I think Anja Rose is short, sweet, and beautiful! Anja Dawn is a close second! :wub:

Here's a list of traditional, Germanic-style boy names that might flow with Kierstyn (if that's what you're still looking for?)...hope this helps!
Alando
Alarik
Aldo
Aldric
Alric (Alrik)
Arik
Aubrey
Branson
Brandt
Dierk
Eldric
Erick/Erich
Garrick
Hendrick
Henrik
Jarrett
Myles
Mylo
Rand
Rocco
Roderick
Tru/True

Thank you... The two middle names Rose and Dawn are my faves as well :)

Thank you for the list of boy names... I swear naming your child has to be one of the hardest first decisions to make. It's a name that will stick with them forever....

Rose, May, and Dawn are SO BEAUTIFUL! Anja's not to my taste at all, though. Maybe:
Aurora
Adrianna
Adrienne
Allison
Abbey
Amy
Ashley
Alicia
Audrey
Annie
Athena
Artemis
Above all, avoid using a monosyllabic name if your last name is already one syllable. The names together will sound VERY abrupt.

Oh, and don't worry. It's always best to pick a name you love, but your child won't have to live with it FOREVER. You could change it, or she/he could.

Lovely name! :wub:

Anja Rose and Anja May are my favorites.

As for German Boys names, google it & a list of suggestions should come up! I promise to post some later :)

Our last name is 3 syllabels long so we are good there...

I have been googling Germanic, Danish, German, Dutch and other European names and having a very hard time. Thank you everyone for your suggestions :)

one of my favorite name sites is name-meanings.com. I'm pretty sure it's got lots of Germanic names on it
