I have a girl, named Rose. We have a boy coming soon. We want to keep with a natural theme, plants, animals, climate, geological, celestial, etc. But it needs to sound masculine, and most of the nature names seem to sound feminine.
Some ideas I have so far: Stone, Cliff, Ridge, Flint, Sage, Tiger, Forest, & River. What else?
How about Larch?
Please don't name your kid any of the possibilities you listed. They all will lead to mockery of your child by his peers.
Sun, Moon, Breeze, Tide, Storm, Sunshine.
For a kid you to be aggressive: Tsunami, Avalanche, Flood, Hurricane, Whirlwind.
i met a guy named Storm once. he owns an insurance company and makes more money than i'll ever see in a lifetime.
Crevasse?
Seriously, for climate: how about Nimbus (also good for a runner), Cumulo or Stratus? Ozone, Oz for short?
Geological: Geode?
Celestial opens up much of Greek mythology.
Rivers: Rill, Silt
Animals: Jag(uar)
chief squatting duck
chief startled horse
chief squaking crow
chief flowing river
etc have fun!
Cliff, Eddy, Granite, River, Bay, Pitt, Thorax
Scorpion, Blade, Ice, Lightning, Tributary
I ran against a guy in high school that was named "Rain." He was a good dude and I continue to think that it is a stellar name.
Hunter.
Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John.
Volcano! Fault Block Mountain Range! Riparian Watershed!
Galen
Tide.
The lead singer of weezer is Rivers, and his brother is Leaves. NOT KIDDING
Dewey
How about Gervais Brooke-Hamster? Constable Parrot?
Pauly - Parrot
Billy - Goat
Joey - Baby Kangaroo
Snake? Buck? Bear? Hawkeye?
Basil, Timber, Axel (as in axel of the earth), Pluto (although no nlonger a planet), and Mercury. Don't forget about constellations as well, where there is an abundance of greek and roman gods you can name your offspring after (i.e. Aries, Orion, Leo, Zeus).
Just throwing it out there that Hunter and Buck are two very sweet names.
Oh, and Wolf Masturbator.
How about Clay? That's as earthy as it gets.
If you already have Rose, how about Thorn?
