I suggested Augustus/Augustan and DH thinks it’s too common.


Common? Who on earth do you hang out with that you know more than one Augustus?


I have an Augusta and I agree that all variations are too popular!

Orion Michael is a nice compromise

Could use the nickname Ry. Or you take his list and he takes yours then you pick the top 3. Then draw straws and whoever wins gets to pick one of the 3 names. If this is any indication of how you guys are going to handle parenting conflicts (and there will be something that comes up), you're in trouble.

He seems to like unique names -- I can respect that! My husband wanted a simple western name (his culture) instead of one reflecting my culture name. we ended up with names that are so popular right now. while they fit my children, it's frustrating to say their names and 12 heads turn. My own name is unique and prompts questions and conversations. I like that.

Would he like any of these?

Zachariah
Xavier
Mariner -- thinking along the lines of Odyseus
Donatello
Raphael
Michaelangelo
Pablo - haha, you see where I'm going
Victor
Hugo
Lucien
Renzo

dp Why are we suggesting that we use the dad's names? They are really awful.

I really like your dhs names. They’re unique and have pizazz. You just have to make sure your family can pull them off. For instance, Mike and Jennifer don’t have a Odysseus.

Keep searching name books. I named both of my kids on day 7. No worries. No one cared except our parents who stressed us out.
