Don’t like any boy names! Update & new shortlist

:list: Name List

I made a previous post about struggling to find a boy name. Our daughter is called Iris: https://www.reddit.com/r/namenerds/s/AeStxtklAO

Thanks to some amazing responses and further conversations with my husband, our shortlist is currently:

Stephen

Julian

Robin

Aidan

Guy

Louis

Husband also likes, but I’m less keen on:

Henry

James

Jonathan (Jonny)

Would love to hear thoughts/favourites. We are in the UK and some of these names might have different associations in the US/other countries.
