away and call him a few names to see which ones suit him best 😂 it’s quite amusing how frustrated family get when there’s no name haha x

My sons called levi I found it so hard to find a boys name I liked I had so many girl names which was handy when I had my little.girly x 🤣

We have a Frederick (Fred), Sebastian (Seb) and will be naming our next Timothy (Tim) x

We struggled and baby boy was nameless for a week Decided on Anderson

We have a Louis - we liked it because it’s quite traditional but not very common. His middle name is Alexander which was second fave

Following!! I’m due tomorrow and still can’t think of any names I like😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Our son is Fredrick (Freddie) but we also loved Rory and Rowan x

I like old English traditional names, I have a daughter but traditional names for boys I like Walter, sully, Vance, lonnie and benny x

I have a Jeremiah and a Nathaniel. I will say my oldest I knew the sex and we had his name picked out beforehand. My sisters first question was, "Are you sure he's a Jeremiah?" As she had multiple friends that had picked out names, called their baby by that name during there pregnancy and when baby was born decided it didn't fit and changed said name. I'll say with my next 2 I didn't find out the gender, and neither one had their names until a couple hours before we left the hospital as we were trying to find the one that fit.
