At 31 weeks we know our new bubba will be a boy and are struggling with names. Our DD is 2.5 named Lauren We like names that are "normal" and not too out there, with common spellings. But also nowhere near the top of popular lists Surname is F#s*er - like holiday village on NSW coast. A list of names i like: Kayden/Hayden Declan Damien Brady/Brody/Bradley Bailey Jordan/Julian/Jeremy Dylan Blake Ethan/Evan Travis Cameron Ideas, Thoughts other suggestions all happily accepted lol

I really like the name Lauren, FWIW! My favourites from your list are Julian and Cameron, I would possibly try to avoid an 'n' ending but it's obviously what you both like. Jeremy, while not one of my favourites, sounds good with Lauren. Ditto for Brady, Brody and Travis. Other ideas: Henry Marcus Callum Patrick Edward

Kayden/Hayden - really dislike Declan - nice Damien - ok Brady/Brody/Bradley - really dislike Bailey - ok but it doesn't seem like the type of name that would suit a grown up Jordan/Julian/Jeremy - all nice Dylan - lovely Blake - great Ethan/Evan - both nice Travis - nms Cameron - nice My favourites are Blake, Julian and Cameron and I think Blake would be the best with Lauren because of the two -n endings. Other ideas: Luke Max Benjamin Edward Samuel Jude Jacob Ryan Christopher Felix Joshua Harry Isaac Alexander

Kayden/Hayden- Kayden is ok, Hayden is good Declan- lovely Damien- lovely Brady/Brody/Bradley- love Brady, the other two are both ok Bailey- ok Jordan/Julian/Jeremy- Jordan is fine, Julian is lovely, I dislike Jeremy Dylan- lovely Blake- lovely Ethan/Evan- love Ethan, not so keen on Evan Travis- ok Cameron- nice With Lauren I would probably go for Declan, Julian, Blake or Ethan. You've got lots of nice ones though. Suggestions: Lauren and Andrew Lauren and Jacob Lauren and Isaac Lauren and Oliver Lauren and Alexander Lauren and Mitchell Lauren and Eamon Lauren and Connor Lauren and Oscar Lauren and Noah Lauren and Thomas Lauren and Timothy Lauren and Miles Lauren and Darcy Lauren and Samuel Lauren and Harrison Lauren and Hamish Lauren and Patrick Lauren and Adam Lauren and Dean Lauren and Christopher Lauren and Marley Lauren and Daniel

Kayden/Hayden - Not a huge fan, of the two I'd pick Hayden but my favourite of this rhyme-family is definitely Aidan with two A's. Declan - Love. Damien - Like. Brady/Brody/Bradley - Dislike, feels very '80s. Bailey - All the Baileys I know are girls? Jordan/Julian/Jeremy - Jordan is unisex but I don't mind that. Julian is really nice and my favourite of the three. Jeremy is... fine. Dylan - A bit '80s but I like it anyway. Blake - Dislike Ethan/Evan - Not a fan of either but especially not Evan. Travis - Please no. Cameron - Love if you say it with at least 2.5 syllables? My other suggestions would be: Aidan Aaron Bram Callum Corbin Connor Eli Emmett Ezra Jesse Jared Joel Owen
