Boy names...

[popminx.livejournal.com]

We're having a boy! i'm having a hard time finding a name that i love. My maiden name was Williams so i like the idea of naming our baby named William. i'm just concerned that it's too common. i also like Xander, but i'm afraid that it sounds too weird with my last name (pronounced like sand-shaper). Please feel free to suggest names inspired by my list. Help!



PS. i'll worry more about middle names once i have a first name picked out.

Is the last name pronounced Sands-chap-er or Sand-shaper?

I would never use Xander as a name but I would possibly use it as a nickname for Alexander.

William - Good name.
Emmett - Do not like at al.
Xander - Don't like at all.
Wyatt - Like a lot.

If you're concerned about William being too common I can offer a few different ideas. You can always use William or even Williams as a middle name.

Aaron, Addison, Alec, Braxton, Brett, Bryant, Christopher, Connor, Corran, Dane, Darren, Deacon, Declan, Dominic, Dorian, Ezra, Elijah, Ethan, Evan, Everett, Gavin, Graham, Grant, Ian, Jason, Jensen, Joel, Keiran, Lane, Lennon, Levi, Mason, Maxwell, Morgan, Nathan, Nero, Nicholas, Nikolai, Owen, Quinn, Rory, Ryan, Sawyer, Scott, Seth, Shane, Shaun, Travis, Trent, Tucker, Tyler, Tyson, Vance, Warren, Zachary.

it's Sand-shaper... like a person who shapes sand is a sand-shaper. Thanks the suggestions!
