Boy's name, your opinion

KatieGuest ·
Ladies, I have a question. I know that a name is extremely personal and what one person finds beautiful, another might not. Still, my husband and I are having a really hard time finding a nice name for our son. On top of that, we live in London (my husband is English), and the name needs to be easy to pronounce in England as well as in the Netherlands, because we might move back someday, and it’s handy if my family can pronounce it too. I also think the name should be somewhat unique, but not too weird in the Netherlands—I have no idea what the current popularity of names is like here. I don’t want a name that half of the Netherlands has, but I also don’t want one that’s super weird or hard to pronounce in the Netherlands!!!! Or maybe even ordinary... Can you help me? In England, this is at least a nice and easy-to-pronounce name:
The name (the only one so far!!) that we both like is: we’re thinking about "Ethan"
I’d love to hear your opinions.
Katie

    Ethan is indeed nice!!
    What do you think of Eden?

    And I also have: Sem, Elijah, Delsin, Willow, Bowen, Shadow and Ziggy.
    If it had been a boy, it would have been "Zion" for us. It means "Symbol".
    All of them sound English though..

    I think Ethan is absolutely lovely!
    What do you think of James or Lenn?
    They're high on my list too ;-)

    Hi AnnaRebecca, thanks for your other two names. We were also considering James, but we still prefer Ethan!

    Thank you!
