Hi all, I have been browsing through the "Beautiful and Classic Girls Names" thread and nodding my head at just about every name mentioned. Our top choices for a girl are each mentioned several times. Anyway, what would you consider the male equivalents of these names? I have a William and I see names like James, Charles, Edward (all the royal names!) fitting in there... what else would you suggest?

The ones I like, my favourites: Henry Arthur John Isaac Benjamin Jonathan Patrick August Daniel Joel Alexander Vincent Edmund Zachary Michael Luke Anthony I am really REALLY unsure of where classic ends and niche market begins for Bible names. I think I am safe with the ones that got mentioned above? Tentatively would add: Jesse Levi Tobias Reuben Gabriel EDIT: Changed some things around because I'm indecisive like that.

Great topic.... I'll be keeping my eyes on this one. Boys names really are a struggle.
