DD is Emily and we are having a boy this summer. We like classic names but not too old fashioned. For some reason, we have a hard time coming up with boys' names and cannot find one that we absolutely love. Thanks in advance! |
What classic boy's name wouldn't go with Emily?
OK, Emmett wouldn't go. All the rest would. So, forgetting about big sister, which boys' name are you liking but not loving? |
Franklin
Benjamin Philip David I'd just avoid names that end in the same sound, like Gregory. |
Andrew |

I am Emily and this is my brother’s name. |
Nicholas
Andrew James |
George
Arthur Rufus Oliver James - are the first few names that came to mind but really anything goes (except another Em- name) |
+1! I have an Andrew Nicholas who is 5. I also love James. Andrew has been my favorite male name for as long as I can remember. I think it goes really well with Emily, as do the two other suggestions. |
Why does the boy's name have to have anything to do with Emily? |
Some great suggestions! Anything classic that has never fallen out of usage will go nicely with Emily. In addition to the suggestions above, you might also consider:
William Alexander Daniel Thomas Samuel Lucas David Joseph Caleb Elliot |
Alexander
Benjamin David Jacob Joseph Andrew Paul Scott Reid Noah |
Literally anything as Emily is the most basic name out there. |
Meant to say, I know lots of Emilys and these are some of their brothers' or partners' names so in my mind they are names that "go together" with Emily. |
