help us find a boys name



everyone
Ive sealed up only to get your assistance on this issue, given DH doesnt wish me deliberating options with any one we know&3 haha

We are REALLY struggling to find a boys name. I think I contingency be utterly fussy&3 Every name I identical to I finish up anticipating something that doesnt work about it, and that thing will unequivocally spin me off the name and I cant get past it. I thought may be if I discuss it you the names I have favourite you competence be means to get a feel for what we identical to and give me a small some-more suggestions, or alternatives that get around my hangups.

Our surname is identical to McNaughton. As most as I love it, I am anticipating it unequivocally formidable to compare names with&3 I dont identical to alliteration, so that has ruled out both M and N names for me, and so most names only dont work with it.

My collect big thing is nicknames I unequivocally wish a name that has both a prolonged version and a nickname, and I need to identical to both names&3

I would additionally identical to it to have a great meaning, we do identical to biblical names, but this is not a clear rule

OK, so far...

Caleb Cal this was regularly the tip choice. We love the biblical namesake and it only worked. But we were regularly meditative "Caleb James" and never unequivocally attempted observant "Caleb McNaughton" contend it out shrill the a genuine mouthful. The b receptive to advice at the finish only doesnt upsurge with the M receptive to advice of the surname. If you contend it fast it ends up sounding identical to Cayla McNaughton. I cant get past this. I have deliberate Callum/Callem as an collect but it doesnt appear to unequivocally work possibly and I dont love it as much

Asher Ash desired this until we realised how identical it is to the dogs name Tashen. Thats only weird. Definately cant get past that&3

Isaac Zac I desired this, but DH was never so keen. But right away at your convenience I think about it I think "Zac Mac" that I unequivocally dont like.

James James is a family name from DH side that marry identical to to soak up somewhere, probably center name. I have thought about it as a initial name, but I unequivocally dont identical to Jim as a nickname, and Jamie, that is unequivocally sweet, was a family house pet so that doesnt work for me. Also I have a cousin James so bit awkward.

Hamish Looove this the a version of James so all works&3 but this child is expected to have red hair and given were not scottish I think such a fullon scottish name is only cruel. I saw a kids book called Hamish McHaggis" about this small scottish creature, and my mind keeps going there&3 Same understanding for Lachlan, that I unequivocally liked, and additionally Angus.

Theyre the main ones, but here are a small others weve favourite but ruled out
Elijah Eli Didnt realize I favourite this until dual friends used it on their new babies. Dammit&3
Lucus I identical to Lucus, but not a fan of luke.
Rueben not certain I love it, and no great nickname.
Joel, Ethan, Oscar, Judah, Daniel, Alexander, Zachary, Samuel all names of close friends kids that we cant use.

Well, Aparate Foto pics if youve review compartment this point, THANK YOU&3 Would love to listen to your thoughts.
