Daniel have an ongoing list of boy and girl names that we like, but the boy names seem to be a challenge for us. That is where you come in. Please send us your ideas!
We have some criteria:
1) Two syllables or less (we might be open to three, but prefer names that don't result in shortened nicknames)
2) Pairs up well with our last name: No names that start with "F" or end in and "ie" sound. (Frankie Fraley is out)
3) Try to avoid names in the top 100 list.
4) 'Hippie' and nature-inspired names are a plus.

I have no idea if they are on the top 100 list or not. I'll leave that research up to you! Love the photo blog idea from the cousins. Natalie has one of those camera's and loves it too!
Boy Names:
The one we didn't use cause we had a girl: Ryan
Emmett
Oliver
Angus
Malcolm
Aiden
Callum
I'll send more if i think of more.
With Quinn, we considered Sage; with Porter we considered Isaac. Angus was always Angus.
A woman in town always thinks Porter's name is Cooper. I happen to love Moses (if my nickname weren't Mo with family, I'd have campaigned for it with Quinn).
I have the Baby Name Wizard. You're free to borrow it. It lists names for brothers of Hazel as:
Waldo
Hardy
Julius
Theo
Homer
I'm mad for this topic! The baby wizard voyager online is really fun.
these are my favs, all have a meaning relevant to tree - strong, enduring, majestic
Elan
Ewan
Linden
Oren
Tanner
or meaning strong
Brayan
Garrison
Ryker
