Just to clarify: Fife is not prn. like "fee-fee". It has a long I.

I like Elijah, Ezra, Isaac, Isaiah, Jude, Julian, and Noah... I would toss the rest.
Please don't name him "Darby", that's my moms dogs name. Seriously!

Good luck with choosing a name. All of the names above are very nice. Some of them are quite unique but nice. Have a great day.

People are perceived by their names. Other people have preconcieved feeings about them before they ever meet the person. What do you think of when you hear the name Ezra? I think of an old man with a cane. Most of these are so old and unattractive. William, Isaac and Callum might do but the rest would be a burden-Florian? the kid better take lessons in self defense before kindergarten. Be careful, naming kids. If you feel the need to be that creative write a damm poem or something!

I like Ainsley, Callum, Connor, Elijah (my favorite), Finlay, Isaac, Isaiah, Jensen, Jude, Milo, and Noah. Not really too keen on any of the other names I'm afraid.
Fife by the away is also the name of an area in Scotland - it's not Irish. it's pronounced Fyfe (rhymes with life)...and in Gaelic it's written as Fìobh. :-)

the first 3 look like girl names. August is the fat kid from willie wonka. Basil is an herb found in pizza sauce. Callum sounds like a weird body part sort of like cartelage. Darby sounds feminine. Fife sounds like a flute or musical instrument.
Florian sounds feminine. Galloway sounds like a last name. Jensen sounds like the name of a butler. Milo is the cat or dog from Milo and Otis. Moses is too famous.
So I would go with Boden, William, Jude or Noah.

Faves: Noah, Julian, Jude, Isaac, Elijah, Eamonn, Conor, Caelan, Callum, and Asher
I would pass on: Moses, Milo, Jess, Garroway, Ezra, Darby, and Atticus
If you are looking for more Irish boys names, I am partial to Cillian, Edan, Kian, Kiel, and Corey (a little personally biased on that last one...)

Ansley sounds more girlish to me
Basil is a food thign & your kid might get a lot more teasing then regular kids
Bohdan/Bohdi sounds like someone who lieks budhists a lot lol
Callum makes me think of callous on hands or something so maybe not very good either.
Darby sounds like an anime character
Fife is more for a girl dog name
Florian makes me think of dentists's constant nagging about flossing...lol
Gannon is much like cannon...shoot the kid off...lol
Jensen would do better as a secondary name not a first name.
hope that helps a bit...

Out of those, I think Elijah, Julian, Noah, Jude and Milo should be in your top 5. Although, Elijah is my favorite. I heard a different name the other day, Wilder, its a new name.
