Already stressing over names

[Nanninoo]

Long winded sorry

I'm only in week 10 and already the realisation of finding names Is worrying me! I have a DS who is called Zachary and before finding out the sex of him we had picked Zachary from the start if it was a boy, I just liked it for a long time. I'm trying to do a boy and girls list although I'm concentrating more on the boys as I find them harder ( there are so many nice girls names) I don't think I will have a problem picking a girls name if we were having a girl but the thought of if we are having a boy scares me a little not because we wouldn't want another boy but because I have no idea on what names for boys nothing is jumping out at me that I really like....
I like names like Charlie, Archie, Oliver ect.. But they are becoming very popular and I don't want a name too popular I also liked Harrison but it's too close to Zachary (both have hary) I then liked Frazier but i don't know now people say it reminds them of Fraser the American series! So confused now I like longish names that I can shorten like Zachary too Zach....after all this stressing I might find out I'm having a girl but I want to be prepared if it's a boy besides I have a feeling it's a boy.

Any help ladies on boys names please x

I'm hating boys names too Our list at the moment= Reuben, Leo, Raff, Rex, Dexter, Keir, Spencer, Sawyer xxx

 

[Nanninoo]

We have Reuben on our list too
We have so far for possible names.... Reuben, Frazier/Fraizer, Maison/Mason, Riley, Ashton & Hayden. I'm finding boys names a struggle too!

 

[Princesskell]

What about Logan, Brett, Aston, Austin, Brody? Xxx

 

[Nanninoo]

I know two friends with sons Logan and brody. Aston reminds me of the car! I know a Brett and not keen on Austin god I'm in for a struggle if it's a boy lol! Help! Why is this so difficult what makes matters worse is OH never seems keen on the names I like and the names he likes I don't! That's why I need to be prepared with boys names incase we are having a little boy again.

I know a Zachary and Leighton? Xxx

 

[Nanninoo]

I like Leighton.....but (yes there's another but lol) it's the surname of my best friends ex husband who only recently separated and are going through a divorce so I don't think I could use that
Why oh why is boys names so difficult

Hon I really wouldn't worry about the Frazier/sitcom thing. I've seen your other threads and am really surprised that other people are bringing that up. It's a good, strong, traditional name that is very cute for a little boy but also mature for man. It's a relatively common name but not at all faddy - I totally agree re Archie etc.

Would you not consider taking the i out of it, I think that's quite an americanised spelling and possibly where the Frasier comparison is coming from. In Scotland it would just be Fraser or Frazer.

 

[Princesskell]

Frazer is nice xxx

 

[Nanninoo]

Thanks girls I do like Frazer but spelt with an i either Fraizer or Frazier as I like the American way of spelling as our DS is called Zachary and that is also American so wanted to do the same and I prefer it with an i I think it looks more 'quirky' iykwim xx
