Baby names!

[AvaD]

Hello, i'm expecting my first baby, a boy, in MAy. Just wondering peoples thoughts on the names Harley Jack, Jaxon, Braden or Zac?

[B00]

Dont like any of those im afraid, but each to their own :-)

[ummmm]

Not my cup of tea either..

[penelope2]

Do what the Red Indians do, name it after the 1st thing you see :-)

[AvaD]

Alternatives appreciated.l.

I like Harley.

I'm guessing you prefer more unusual names??
What about Logan?

[puma86]

My little man is called Jake

[Traci66]

I have a grandson called Mason and another one named Cole, and one on the way, at the moment he is Ronin.

No guesses what little Jaxon would get called at school..........

[brenda]

Easier to choose something you like-- instead of try to get a consensus on here.I don't know how many ABers there are , but each may have a different view, if they all replied.

Yea puma! Im not a 'chav' before anyone pre-judges buti. Hate traditional names i.e Max, Tom, Daniel etc. I'm a bit indie so i'm going down the unusual route

When you eventually pick a name, just spare a thought for him as he gets older, will he thank you for being called after a motor cycle?

My choice would be a safe and standard name, there are 100's of them to choose from.

I like alot of names, the father is still in America so we havent really had an in depth discussion yet, my friends are useless, wanted more opinions.

[MrsLeeG]

personally id go for a more traditional name like Matthew but everyone has their own opinions on a subject like this, and at the end of the day it comes down to what you and your partner want!

The little lad over the road from me is called Cruz, not my cup of tea, but different I think.

[tinkerbell23]

[cathfromsaron]

its better to have a less stand out name, this about romeo and crux beckham ... ?

AvaD -you say you're a bit indie - no offence intended but those names sound a bit chavvie and jack is a really traditional name. how about finding a naming site that lists names in categories - remember this little guy is going to grow up too, so what sounds cute as a baby may end up an embarrassment later in life. Its such a difficult thing - my two boys had names sorted well before they were born - then I changed my mind practically while in labour! (no they aren't called 'oh sh*t!) maybe look for a name that can be shortened while they are little and sounds more grown up when they reach 40

Hence why I didn't call Mini Boo Poppy as I REALLY REALLY wanted to. Terribly cute in a baby and toddler, not so cute if she ends up applying for a high powered job in later life!

Personally I'm not keen on any of those apart from Zac. My latest nephew is going to be called Harley and I'm trying my best to get used to it but it's not a name I would ever choose. The best advise I can give is will your son like the name as it's only his opinion that really counts. Make sure you think of all the ways it could be shortened, will his initials spell anything not forgetting any middle names or does it rhyme with anything that could be used to tease him also how does it sound with his surname. It's surprising how many people seem to just pick a name out of the air and don't consider any of these things.
