HelpRe: This or that (all boys)
in reply to a message by kudriashkajo
Rigby - Rigby = The Beatles, Wrigley = gum. Though Wrigley sounds nice too.
Quinton - I like Quincy better on a girl. On a boy it feels a little limp. Not to mention I adore Quentin.
Cadell - Odell is kind of cool in a hipsterish way. But it's still a little to "hillbilly" sounding for my taste. Cadell has less baggage in my mind.
Elam - you're nailing all my favorites ;) Aram is nice too but I know one, and only one, so he's all I'll ever think of. That and I'm just really drawn to any boys name where "E" can be a nickname.
Emery - I like Avery ok too but again, I default to "E" ;)
Callahan - Calloway is all golf club to me (Callaway)
Callahan - Gallagher is all 'Oasis.' Noel Gallagher is quite a character
Evander - I like both. But Everett is the name of HS classmates son so I consider it off limits and my SOs name is Evan Andrew so Evander is an easy like.
Finn - they're both too insubstantial on their own, I think, but Finn is at least sort of handsome. Flynn is thin.... and phlegmy.
Miles - Giles it too, pompous, or something. Plus Milon ("MY-lun") nns has been a love of mine for awhile.
Lachlan - I'm not a huge fan of either, and I tend to like "Link" better than "Lock" but Lachlan feels sturdier to me. Lincoln doesn't feel masculine OR feminine... It's in no mans land.
Mateo - I love Mak, but I also like Teo. I'm basing this one mostly on appearance. Makaio just looks cold and prickly.
Monroe - LOVE this. Murdoch could be cool for nn Doc but it's such a heavy surname I have a hard time seeing it translate. And the "murd" parts takes my mind straight to murder.
Roman - like Lachlan it just seems sturdier somehow. Rowan is nice too. I like the botanical connection.
Tiago - I might sure on pronunciation of Tadeo but I like Iago and Iagan so Tiago seems ok.
Josias - I pretty much like any name that results in "Si/Cy" for a boy. I really want to like Joash, I'm just never convinced of pronunciation- is it "JO-ash", "jo-ASH", is it equally stressed, like "jo-ash" or is is more blended, like "JOE-SH"
