I CANNOT for the life of me agree with my husband on a name for one of our twin boys. I look through books but for some reason my mind just goes blank within two pages. Thank you, pregnancy, haha. I'm just getting rather nervous, because I've come up with tons of names I'll even settle for and he dislikes him. The last one being Elliot, which he didn't like.

I'm sure you're all sick of me, but I'm at my wits end. I don't have any person in my life who is as interested in baby names as I am. I get the "Caleb, Kaiden, Aiden" suggestions usually which isn't my style.

I'm just wanting a nice male name that isn't super popular. I really don't want my kid's to share their name with three other children in their class. So, I'm up for any suggestions or names that appeal to you. I'm open to anything. :)

For reference, one of the twin's is Anders Joseph. Our last name is Dealy, pronounced Daily.

I know you probably hate me about now. lol I need to find baby name friends in my area.

Awww.. no, this is what this community is for, it's nice to be able to help in naming real babies for once!

Okay, i tried really hard to pick out names you might not have thought of or skimmed over. Your husband sounds incredibly frustrating!
So is baby A named but not baby B, or have you not yet attached Anders Joseph to either twin?

Thanks a lot :) I always enjoy your thoughts on names, as well as your style. I LOVE Finlay, and hopefully he will too.

[tryyingtoevolve.livejournal.com]

just as a friendly suggestion, i'd spell it finley. i know finlay is an accepted spelling, but as a lindsay who is CONSTANTLY referred to as "lind-SAY" by people who think they are sooooo funny, i'm sure your son would prefer not to be called "fin-LAY" by those same people.

love the name, btw, and i love finn as a nn.

[brunhildevalkyr.livejournal.com]

I'm a Lindsay too... and I HATE people calling me lind-SAY. I actually switched doctors one time because she wouldn't stop calling me lind-SAY after I corrected her like 100 times.

[kandeekiss.livejournal.com]

LMAO I'm the same way. I like, randomly poll my friends on baby names... even when I'm NOT pregnant. It's so sad. As for suggestions:

Edison
Brenton
Finley
Cullen
Heath

[yukonsally]

I think Cullen and Anders go well together.

I'll just give you a list of boy names that I like, that I think would go well with the other twins name. It seems as though you don't like super traditional or popular names.

Whoops I meant Cyrus.

[http://users.livejournal.com/___heyvanity/]

Oh and are you using Anders in relation to In Flames?

[pale-september.livejournal.com]

I heard it on television one day when I was visiting my Dad and really liked it. I called him and he was watching either Meshuggah or In Flames, and said he really liked that name. So in a sense, yes. :)

[http://users.livejournal.com/___heyvanity/]

Nice. I know a guy who is obsessed with In Flames and wanted to name his son Anders after the lead singer.

There aren't really that many names I'm super fond of, but here are my favourite boys' names:

Felix

I've followed your saga, but not the responses to it... so I'm sorry if I repeat names here:

Kenneth (a good friend of mine, with a classic name, easily nicknamed and NO ONE shares it with him)
Bram (A Dutchie name, maybe. Short for Abraham [Abram] Not really nicknameable, but it doesn't need it)
Malo (MAH-lo from memory. It's the name of a French boy I know, and I think his parents named him after a tiny village which was itself named after a saint.)
Giles (Another friend, named after another saint, we've nicknamed him 'Gillies' - but it's another name that no one else has.)

Lol, my parents couldn't decide on a name for my litte brother till he was about a week old, the hospital kept calling. At first we just called him Monty after the doctor who helped, Montgomery, but now his name is Patrick. I actually like Monty better lol. Ok umm.. Zachary, Austin, Kyle, Kyson, Kory, Trent, William, Matthew, Levi..

[plaidpineapple.livejournal.com]

p.s. I think you need to ask your husband to sit down with a baby name book, come up with HIS favorites, and see which you like best. I have a really, really picky husband, and this worked (somewhat) with us.

Just wanted to say, as someone said above, that's what this community's for, so don't worry about it! I've been following the developments and voting and suggesting where possible, and I'm actually very interested after all this time to see what name you'll choose in the end.

I really like classic names, so most of the names I really love are fairly popular right now. But a few that I can think of that aren't in the top 500, at least...

Addison (very high on girl's list now, though)
Cullen
Edmund
Finian
Finnegan
Finton
Ford
Gilbert
Ira
Kieran
Leander (probably too similar to Anders, though)
Leonard
Lewis
Marlow
Odin
Orion
Pierce
Penn
Randall
Rustin
Sully
Teague
Upton
Uriah
Vance
Vann
Willem
Xan
Yale
Yule

[amspeck-myworld.livejournal.com]

I know it can be difficult to find a name that suits both parents; it great to hear how the process is going for you guys!

Ideas: Anders and...

Theodor
Stigander
Sindri
Per
Anton
Ansgar
Dominic
Anicetus
Franklin
Frederick
Trajan, Traian
Varian, Varrick
Aristides

Middle names similar to Joseph:
Benjamin
Eben
Eran
Amidor
Ezekiel
Jeriah
Naaman
Reuel

Best of luck!

How about something else Scandinavian?
Finn, Lars, Leif, Emil, Ulrik, or my favorite: Mads
