So we've always had such a hard time thinking of boy names. (Keep in mind that our last name is Jackson... and there's a lot of famous Jackson's). We have a name in mind for the baby, but I just can't decide if it's the 'right' name. Baby books just haven't done it for us... there's just too many... and I swear half of them aren't real names.
So I'm asking for ALL of you to comment and tell me any boy names that come to mind.
(except, or course, a cherished name that you hope to name your child)
Boy Names?

I don't envy you - boy names are sooo hard. I know I started a list around here somewhere before we knew what we were having...I will have to dig it out and re-post. They weren't anything special but maybe something will call to you :)
Okay maybe you won't be as taken by these as I am but these are names that I like and Cam hates and therefore will never be names that I can use. 1: Tucker. That's my brothers name and I've always loved it (plus my brother is a great guy). There are obvious reasons not to use this name, but surprisingly my brother never had that problem when we were growing up.
I also like the names Guy, Ethan and Max.
Good luck! The first name was pretty easy for us but I know in the future it's going to be a lot harder. So happy for you guys and I hope things are going well.
Maybe I have already said this, but I really like the names Cooper and Carter. Good luck!
The only one that popped into my head was one I liked when we were searching for Kaleb's name - it was Keaton. I liked it and knew no one with the name (well except for the actor's last name - Michael Keaton). Good luck lady!
i feel ya. we have the same problem. once you throw out the list of names from people you dislike, names that are WAAAAAYYY too common, it doesn't seem like there's anything left that we like. we will have these sessions where we throw out all these crazy names and just start laughing our heads off... we'll go in themes, and it gets pretty nuts.
one of our biggest hurdles is that john has 5 brothers and one sister all with kids, so between his brothers names, and his like 12 nephews names.... ugh.
AND then of course i'm not a huge fan of the typical bible names, but also don't love the new wave names... so where does that leave me... hmmmmm.
How about Sertor? (a mix of trevor and seantae) that looks soooo fearce kind of like Terminator! Ah Ah Ah
No don't ask me for names... you know better than that!
I wish that i still worked at the women's center - I always had some good Idea's from it! Here's some off the top of my head though: Aiden (sp?), Dane (scotts nephew is named that so I could never use it, but I really like it). Ok thats all i've got right now, but I will think on it a little more and let you know if I'm come up with any!
Well, the boys in my family are: William, Emory, Rowland, Derrek, Dallon, Mark, Greg, Rich, Jordan, Richie, Carter, Jacob, and Carson. I don't really have favorites...but trying watching credits at the end of movies for ideas. Good Luck!
Good idea about the credits of a movie! You can also check out your family history for ideas.
I like weird names: Linus, Clyve, Lewis, Heber. You are welcome to any of them.
So I like Taydem but could never use it. The boys in our fam are Kanyon, Dakota, Taygen, Parker, Ryker, Raistlin, David, Traceton, skyler, Tanner, Kaleb, Kyler, Kurtis, Andy, and Dan. Maybe that helps good luck boy names are hard!
