I am having a hard time with boys names. I have so many names for girls that I can't get out of my head...and I have nothing that I feel strongly about for boys.

What do you think of the following names?
And any others you can suggest.

Jake
David
Nicholas (Nick)
Nathan (Nate)
Eli
Zachary (Zach)
Caleb
Gavin
Mason
Justin
Sean
Cole
Henry
Peter
Kian (pn Kee-an)
Max
Oliver
Shane
Miles
Grayson
Sawyer
Grady
Eamon
Brandon
Steven

hate:
Jake - because i've yet to meet one who wasn't a ass. true story, lolz
Grayson - sounds like a butler to me
Sawyer - like Tom?
Grady - because to me it will forever be connected with the character in north & south

Not so fond of Justin, Sean, Cole, Henry, Peter, Max (though might like it with longer name), Oliver, Shane, Sawyer, Grady, Steven.

I really like Peter, Henry, Gavin, and Caleb. I like Jacob better than Jake on its own. David, Nicholas, Nathan, Oliver, Brandon, and Steven are all strong, basic names that I think would work well for any kid.

I guess the only ones I dislike are Grayson and Sawyer, and I don't really care for Shane.

don't like Grady. makes me think of grating or dingy or something. I love one syllable boy names. Sean is good, Justin and Nicholas are great names. Never like Caleb, David and Jacob are also good, and Zachary.

a few of these are at the top of my list (max, oliver) some others that i really like are nate (i prefer nathaniel to nathan), eli (short for elias or elijah), henry, miles and sawyer. a great list, all in all.

I have the exact opposite problem. I love boys' names but there's not many girls' names that I really, really like. I think it has something to do with my desire to only have boys. Haha.

Anyway...out of your list, the only names I don't like are Justin, Brandon and Grayson. Justin & Brandon scream 80s/90s and Grayson has that trendy, made-up, new-age sound to it. Just my personal take.

My faves from the list: Oliver, Henry, Eli, Miles, Caleb.

Other names I like that you may also like:
Gabriel
Elias (nn Eli)
Elliott
Jack
Owen
Jacob
Julian
Jude
Lucas
Zachary
Nolan
Nathanial (nn Nate)
Wesley
Simon
Thomas
