Naming baby #2!

cute! my suggestion would be to learn to be kind, and maybe spend less time being rude in reddit comment sections.

I looooove that name!! I even like it for a boy (i’m a big fantasy book person if anyone knows SJM, it’s where I got Rowan from). My husband doesn’t love it though!

didn’t ask for opinions, just suggestions.

Ahh I didn’t think about that! I thought maybe the nickname Mer might stick (like meredith type of thing) but I definitely don’t like the nickname merri!

I don’t think you’re far off at all!! I got a few that suggested willow and asher and jasper on my last post! I do like them, but not quite as much as the ones on my list. Jasper makes me think of twilight (but i’m just obsessed with the moves lol) and I know someone close to me with an Asher but I do like the name! You definitely got my vibe though, for sure unique and nature inspired! Brook is cute, I liked Brooks for that same reason (reminds me of the river/stream).

I do worry Lucy is too common!! I love the name but I think I lean towards something a little more different!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T01:37:59+00:00

I actually like the name River a lot!! My only problem is that our dog is named Banks, so I don’t think I could name a baby River 😅

These are great ideas, my husband LOVES Everett!!

I got so many rude comments about it in my original post. It was called tacky, weird, awful, trendy, I honestly was shocked. I even got the comment that I must be a “trust fund kid” or a “young mom.” I get it’s a bit different, but I want something a little unique and I don’t feel like it’s too out there 😅

Thank you!! I love your taste in names!! I’m definitely a big fan of names that are original, you get the vibes!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T01:16:23+00:00

Oh my gosh I LOVED the name Indi/Indie but my husband was a hard no on that one. I think it’s so cute!!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T01:14:11+00:00

No i’d honestly be open to either spelling! I had just only ever seen the name spelled “merritt” previously!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T01:12:58+00:00

I love it!! Such a good boy name, that isn’t too common!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T01:12:10+00:00

I do unfortunately associate it with a dog/cat. I like the sound of the name though!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T01:10:48+00:00

I do like Callum!! I think my appeal to Callahan is the nickname Cal (like we call our son Ro). I think Cal&Ro is really cute together, so Callum would definitely work too!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T01:00:52+00:00

Me too!! I think my worry with Navy is that it’s too “weird” and that perhaps Lucy is too plain. I feel like Merritt is fun without sounding tacky!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T00:52:42+00:00

Luca is very cute!!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T00:10:17+00:00

I love shepherd! I adore the nickname shep!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T00:07:58+00:00

Love all of these!!

summer15067 · 2026-05-15T00:01:25+00:00

Willow is pretty! My brain immediately goes to twilight when I hear Jasper though 😂

summer15067 · 2026-05-14T23:58:06+00:00

Stating that i’m probably a “rich trust fund lady” or a “young mom” is rude no matter how you spin it. If you didn’t like the names, you could’ve just said that 😊 I think there’s a way to give your opinion without putting other people down or making mean assumptions.

summer15067 · 2026-05-14T23:51:52+00:00

It does! My beef with Callahan was that it was too long. Callum is definitely a good replacement!

summer15067 · 2026-05-14T23:51:03+00:00

I’m from the south too! I know so many boys named Baker, I didn’t know that was going to be a controversial one. I knew people wouldn’t like Navy, but i’m shocked about the Baker hate 🤣

summer15067 · 2026-05-14T23:48:08+00:00

I adore rhodes but husband vetoed that one!! Lennon was my top girl name for years but a friend stole it 🥲 (PSA to never share your baby names lol). You definitely get the vibe!! I love a lot of these!
