So here's my problem.
I'm almost 6w pregnant. Due on 09/29/06. I've chosen a baby name (girl) and I can't for the life of me find a boy name..
I like unique boy names for some reason. Unique & old fashioned.Any suggestions? Girl name is Elizabeth Leilani. :]

Don't know if you were looking for the usual pronunciation of Leilani or not. If so, the traditional way to pronounce this Hawaiian name is lay-lah-nee (said at normal speed. If you break it down syllable by syllable, it's leh-ee-lah-nee.)

Believe it or not, there's a baby at the playgroup I sometimes attend named Angus.

A lot of the names I've seen people list are quite trendy. Not all of them, but many.

True old-fashioned boys/mens names (that are not trendy right now) would include: (Disclaimer - I'm not saying I like all of these.)

Alfred
Boris
Burton
Carl
Casper
Charles
Chester
Clifford ("Ford" is a great nickname for that one.)
Elmer
Ernest
Eugene
Floyd
Frank
Frederick
Gary
George
Glen
Hank/Henry (Hank isn't trendy, Henry is right now)
Harold/Harry
Howard
Irving
Jasper
Leonard
Leroy
Lloyd
Milton
Oscar
Otis
Ralph
Roger
Stanley
Theodore
Ulysses
Walter
Willard

That would be such a great and strong name for a boy. One suggestion if this is your first baby. Try to keep your name choices private from your family and real-life friends. You may love something and they might not. Then they'll put a negative spin on the name, but you can bet they won't say anything negative once the baby is born. Good luck.

p.s. I like Walter, but I'm a bit weird that way. :-)
