Thought I had a good name now I'm put off

[bassdesire]

I no longer like Ezra. Ugh, I'm feeling so down about naming my baby. I didn't have a name for my second until days after she was born. I don't want that this time :/

I liked
Simon
Asher
Jude
Oren
Etai

Then I randomly thought of names like oliver, which really doesn't fit with my others

 

[BunInTheBelly]

Aww, sorry that you're having a hard time with names. Just keep a short list of possible names you like, then see which one fits your newborn when you see him for the first time.

What are the names of the older sibs?

 

[bassdesire]

Both Hebrew/Israeli type names. When my second was born we couldn't decide anything so the wait and see probably wont work :/ I don't want my first days being all about the naming back and forth.....I just wish we could pick my first had a name before birth

 

[Storm1jet2]

What about Joel or Levi?

 

[bassdesire]

Yes I like lev/Levi but hubby worries everyone will pronounce like the jeans lee-vi......I like lay vee

 

[lavenderbrown]

I like Simon, Asher, and Oliver

I like Asher -- I think Asher Jude is a great combo!

Oliver is cute too!

Some additional suggestions:

Daniel
Ari
Benjamin
Adam
Gabriel
Isaiah
Ian
Elijah
Jordi
Josiah
Jordan
Jacob
Caleb
Zachary
Matthew
Samuel
Tobias/Toby


Hope you find a name you love!

Tobias was on the list for awhile... Then I thought it sounded like the name of a big slobbering dog or something? I don't know if it is just me lol...

I liked Caleb, too, for a bit...

It's funny since you picked a few I had liked before as well. Ben is nice, but too common for my liking.

Asher.

My cousin had a baby boy called Chai this week, which is a Hebrew name.

What about Simeon instead of Simon?

We don't want a "ch" name, though I like many of them...of course our families are fine with Dh, but at public it might not be hard.

I can't see myself saying Simeon, you know? When Simon (shimon) is so much easier on the toungue.

 

[BunInTheBelly]

Well, out of your list I like Asher the most.

I've always been a fan of Elijah/Eli, too. If we end up with three boys (good heavens) there's a good chance it would be in there somewhere!
