Cute boys names!

19 replies

Hi everyone! I'm after some cute boy names suggestions?
DS2 is due May. We had our name set but my husband and I have parted ways and I just can't use that name anymore 💔
I really like cute and cuddly boys names. We had decided Boe/Beau. I love the name buddy but husband not keen.... it's the only contender for me at the minute! Can anyone think of any suggestions?
I'm really not into traditional names... I just want something really sweet and cute with a nice meaning :)

We just had a little girl but our boy name we had was calvin.

Sorry you’ve had to go through separation during pregnancy.

I would suggest something that could have a cute nickname but would work into adulthood for your son.

List below are ‘softer’ names with cute nicknames:
Gabriel - Gabe
Reuben - Reubs / Reuby
Benjamin - Benji
Raleigh - Ra / ray
Chester - Chess
Jasper - jazz / jas-y
Isaac - Izzy / Zak

Then perhaps more along the “beau” route:
Leon
Ash

Leo, Ted(dy), Milo, Felix, Dustin (Dusty)

Op I would use your original name as both parents picked it and liked it

1moresurvey · 16/02/2020 20:30

Theo... means divine gift.
Sorry you're going through a tough time at the moment.

I quite like Archie along with some of the other suggestions

Carey!

Hepsibar · 16/02/2020 20:47

I love the name Beau too.

november90 · 16/02/2020 21:12

Thank you everyone! I honestly don't think I can name him Boe anymore, it just doesn't feel right. I feel like Boe was a baby that doesn't exist if that makes sense :(
Nice to see Felix on the list there a couple of times... that's my DS1 name 💗

I'm yet to find out my baby's gender but if we have a second boy I like Kasper Jaxon Jaxon will be middle name

Beau is a lovely name. If your ex is going to be involved with the boys lives it might be nice to keep it, more of a united front when it comes to parenting, a name chosen to father and a baby raised together l, albeit apart. Obviously I don’t know the circumstances and this may be way too much but If it’s an amicable split with no one else involved I’d stick with the name x

Kezmum14 · 17/02/2020 08:48

Together not to father 🙄

Love your DS1 - Felix!

Aww thank you!
At the moment I honestly can't connect to the name. But I still have a couple of months left... just exploring other options!

I like Casper and Quinn... I like teddy and Marley too but they are quite common in my area so not sure I want to use them!

Cute and cuddly may be fine when baby comes. He may not thank you at 35 though..... Or 75.

november90 · 17/02/2020 19:09

I don't think there's anything wrong with being cute and cuddly at any age and that's exactly what I'll be teaching my boys! ❤️
