Trudy - Boy names

[thedahliharpa]

Two just came to me...TrudyCampbell

Barrett (sounds kind of waspy maybe, like Everett but not so modern)
Neil (retro and a bit nerdy, can't nickname)

Feel free to hate :-)

[carawestt]

I like Barrett!

[kistjenn]

Sorry for just jumpin in......... but I like Everett.

I know this lady who has 2 boys named Fischer and Finn; it makes me think Tom Sawyer.  Which then made me think of the name Thatcher for a boy.
Anyway, very random thought.

[charmediamsure]

I really, really love Everett.

And Jack is a classic name, you know

Thatcher was on our boy list until we had a Harper which excluded all names ending in "er" for us.

[kistjenn]

thedahliharpa I see your point.  Harper is great name too........it was on our list with Ashlynn.

I love Barrett. We considered it for a bit, but I had a professor with that last name whom I really disliked. Fucker ruined class and my baby name!

[angiekay84]

I kinda like Neil? I mean, it's a neat one to add to the Noah love. I even like Noel (ahem, as in Noel Crane from Felicity).

Name brainstorming is so fun.

Neil is my uncle's name after my grandma's maiden name, O'Neil.

[imimahoney]

I really really like Neil.

I still wish we'd been able to use Desmond but neither boy was really a Desmond when they were born.

ETA I AM DUMB AND MISREAD


I made a whole thread about Everett! You prob told me its not the one

I love it, but is it weird sounding with Violet?

[TrudyCampbell]

My H's uncle is Neil so I wouldn't use it. But I like the sound of it! No nicknames, music to my ears.

To me, Barrett is not as good as Everett. But I like how you think, woman!

The Everett love is making my head explode.

I actually get anxiety thinking about how if I choose Everett you will hate it, lol.

I'm leaning on Spencer these days.

[Beener]

Neil is my late grandfather's name. I love it.

TrudyCampbell, your love of Spencer reminds me of my number one boy name right now: Reid (If you don't watch Criminal Minds, Spencer Reid is the super intelligent PhD criminologist).

[The Foozzler]

I love everything about Spencer for you. I love it with Violet. I love it with your last name. I love it as a family set with your first names.

I'm loving it too! My husband refuses to discuss it with me until we find out its a boy. The man has a point but come onnnn!

I know an Everett that is called "Ev".

The more I hear Spencer, the more I love it.

I don't think there is one, which is what I'm going for. I mean "Ev" is one I guess but he wouldn't introduce himself as Ev so it isn't a big deal to me.

hmmmm maybe a combo with your DH's suggestion that incorporates another "E" as a middle name..Oh wait Elliot starts with "E". It should start with "E" for sure...

Spencer Eames
