Out of those three names I'd go Sebastian, but I'm not crazy about any of them. Adrian sounds dated (very Baby Boom generation) and Conrad is just vile, no shade.

I've always liked Nathan or Nathanael for a boy's name, or Jason or maybe Clayton.

Giselle and Claire are lovely though, good choice with those

Congratulations btw Smile

You can hardly ever get anyone to agree on names. None on your choices appeal to me, but there isnt anything wrong with any of them. Just don't name him Egbert, Herbert, Valentine, Humphrys, or anything else likely to get him laughed at (run them past a committee of ten year old boys). Make sure the initials don't spell anything either first middle last or first last middle (my poor husband is spa one way and sap the other). And don't make up a fancy spelling he'll have to correct for the rest of his life. Bonus points for choosing a name with good nicknames, double points for one everyone can spell, and triple bonus points if you choose a usable middle name in case he can't stand the first one or someone gives a cartoon character that name or some such.

Gord, Keith, Scot/Scott, Bo/Beau.

Agreed, it depends on last name.

Boy or girl, pick something that when shortened down to one syllable does not sound stupid. Like aslan.

I've always suspected kids grow up reflecting their names.

If your boy is Conrad, he will be serious and successful. (He won't stay religious).

Giselle will be beautiful but will leave school in year 11.
(This is Science statistics talking).

If you want your girl to grow up beautiful AND smart, please name her:


No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

For girls, a friend of mine suggested the judge test. If you can say Judge _____ or Dr. ____, without giggling or rolling your eyes, it's a good name for a woman who wants to be respected in the world. Judge Kitty, Missy, Dolly, Georgiana, or Francesca, don't cut it. My husband added that it shouldn't sound like she waits tables at a truck stop or stars in blue movies either.

Not to be an ass, but if you're considering Sebastian, Adrian, or Conrad you might as well go for it and choose Tucker or Percy.

In honor of the Air Force, I suggest Hellfire.
