Cool Baby Boy Name??!!??

Question

We are having a new baby boy in October. We picked the name Malakai. But, we live in a very small town and another lady just named her baby that. I wouold have said so what but she and I have the same first name and we have sons that already share the same name. Are there any suggestions?? Maybe something similar??

Answer 1

try Malik, Marvin, Michael, Mitchelo, Monjaro, Monassa, Mashad

Answer 2

i would go with Malik( muh-leek)

Answer 3

Wow what are the odds of that! I would be so mad! If you really like the name then I would name your baby that. It is your baby, so you are going to have to say that name every day for the rest of your life. If that is the name you want the who cares if some other person has the same name!

Unless you name you kid something like Admooienmldsn then they will eventually meet someone with the same name anyway.

Go with your gut! Good luck!!!

Answer 4

Mika

Or go for something totally different like Zac, Issac or Elijah

Answer 5

makaya ryly  

Answer 6

This is your son, name him whatever you want. Malakai is a wonderful strong name, but your feelings on it may change. When he arrives here, he may not look like a Malakai and you may name him something different.  Pick several names, take the list with you when you go to the hospital. That's what I did, and my son did not look like a Cole, so I named him Kameron Blake.

Answer 7

Mateo

Answer 8

Oooh I really really like the name Maddox a lot. I think it is very unique and pretty. You should try that out.

Answer 14

Answer 15

Michael, Matthew, Maximilian, Maxwell

Answer 16

I love the name Malachi.  It's just crazy that you too are so alike in baby name choices and share teh same first name!  However, at this point I guess I would try to come up with a different name as well.  As someone else suggested, Nicolai is very nice and similar to Malakai.  You could call him Nick or Nico as a nickname!

Answer 17

If you want another spelling variation what about Malachi. If you want a different name what about:

Madden

Micah

Michael

Kaile...Kyle

Milo

Jessiah

Keegan

Lucas...Luke for short

Miles

or

Aedan

similar cute name

-makay

-maka

maakai

-cas

Answer 19

What about Micah?

Answer 20

I liked Malakai at first too and then got turned off to it because of the rising popularity.

So when looking for alternatives I came up with Micah (which is becoming too common in girls...too common all over really) and Mekhai. Well I ended up with Mekhai...or Khai for short, same nickname you'd probably use for Malakai.

So...good luck. I love my Khai Khai and get compliments on his name all the time! =)

Answer 21

If you want to name a child Malachi, you should start by spelling it correctly..  If you really want to name your son Malachi, go ahead, it's your choice.  I would say, however, that it probably would create the appearance of you trying to copy her kids names.

If Biblical names are your bag, how about Isaiah, Joshua, Jacob, Peter, James, John, Andrew, etc.?

Answer 22

No no and no , if you want the baby name to start with M than should be  let's say .... Mike !!!

No some stupid name ( sorry !!! )  Miaka... something

I like Justin as a name

so you chose

Good luck with the names byu byu

Answer 23

Hi!-



The name Malakai is similar to the spelling of the book in the Bible, Malachi. You could name him Ezekial (another book in the Bible) and call him Zeke for short which is a really cute name! Sorry, I don't know if you a Christian so I don't know if you like that or not but I hope you do!

Here are some more names:

Pierce

Keegan

Adrian

Scott (nn could be Scottie when he's younger)

Atticus

Jackson or Jaxon

Kyson

Kyler

Aaron
