I like the ones I left in the list, Grayson, Griffin, and Oliver are my favourite. I find Cohen and Rohan interesting, I think I might like Rowen a bit better. Is Rohan pronounced row-han like hand or row-hon?

I like them in this order:
Caleb-lovely, ages well, adorable on a little boy
Nathaniel-ditto
Matthias-nice classic name and uncommon too!
Elias-same as Matthias
Elijah-a great name that ages well
Noah-very popular, but still a good name that ages well
Oliver-a bit older style, but still lovely
Owen-sounds ok
Rylan-sounds ok
Isaiah-sounds ok
Kieran-a nice Irish name
Brennan-same as Kieran
Nolan-sounds ok

I don’t like (but still in order of preference):
Kylan-sounds like you mixed a bunch of names together
Grayson-too dull...no one wants to be called "gray"
Griffin-misspelt Gryphon
Anderson-a surname, however Andy is cute (better with Andrew though)
Davis-again, a surname, but Davey is cute (better with David though)
Rohan-sounds like a drug
Hendrix-while Hendrik is nice, Hendrix just makes me think of Jimi Hendrix and that you must be obsessed with him to name your son after him
Cohen-a surname and unflattering IMO

To answer people’s questions/comments

I think Rohan can be pronounced either way but for us I think it would be Row-han (not hon). It’s certainly not the name of a drug, but is the name of one of Bob Marley’s sons. It is an alternative spelling to the Irish Rowen/Rowan and is also a Hindi name.

Hendrix - I do love Jimi Hendrix but really just like the sound of the name more so than being obsessed with him.

I dislike the nn’s Andy and Davy. Davis is a family surname on my side of the family.

Thanks for the input everyone!

Anderson-Cute but needs a nn, since you dont like andy as a nn what about anders?
Brennan- its nice but i feel like its missing the "d" sound.
Caleb- cute for a little boy but ages well.
Cohen- diffrent but nice, not sure how i feel about cohen john though.
Davis- too lastnameish
Elias- personally not a fan but nn Eli would be fine.
Elijah- ditto.
Grayson- love it, its my sons middle name but its spelled "Gracin"(my maiden name)
Griffin- its a great name but it doesnt work with john.
Hendrix- love it
Isaiah-no
Kieran- thats (KEE-ran) right?? its nice but i dont think it works
Kylan- its great as long as its KAI-lan and not KILL-an.
Matthias- ive never really been able to picture calling a kid matthias, its just way too serious, but with nn matt it would be fine.
Nathaniel-great name, especially nathaniel john. they sound good together.
Noah- great name but noah john is way too short, it just doesnt sound right.
Nolan- wonderful name.
Oliver- cute and ages well
Owen- no offence but when i picture an owen he’s always on the chubby side.
Rohan- rohan john?? are you trying to rhyme??
Rylan- i stronly dislike this name, perhaps ryler?

hope this helps

Yes I like Anders for a nn
Although I like Brennan I’m not a big fan of Brendan
Kieran is Kee-ran/Keer-an -
Kylan would definitely be KAI-lan, not Kill-an
For Matthias I would go with the nn Matty although I’m sure he’d be called Matt too and hate Matty once he was a teen
As for Rohan John I wondered if it was too rhymey but it’s Ro-han (2 syllables) - it is close, but not actually rhyming.

Thanks for the feedback
