Boy Names That Start W/ 'A'

Congrats on your newest baby boy! My husband has the best "A" name in the book in my opinion. His name is Asher, I think Aiden and Asher sound very nice together. I like that they both have 2 syllables too. It's also not as common as Alex and Austin, etc. Good luck on choosing! Let us know what you decide!

I'm very fond of Asher, but that's probably because that's my youngest son's name. Asher is Hebrew, and it has a wonderful meaning!!! It means happy or blessed. I'm a firm beliver in speaking positive blessings over my children, so if you look at it that way you'd be calling him happy or blessed when you said his name!!!!

We needed an "A" name, too to stay in the family
Our son AJ is Andrew James; his great grandfathers, both called AJ were Arleigh James and Annas Johannas...best...K

Hi K.,

I've always like the name Austin. I think Austin Michael is a great name. Hope this helps.

Thanks,

C.

My sister went the 'A' route. She has a 7 y.o. boy, Alexander; a 4 y.o. boy, Avery; and a 3 y.o. girl, Anderson.
My 10 y.o. son thinks Avery's a girl's name and of course Anderson is androgynous too since there's Anderson Cooper on CNN.

HTH,
P

I've always loved the name Adrian for a little boy, and "Aiden and Adrian" sounds nice together. Just an idea! :)

I have always liked Arlys-you can do different spellings-but that's the little brothers name on Old Yeller! I had actually considered it for my 2nd son. Also, Adrian, and Avery are great to go with Aiden. Let us know what you decide!

Hi Krisiti. I too am outnumbered at my house, w 3 sons, Erik-18yrs, Austen-16 yrs, Dalton-13yrs on Sat., my husb Benjy, my dog-male Brodie. To move on to your quest, think of names that you kind of like and see if you can't change it around a little to start it w an "A". We gave all of our boys a family middle name, Erik Charles-my day, Austen James-my bro-in-law who has always been like a dad to me since mine passed away when I was 11, Dalton Lee-for husb. family-all or most of the males have this middle name. I always tried to remember they would have this name for the rest of thier lives and if it could be made fun of, because we all know some kids can be cruel. I have a new nephew due June 1 and he will be named Daison, how about dropping the D and naming him AISON KADE?? I had talked about Dathan w her, you've already had Athan suggested, how about Athan Elliot? Alton, Aspen?

Well anyway, I hope this helps and good luck w you and the new baby.

Best wishes,
L.

There are a lot of beautiful names suggested to you. Try the 'yelling both names' exercise out loud. You might be surprised ! Be sure the 2nd name sounds different from the first, practical reasons, as well as making a distinction between the 2 kids (i.e. Adrien/Caden/Aidan/Jaiden/Amon/ gets confusing to hear). Also, spellings that are too unusual can really be cumbersome as the child is older & filling out school forms, etc. (Austyn ?) Trust me, I spell/repeat my name almost every day of my life, and my whole family has 'unusual' names ! Good Luck with #2 and God bless your family !

Hi I am a 27 year old mother of 3 kids ages 8, 3 and 2. We are a family of all C's. People think its weird sometimes that I would keep it going.but I am C. and my husband is Chris, so when I named my first one Colby Christopher, it just seemed fit that i name the others with C's too. My daughter is Carys Colleen and the youngest is Cadyn Chad. In addition to this, the middle names are all named after someone in the family. So I can identify with your delimma.
I like for A's the names...Austin (I know kind of common)and Amery. Amery isn't very common at all, but its one of those names you either like or don't at all. Also Alec, or you could spell it Alik. I have seen it both ways. You could also use common names such as Eric and Aaron but spell them Aric or Arin or Aren. Spelling a name different than normal is really popular these days. Well good luck to you and I hope you fins=d something you both can agree on!

I had a friend named Art growing up. (Not even short for Arthur..-they just named him Art.) My grandfathers name was Arlington. (I always thought it sounded so regal.) Blessings!

awww baby names, that is soo fun!!! I have to tell you my 2 picks for boy names happen to start with "A". I love Ashton and Avery (but I think Avery will be a trend name) Another name that is an oldy but goody and you dont hear very often is Alec. I just love the name Alec bc it reminds me of someone important, a strong name. I dont know Aiden and Alec sounds really good to me!!! Good luck with it, and I will keep thinking about names! Make sure and let us all know what you decide!!!

Well if you want a bible name, you could go with Abel or Abraham. But, if that's not your cup of tea; then there is Anson, Alden, Ash, Austin or Axson. As for the middle name I kinda like Nathaniel. Good luck with naming your son. I hope everything goes well and you have a safe and speedy delivery.

P.S. My favorite is Alden Nathaniel.

Here's an idea that I went with when I named my children.....I have two girls 14 & 4 years old.

My oldest daughter's name is Dalea pronounced DAH-LEE-A. Dale was her fathers name and I added an A on the end. Her nickname is pronounced LEE-A.

My youngest daughter is named Alexa Janel pronounced A-LEX-A JHA-NEL. My husband and her father's name is Arthur Jerome. I used his initials A&J. Her nickname is Lexa & Lexi. (if we had a boy instead, my husband is a Jr. and our son would've been a III. My husband goes by Jerome which is his middle name because his father went by Arthur. Our son would've been known as Jay or AJ or JJ for Jay Jr.)

Both girls have the same number of letters in their first names (5) and they both end with an A. (ending with an A has been a tradition for all of the girls born on my mom's side of the family..Deanna, Donna, Carla, Nora, Marla, S., Victoria, Dalea & Alexa)

With this in mind have you thought of putting an A in place of the K in your name like "Arist" and pronouncing it ARE-IST. You could also try this with the first and middle names of his father, grandfathers, uncles, godfather etc.

I also think Adrian Kade has a good rhyme to it & that it sounds good with Aiden Nicholas. Both first names start and end with the same letters. I think both names sound grown up, professional, sophisticated and masculine.

Those are just my thoughts. Hope they are helpful.
Good luck.
S.

Wow you have a lot of responses...My girlfriend named her little boy Andre and pronounces it On Dray with the emphasis and accent mark on the "dray" rather than the "On." He is the cutest little thing, his name is Andre' LeMaire. I also really like the name Austin and it sounds good with last names starting with "S"
