Boy vs. Names

I just posted a long list of my favorite girl names. I also have a long list of boy names that I love. The names will be in the first comment. I just have them in alphabetical order. I would love it if maybe you all could tell me which are your 5-10 favorites and your 5-10 least favorites and why. Please tell me why you like or dislike each name. The comments really help. Thank you all so much!

The only name I hate on here is Gregory (that’s the name of my dead beat father). I dislike Peter because a friend of mine uses it as a nickname for her partners man bit if you catch my drift. Not a bad name in itself though. I suppose I would eliminate Simon, Todd, and Bryan just because I’d probably use every other name on the list before using these. I also prefer Shawn over Sean. I always pronounce Sean wrong (rhyming with Dean).
I like the rest of the names here, but if I had to pick, my favs are Benjamin, Joshua, Nicholas, and Matthew.

Least favorites:
Peter
Todd
Kevin
Bryan
Shane
Gavin
Scott

I either have a bad association with these (ex-boyfriend, a name that people often mistake my son’s name for, etc) OR they are just too plain/common.

GL!

Top 5:

Duncan - handsome and rugged
Russell - a classic that is great on all ages
Lucas - I love the meaning "light", though it is gaining popularity
Donovan - a nice solid name with good nickname potential (Van, Donnie)
Blake - short and to the point while still being very handsome

Honestly, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with any of these name. Any of them I put in the "least favorite" category would simply be connotations from individuals I’ve known. I don’t think you can go wrong with any of these.

I love these five because they sound strong, very masculine & are classic, timeless names.
Least favorite:
Henry - too old fashion
Weston - too western
Austin - too western
Lucas - too popular & never been a fan
Joshua - too popular & soft sounding to me
Sean - too popular & sounds feminine to me
Devin - sounds feminine & soft to me
Best of Luck!

Favs: Bradley, Evan, Henry, Joshua, Josiah, Shane & Weston.
Besides Henry, Josiah & Weston the others aren’t heard of too often which I think makes them keepers. Henry, Josiah & Weston are just handsome.
