Trying to come up with some boys names. We like Hudson but not 100%. Really not fans of ‘traditional’ names like William, Oliver, Thomas etc. and prefer something a bit more ‘modern’ but not silly.

Thanks!

Depends what you mean by modern. Some trendy names that will date include some Old Testament names like Ezra -so they are old and yet modern.
If you don’t mean the current crop of OT names, maybe some surname names.
Harvey
Fletcher
Evan
Ellis
Franklin

@daisypond yes I know exactly what you mean! I’m trying not to be offensive but basically not ‘traditional’/ordinary type names. I don’t know how else to put them. You’re right though the Old Testament names have a fresh feel to them nowadays!
