Boy names!

Boy names are so hard. I had so many I loved for my first one and ended up calling her Willow like a week after she was born! Really struggling with deciding on a boy name! We like Rowan but what am I doing, raising a bloody forest?!

I was convinced we were having a boy because we couldn’t decide on a name for anything lol my husband was completely uninterested in boy names and said i could pick. We had a girl name before we knew and thankfully she was a girl lol

Honestly I love Rowan!! My boys are Adrian Malachi & Rhett Leon (if you’ve seen gone with the wind you know).

@Katie I had only boys names for years, first and middle-our first was gonna be a family from both sides, then my brother in law used that name for his son so I settled on other names but wasn’t convinced. Then when I got pregnant I wasn’t sure if it was boy or girl, but I chose girls names I loved—no boys. Our first is a boy and I had no clue for so long 😂😂

@Megan Everett Sawyer Archer Rowan is cute with Willow though! Do it because you love the name!

I honestly like Willow and Rowan, they feel like names in their own right not just tree names so it’s subtle enough

I considered the name Jethro with Jet for short! My husband didn't like it though 🙄

I love Willow and Jet!!

I like Percy as the full name so cute!

@Amalia Everett was one of the only big names i liked! Lol

It was definitely a struggle for me. Former teacher and worked in daycares and preschools. Names were HARD

I like Rowan best

Rowan is better than any of the names in your poll..

Phoenix. I could name a gaggle of girls but struggle for boy names. Plenty of girl names sound so pretty, most boy names sound too dated or just not sound like a real name in general. (IMO) I’ve seen some pretty weird ones.

@Stephanie🌸 me too but husband isn’t keen!

@N 💞 what have you got for your boys?

Sometimes I look at these names and think they’re all terrible, but I don’t just want a boring name. I’m not sold on Rowan but I think I’ll just wait until he’s here and then see what he looks like

@Megan Jacob & Noah.

@N 💞 ahh see I think we have different taste! I don’t like biblical or more generic names- hence my selection!

@Megan ok? You’ve publicly asked for opinions on 5 different names, I’ve given my opinion. I don’t know why my choice of names for my children even comes into it? I didn’t choose the names because they’re biblical, I chose them because I liked them…

@N 💞 well I just wondered because you didn’t like like any of them - so I checked and it turns out we have different taste, so I shouldn’t be surprised you don’t like my names. It wasn’t an insult 🤷🏻‍♀️
