So shocked I'm having a boy! Need name suggestions, please!

I had a 100% gut feeling that I was having a girl and have so many girl names I love…….but just found out it's a boy - also great! - but no boy names that we love.

I'd like something that sounds nice with my twin's names Owen and Allison. (Our last name is one syllable starting with "Br" so I can't do names like Brian, Brandon, etc.)

I like Gavin, Kevin, Jason, but DH not crazy about any of them.

He likes Clayton, his grandfather's name, but I'm not sure about it….think it would lend itself to a lot of teasing.

Other suggestions, please!Chat Icon

ETA- just to clarify, "Clayton" wouldn't be to honor DH's grandfather, they weren't especially close or anything, it's just where dh got the idea from.

I have a Gavin. I was not sure at first but now live it.

As for teasing cause of name. If kids are going to tease a kid they will do it no matter what. If it's not his name it will be for another reason. Just go with what you like.

Love Henry and Oliver... to go with your twin names. If DD2 was a boy she would have been Nicholas or Henry (I love Oliver, but DH, not so much)
