Boy names?

[Congratulations]

Also, I don't wear ruffled shirts very often.

And whyever not?

You know, you have a point. I am going to buy some ruffled and/or frilly shirts right now, for to showcase my masculinity and general fortitude.

Hi JessieK.
How about Cade Alexander? Joey & Cade sounds good together and Cade party of three works too!
Raven

Is that pronounced "kay-dee" or "kade"

Sorry, the first is too much like "Katie" (for teasing purposes) and the second one sounds a bit harsh to my ears.

The name Cade Alexander sounds much nicer when said together.

I think Jessie is going to come up with a really nice name regardless of what offerings we throw her way!


You could go retro-hippy, and name him Sky or Rain. I'm being silly now.

I don't wear them for religious reasons. I just wanted to know your reasons. Please don't wear them just because I said so.

Some of my favorite names for boys include:

Aidan
Caomhín
Cathal
Colm
Eoin
Somhairle

Of course, with most of those, the poor kid would run into major pronunciation issues....

Éamon was almost a Cathal. I really love that name, but I agree that here in the US you'll more than likely run into problems with pronunciation. You should hear them with Séamus! It's usually "SEE mus" which, if you aren't familiar with the name, would be logical. And Éamon is usually "EE mon"

Eoin is also right up there for me, but most people wouldn't understand where we got "Owen" from "Eoin"

I have a friend named Eamon (no ' on the E) and people call him Aymon. Is that right?

That's right, though to be strictly correct, there should be a fada (accent mark) on the "E." Most Americans don't bother, though...same with "Sean" which should be spelled "Seán" (without the fada, it's pronounced "shan" rather than "shawn," and means "old" in Irish!).

Oh, it's much too late, now. Your careless wordplay has left me in no position to back out. I must press forward with the ruffled shirt-wearing. I shall wear my ruffled shirts, and when people say to me, "Congratulations, how it that you're wearing a ruffled shirt?" I shall say, "It was the CRANBERRY what told me to!"

I do hope you're satisfied.

At least you've a future playing at Cuban weddings.

Apparently Millard and Onan aren't good ideas. What about Basil?

[fearfaoin]

I don't wear them for religious reasons.

It boggles the mind.

"Thou shalt not ruffle thy collars like the common pirate."

Is it like the Mennonite ban on chrome because it's pridefully flashy?

[ravensdream]

Is that pronounced "kay-dee" or "kade" .

It is pronounced like aid with a k in front Kaid. It is after a Celtic warrior.

Somehow I just can't imagine looking at a sweet little baby and saying "Hi, Basil" . I think of Basil Rathbone and Basil Fawlty. It seems like a name for tall, skinny guys.

Sort of like Monroe is a name for short, fat, mustachioed men.

I know a dozen people named Jared, Jarret, Jerrett, Jerret, Jaret, Jarrid, or somesuch. You should name him that. It seems very customizable.
