It is a truth universally acknowledged that every girl has a list of baby names somewhere on them. Whether it's written on a piece of paper, in their journal, on their phone in the 'notes' section, or in their head, they have them. Of course, it changes from time to time, and some names get bumped off the list as times change, but the list always stays.
Since almost every girl on this earth has a list of future baby names, I wondered if guys had the same. So I asked 20 guys if they did. These were their responses:
1. "Oh yeah, I definitely got a list. Leonardo, Leo for short, Jay, Aslan, Obey (pronounced oh-bee), Astro, Malikai, Kirby, Stormy, Swayzee (Sway), Landon, Rhett Lee after Thomas Rhett, and then a weird one to throw in would be Charleine (pronounced char-lee). That way all the other names sound great compared to Charleine." – Age 20
2. "Only got one. Luke. After Star Wars.” – Age 21
3. “Yeah, I got some. Nixon, Maveric, Beau, Carter, Maisie, and Blakley.” – Age 23
4. “So for guys I like the name Derek, Tony and Kyle, for girls I like Rebecca, Skyler, and Kierra.” – Age 23
5. “I’ve never made a list of baby names lol. But I always joked with my mom I’d name my first daughter Mirage.” – Age 19
6. “I currently have a list of boy names (I want a girl really bad but I don’t know what I would want her name to be). My first son would be named Zion James. Zion as the place where God sought His refuge in God, and James was my grandfather’s name. My second son would be named Marvin Vincent. Marvin, because I love Marvin Gaye and Vincent is me and my father’s middle name.” – Age 22
7. “What?” – Age 16
8. “Autumn for a girl, August, and Ezra for boys.” – Age 21
9. “I personally don’t have a list of names because I’ve always thought it would be cool to name my kids when I see them when they’re born. But I also know that a lot of girls have lists they’ve compiled for years so my future wife’s list will probably be a lot better than my own.” – Age 20
10. “I would name my boy, Girl, and my girl, Boy.” – Age 20
11. “Autumn or Nova, depending on her being blonde or brunette. And if it were a boy probably George and Jack.” – Age 20
12. “I thought of Jay and Sierra. Those are nice.” – Age 22
13. “My last name would be changed to Bell and my first child’s name would be Taco. No middle name.” – Age 20
14. “For family reasons I have to do a first name that starts with and E and a middle name E....” – Age 21
15. "I picked out 2 girl names and 2 boy names with middle names already. Connor LeRoy and Jason Scott for boys. Madison Marie and Natalie Rayanne for girls!" – Age 21
16. "I want a boy so he can carry on his name but that’s the only name I care about." – 23
17. "I've had the name Rowdy picked out since I was 13." – Age 30
18. "I've had my children's names picked out since I was in high school. Charlotte for a girl & Ashton for a boy." – Age 23
19. "I like the names Eden, Paris, and Jon." – Age 20
20. "I love the name Olivia and Phillip (my late dad’s name)." – Age 26
21, "I have a list: Ilene (so she can say "I lean on the Lord," Kyree, Sweetbook, Malique, Isaiah, Kaleidoscope."
