Just for fun, let’s play a game.
You are about to have your 4th baby boy and you need a name.
- You want this name to not be able to be made into a nickname.
- You want this name to not end with the letters -in, -an, -en.
- You prefer that this name is somewhat uncommon, but not weird.
So, what did you come up with?
And if this doesn’t work, I’m currently accepting sponsors for my baby’s name. Just kidding. A little.

Why no nicknames????? How about Chance?
If my daughter had been a son, my top choices were Chase, Oliver (could be nicknamed), Aragorn (weird, my husband vetoed), and Clark. Good luck!
Archer
Miller
Jack
Ash
Henry
Carter, Clark, Henry, Joel, Jesse, Hosea, Amos, Asher
I desperately wanted to name one of our boys Atticus but my husband vetoed. Sigh. Is Asher common where you live? I always liked that one too. You’re also welcome to use our third son’s name: Micah. I also liked Enoch and Lief. But maybe those are all too weird? Good luck!
My friend just had a baby Connor! I think that’s a great name. Also like Carter.
Grant is a cute name!
I love it! I think my husband had the same requirements, haha. Here’s some from my classroom that I’ve liked over the years…
Nieko, Theo, Damien, Jude, Caleb, Mitch, Brent, Hunter, Ace, Tyler, Raffi
My dad’s name is Dane, which would have been our boy’s name….if we didn’t only have girls!
Oliver, Grayson, Gabriel, Liam
I love Clarke, Jared or Cliff
I LOVE the name Oliver
Riley
Quinn
Elliot
Phoenix
Milo
Brooks
Liam, Xavier, hhmmmm… not sure what else. Good luck!
Cade.

Madison.
Had to comment again because I just heard a unique name – friend of mine named her son Tesher.
Cade
Colt
Miles
Everett
Lance
Chase
Kendall
Jack
Asher
My son’s name is Cole – common enough to be in some Pottery Barn Kids catalogs, but not too common. Easy to say and spell, no nick name (although I admit that his sister sometimes calls him “Coley”).
If I had a another son I’d name him Noble.
Scott – can’t be shortened and there is not one other Scott in my children’s schools
I have no suggestions.. I’ve already been disqualified by the in, an en lol
Cooper.
Or Oliver.
