Suggestions for a baby name?

Question

My husbands name is Ryan and i love that name, but he wont allow me to name the baby after him (he doesnt like it when people name their kids after someone, he thinks the kid should have his own personality)... can anyone think of a boy and girls name that may sound or be similiar to Ryan here are a few i thought of Ryland, Rylie and Ryden..the last one im not even sure if its a name, my friends cousin named her son that other then those 3 names im stumped lol

Answer 1

Why not use it as the middle name?

Answer 2

Bryan

Ryder

Rylan

Byron

Miron

p.s. good for your husband - he has the right idea.

Answer 3

What about Aryn?

It's an anagram of Ryan, and it can be a boy's or a girl's name.

Answer 4

Rhianna for a girl is really pretty.  Would he consider Ryan as a middle name if you have a son?

Answer 5

I must agree with your husband. Children are their own person and should have their own name. I would never name my child after someone the father or me know or are related to. Middle name, okay, but first, no.

Ryan means "little king", so you could start from there and pick something with a similar meaning.

Ryanna (Rye-anna) Ryelle (Rye-elle) Rylin (Rye-lin)

For a girl how about Ryann (pronoun ed Rye-Ann) and I think the other names you have would work for a boy.

Ryan O'neil!

Answer 14

Rylan, Riley, Rick, Richie, Richard, Raymond.....Thats all i got

Answer 15

all of those are cute. but since he wants them to have their own mane. name him bryan. do you see the ryan part? i know. oh so genius of me. and i just thought of it. :)

Answer 16

For a little girl, I love the name Riley!

For a boy, I'm not really sure.

Try www.babynames.com. It is REALLY helpful.

I would also suggest looking into the meaning of the name Ryan, which is said to be "King". On the name website, you can search other names that mean King. So maybe if it's not a name similar to Ryan, you can still honor the name Ryan/your husband :)

Answer 17

I know a girl named Ryanne, and I've also seen Rhiann.

Rhys (reece) for a boy is also nice.
