Help me find a boy's name

DD is Lila Brooke. Poor baby was nameless until I was 37 weeks pg, when DH finally caved and agreed to the name I wanted. Chat Icon I'm not quite 11 weeks, but I don't want to go through The Great Name Debate again.

This time, we have a girl's name mostly set, but a boy's name is going to be a problem. I like classic names. Middle name will be Henry or Harrison. We have a 3-syllable Jewish last name. As an added bonus, we have a ton of male relatives and we can't reuse their first names (Jews typically won't name after living relatives). Names I can't use are:

Bruce
Mitchell
Jeffrey
Alexander
David
Craig
Joshua
Jared
Kyle
Michael
Ethan
Dylan
Nathan (not a relative, but my sister "tagged" this one and she'll be TTC soon).


Help?

Boy names are so hard!!!! We have a handful of girl names that we love, but can't come up with boy names that we both like. These are some of my favorites... I'm trying to get DH to agree on at least one of them!

Re: Help me find a boy's name

Are you planning on naming the baby after anyone who has passed? That can help narrow things down. We have a limited range of names to choose from because we are naming the baby after my grandmother. It actually helped to be limited!

We're naming the baby for my grandmother Harriet. H's are really hard lol. That's why we're going with Henry or Harrison for a middle. Not sure I love either of them as a first.

H is SO hard. We are naming after my Grandmother, who was Gertrude. Her Hebrew name was Chaya Gittel, so I'm basing the baby's English name on that if it's a Chat Icon, and I have a G name if it's a boy. Both letters are tough! My sister needed an H for my nephew's middle name and went with Jeremy Howard. Jeremy Harrison would sound nice!

Re: Help me find a boy's name

I want to run some of these by DH, but we have such different taste in boy's names. I like simple and classic; he likes modern or super-Jewish. I want to pull rank on him lol. I'm doing all the hard stuff! Chat Icon

FWIW I love Harrison as a first name but I'm not sure I love it with your last name...

That was no help at all sorry Chat Icon

I like Seth and I like Samuel (probably b/c my niece is Samantha, so I know I can't use it myself!). I think both would go nicely with Harrison.

Re: Help me find a boy's name

What about Robert or Brian? Both are pretty classic and simple enough to go with either middle name. I also like Louis and Kenneth.
