Urban & Edgy Baby Boy Names / Unique Boy Names That'll Totally Give Him Street Cred - SJ STRUM

[@heidisimmons9624]

Having seen Toy Story, Sid is forever out.

[@SJ_Strum]

Oooooh I can't remember the association! ha ha! xxxx

[@aliceking5569]

W.B. Yates is a famous Irish poet so would be perfect if you wanted an Irish/literature connection. Also I love Kamou! If you wanted a Hawaiian link you could have the nickname Maui.. love it!

[@bakerbrewz]

Bristol totally hits the mark for me! And I did really like the name Farris with that spelling too! I have two boys with L names: Lyric and Linkin so my third name has to be an L! I totally saw that cool man name Lenny! Love it! Thanks for this trendy list! It was super cool to hear some of the shout out names too like Hendricks. This list makes me think of some more names like Maverick, Cormack, Devlin, Corbin (Corbin Dallas from 5th Element), Carvid.

[@MichielBLKorte]

If you have a third boy, how about "Lennox"?

[@bakerbrewz]

@@MichielBLKorte I personally love the name Lennox…. But my husband and his Dad are both HVAC guys and Lennox is a brand of furnace so they totally don’t want their kid named after that haha 😂 so hard to please!

[@hayleychewins2435]

Gable, Hart and Bristol are so sweet! Love those.

[@laurensteenkamp7693]

There are very few (about 70 according to Wikipedia) Yates' pubs left in the UK today, many former Yates' locations are now Slug and lettuces'. The first ever Yates' is now a MacDonalds.

[@SJ_Strum]

Ahhh that's so good to know! It was such a funny association! x

[@DarthChichiri]

Farris but spelled Ferris is also associated with the movie Ferris Bueller. They spend the day exploring the city in the movie, so I think that's another great urban connection! My favorite edgy name, that I never really see anywhere, is Zephyr. The nickname could be Zeph, which sounds a bit like an alternative to Seth. A zephyr is a breeze, which comes from the Greek God Zephyrus (who personified the west wind).

[@bakerbrewz]

Oh my gosh I totally thought Ferris Beuller too when she said the name! Haha

[@oddmnemosyne2869]

Yeeees I love Ferris and as far as movie associations go, I think this is a great one. 💖

[@rs3007]

I met a little girl Farris/Ferris at the playground. I thought she was saying Paris but parents said no it's really Ferris.

[@jaydenp4975]

Saw Brett and Yates and immediately thought of INXS and Michael hutchence.

[@tiffanydoris3]

Sid makes me think of the neighbor in Toy Story and the sloth in Ice Age unfortunately 😂

[@oddmnemosyne2869]

Love Faris/Ferris, Bruno, Franz, Idris, Gable, Sidney/Sid, Roswell, Claudio, and Thames! Adding on, there's a city in my region called Corvallis- the town founder combined Latin roots for the meaning "heart of the valley" and I've always thought it would make a really handsome name!

[@hayleykaramian3076]

Heard the name Banksy for a boy a few years ago. I think that fits the brief! Not sure which spelling they used.

[@BexPunkQ]

Love Gable and Thames! 😍 So much! I wish I could adopt a couple of dogs so I could give them those names

[@SJ_Strum]

So much love for Gable! :-)) xxxx

[@vailroman2919]

I named my baby girl Idris, although we pronounce it Ee-dris. I had only known of Idris Elba to have that name, but it fits her so well and I cannot imagine her name being anything else. Tehehe.

[@activatingchangewithsteph1259]

Wow I never would’ve thought have the name Bristol yet I really like BR names

[@SJ_Strum]

It's gorgeous isn't it! xxx

[@caitlinparenteau3684]

Future Ferrett and Guinea Pig Names Flora Norah Agnes Naomi Marjorie Margaret Baisley Beata Bishop Bessa Royce Ryland Fletcher Roland Ivory Isa Westlake Wade Gaia Godiva Spencer Prince Wendell Bambleby Hale Penny Pamela Zaria Cher Charlotte Fern Cambria

[@TheYNirvana]

I liked the film Ferris Bueller! Not keen on most of these names. I think of that evil boy called Sid from Toy Story and Lenny from Of Mice and Men. Gable and Gabriel are nice but you just know boys aged 10 and above will be cruel with the nickname.

[@lizmartin4555]

Urban and edgy for me: Conrad, Johnny, Link, Rhett, Rufus, Rocko, Manny.

[@bakerbrewz]

Haha thanks I totally have a baby Linkin, but he goes by Link. We named him based on the band Linkin Park and Link is a play to Lefend of Zelda so I’d hope he was a trendy name! 😉

[@marty9011]

Love the name Conrad.

[@SJ_Strum]

Love these Liz - thanks for adding :-)

[@louisacoote2337]

The ie for girls and y for boys rule goes out the window with Leslie/Lesley. Leslie is the male version and the one for girls is Lesley!

[@arttificcer2324]

I've never heard that rule nor have i heard that lesley and leslie are different in gender

[@lilacgirl867]

Love these as always SJ ❤️ Okay baby name lovers, advise needed!!! I love the nickname Laney or Lainey for a girl but my husband isn’t a fan of Elena or Alaina (he also likes the nickname Lainey or Laney but we want a more formal name for when she grows up). Any thoughts on a longer name that can be shortened to the nickname Lainey or Laney?!

[@wildnfearless9840]

Delaney, Helena, Linnea, and Milena came to mind

[@MotherGooseLaura]

Surname “last name” baby names please

[@CyborgSlayerNila]

Ehh Brett is sooooo over used in the USA

[@SJ_Strum]

Is it!!! Wow it's not much over here x

[@baby5968]

Really? I literally know one Brett.

[@CyborgSlayerNila]

Yeah, i had like 4 in my class in high school. Maybe it's a southern millinial name

[@wildnfearless9840]

It's my great uncle's name, so it feels dated to me

[@renekastewart3975]

JESUS IS LORD. AMEN. 🙏😇✝️👍💚💙💙💛💙💚

[@Catillac26]

Love the name Idris. Great video SJ. Could you do a Tolkien inspired baby name list please?

[@pippatyce5824]

Oooh that’s such a wonderful idea as I sit here watching rings of power 😅❤

[@haileysanders6706]

Baby name list(s) idea: names for couples who are originally from different countries - examples: London/USA, Australia/China,etc

[@danablackburn1902]

I second this! My husband and I are from Nigeria and the US but we're living in the UK. Definitely struggling to find a way to choose a name that honours both heritages while keeping it easily pronounceable for everyone while also having a meaning that feels special to us both. All self-imposed pressure and we're probably overthinking it. But baby is due soon and we need help!

[@janepeterson1261]

Old English and/or surname boy names like Wooldridge or Linton please. They’re my soft spot at the moment 😍

[@SJ_Strum]

Ooooh pretty idea! Yes I love this! xxx

[@wildnfearless9840]

I love Gable and Monico! Thanks for shouting out my suggestions 😁

[@annafcates]

I love the name Gable, we're planning to have one child and that's perfect for a boy, plus I love very unused names like mine. SJ could you do another baby names teens love?

[@SJ_Strum]

Yes I love Gable too :-). Yes I'll put one up now! SJ x

[@haileysanders6706]

I LOVE your videos! Been watching for years, no babies or sims just fascinated by names. Thank you for the work you do!❤️🙏🏽

[@SJ_Strum]

Thanks Haley! It's so much fun to chat names :-) x

[@kirstycat]

I LOVE the name Brett! Such a cool guy name. The double T is just so attractive in boys names. My New surname (recently married) has two t's but this still could be a contender. Gable - never thought of this one! I'm putting this on my list as I love Gabriel but it's super popular especially within a lot of my Christian friends/church.

[@dawnmarieandjeff]

How about a Viking inspired names list? Or names for redheads/gingers?

[@marty9011]

I like Hart & Idris from this list. For Lenny I'd still be inclined to name the boy Leonard with Lenny as nn. I know a little Bruno & an older Bruno, that name has been around a long time but is still cool.

[@BabynameUniqueness]

Thx for adding Sakari 🍁from Babynames_unicorn

[@Luckyforus686]

Sakari is beautiful

[@almatedder2911]

Love Bruno, and Gable as an alternative to Gabriel. Roux is adorable, love it spelt Rue for a girl. So excited for the new statistics!

[@bakerbrewz]

Rue for a little girl would be absolutely darling! Adore adore adore that idea!

[@marty9011]

Just saying but Roux is the name of a sauce.

[@SJ_Strum]

Ah so glad you love those too! I love Gable! x

[@EMxo__]

You look like you’ve lost more weight SJ, you look lovely! I really like Farris for a girl too! My last name is Scott, so I’ve noted Farris Enya Scott for a potential girl name 🥰

[@SJ_Strum]

Ooooh I love that name combo!! xxxx

[@liz2318]

I adore Hart and Gable! I'm most likely done growing my family but I still enjoy your channel. I got my daughter's name from one of your videos a long time ago. Sylvie - meaning from the forest very fitting for her being born in Alaska. Crazy how we pick a name we think is rare then it keeps becoming more popular after you use it.

[@JP_Pete]

hello SJ how are you ? the day i have been waiting for has finally arrived where i get to message you my husband and I are expecting ❤️ so my filipino husband JP and I are expecting in May 2023. Our surname is Marzan We have decided to keep the gender as a surprise! at this stage for a boy we love BEAUX and KEONI (when i first met JP (John Paul) he told me he was half filipino half hawaiian to make is more exotic and it worked. Keoni means John in hawaiian so that’s why we like it as it has some meaning For a girl we like SIERRA as it means from a mountain (JP’s home in the phillipines is Baguio which is in the mountain area, so again has meaning. His gorgeous niece has so kindly decided to donate and carry the child for us. A huge and beautiful thing she is doing. Both our mothers have passed (Florentina & Estelle) We are looking for ideas and suggestions for both genders if you could help us out ❤️

[@louisacoote2337]

I think you should choose something simple, as your child might already be a bit more unusual, having two dads. Unfortunately, people can still be hideously unkind to same sex parents and their children!

[@BirdyBeauty101]

could you do a video based on angel numbers… so look at the number for love, success, miracles etc. and find the name at that number on the charts. like the number 77 is for luck so the name at number 77 on the charts. you could also talk about number names and names associated with numbers like ‘Ivy’ meaning IV meaning 4. i hope this make sense… loved this video SJ 💗

[@SJ_Strum]

I actually started researching this list and was worried I'd get details wrong!! ha ha! As I'm not great on Angels but I'll keep working on it x

[@Luckyforus686]

Love Lenny/Leni

[@theofficalkibaswordsva]

My parents are friends with this one guy in his mid 50s who’s name is Franz and it’s a unusual name where I live since most sites I’ve seen it it’s under 10,000 in popularity and I’ve always liked the name Franz from the first time I heard it

[@mentallyunw3ll]

SJ!! We’re gunna have beef! You keep snatching from the list! 😂Yates and Gable are GREAT picks im so excited for people to use them! 🖤

[@arttificcer2324]

Everyone seems to really like Bristol in the comments. Am I the only one who keeps thinking bristol board lol

[@kaiaelizabeth1066]

I love Idris!! It's on the top of my list and ranks lower here in the United States.

[@craigholly8910]

Any help please? Looking for a middle name to go with Louie or lewys for a boy last name Holly We already have a boy called Hudson cooper Holly but running out of ideas

[@wildnfearless9840]

Louie Bennett Holly, Lewis Wyatt Holly

[@hannahwright1636]

Oh my god I enjoyed that so much

[@Claireannette77]

Bristol is kinda growing on me lol I know it for boys and girls

[@eaglefoot23]

Hart has been at the top of my boy name list, as a nickname for Harlan! Harlan is the opposite of edgy, but I just wanted to share!
