[Opinions] Re: ?'s

"My husband and I have the same dilemma when it comes to the topics of boys names. Do you have any guidelines to narrow the search? Is there anything that is off limits?"
I feel your pain. In the past, DH has said he doesn't really like names that end in N or Biblical names, which does eliminate a lot of names. I don't know if he's being this picky about boy's names because he is really hoping for just daughters or what. LOL

My hubby won't do biblical either! My 1st son from a previous relationship is Elijah, and he doesn't like it. I prefer Elijah over a 'made up' name like Rahine [his name] any day! It also doesn't help that I cannot stand my MIL and she just has to mention that she came up with the name. I was raised in an urban environment and I have met more than one Rahine in many variations.
He likes 'ethnic' names [Javon, Keyshaun] and doesn't mind weird spellings and apostrophes [i.e. L'Vonne], a personal pet peeve of mine. The names he likes are boring to me [ Eric, Devon, Christopher] or just horrible. I also don't have any good choices when it comes to family male names.
Here are some names I like:
Kieran
Kai
Malachi
Micah
Lance
Cameron
Damian
Isaac
Matteo
Reese
* pronounced EH-vah =)
Elijah Morris 6.23.99
Rahine Miguel Lynnwood 6.29.05 [pronounced rah-HEEN]
