Hi struggling with names for boy.. im half italian and half spanish and my partner doesn’t like any italian name or spanish he says kids will bully him😟

So annoying as he has already 3 kids and mother picked the names.. I don’t want to name him with a name I don’t like or feel close like for me would be strange call him Oisin ..as an example for girls was so easy as many option we agreed like isabella.. but its a boy so what name for boys do you think will be good for both cultures? I tought Luca Leon But not sure I don’t like them too much I love lorenzo i really love that name but he says one day baby boy will be glad with daddy stopping mommy to calling him Lorenzo 😹 so please some ideas?

I love Luca

Enzo Mateo / Matteo Luca Tomas Jakob Christian

@Abbie my partner proposed christian but i have a lot of relatives called like that😹

Change the husband 😝

I love Luca 🥰 Santiago Matthias Mateo Cruz

@Virginia too late😹😹

Lorenzo is nice!!

Stefano

Julian Leo Luca Matteo Frank Christian/Cristian Stefano Enzo Vincent

Names that would work in both cultures: Abel, Adrian, Alix, Arlo, Benjamin, Eli, Elias, Gabriel, George, Hugo, Julian, Leo, Lucas, Nicolas, Oliver, Oscar, Samuel, Sebastian, Roman, Tomas. 💙

Love Leon or even Leo

Could you choose a which could have a more Anglican nickname, which he can use / the child can, as a compromise? So Matteo - Matt/Matty for example. As a side note though, ss a teachers who's class if over 50% not of English heritage (lots of children from a Eastern Europe & Portuga) I've never had a child picked on for their name (at primary at least). And we've had a girl called Mann and a boy called Hurr!

Gabriel

Ok so I proposed Antonio as my grandfather’s name but in italy we call them Tony as short for Antonio.. but he says everybody will called him Anto..as here in ireland Anto is short for antonhy but. I dont really like that nickname at all. So I’ll try to convince him wich i think will not probably work😂 to name the baby just Tony will see..we are almost getting divorce before getting married over the name🤣🤣 He’s too stubborn and me too 😅😅 And also he proposed a lovely name ..irish tough that i never heard before and really original but will see with Tony.

I know he will say no for Tony as i picked Bella for a girl ..but he said Bella was short for Isabella but i just like the name Bella but itself. 🥲🥲🥲 He’s doesn’t really like original names he likes traditional boring names😂😂🥲🥲

Oh blimey, i think we all presumed you were in England or the US. If your partner is Irish then i can imagine this is even harder as some of their names are so beautiful but so different from other English speaking countries! I'm sure eventually you will find one you both love!

I love the name Lorenzo and i doubt he will be seriously made fun of. Luca and Leon are also great name very popular so..

Lorenzo is made fun of in Spanisg, and Enzo rhymes with menso so it’s a no for places with a lot of Spanish speakers
