    Help me decide!

    I am a very indecisive person and would love to hear general feedback on some names that have been tossed around (please be honest, but respectful). DH typically likes unique, masculine names, so here are some that came up:

    Nash
    Crew
    Ridge
    Vance
    Rex
    Dexter (would go by Dex)

    Also, 1-syllable names are preferred. So if you have any masculine, short names to throw in the mix that are also easy to spell/say (not into creative spellings), feel free to add to the list.

    Thanks!

    Nash - Would you consider using Nate/Nathanial? I prefer Nate to Nash.
    Crew - Not my style.
    Ridge - I don't mind Ridge. I think I would pair this with a more classic/traditional mn for some balance.
    Vance - My favourite of your suggestions! Vance definitely has my vote.
    Rex - I have known too many dogs by the name of Rex unfortunately!
    Dexter (would go by Dex) - Probably my second favourite of your suggestions. My only hesitation is the association I have to the TV show/serial killer

    I like Nash and Ridge best. My cousin's little boy is named Nash, and he is so cute. Ridge is cool and appeals to my nature loving style ;-) Crew is too much of a word name to me (crew of a ship, crew socks, crew cut, etc). Plus, it's the kind of word that sounds really strange when you say it a lot. I know a man named Rex, and the names works well for him. The others are ok, just not my style.

    Some great suggestions here! I will run them by DH. Unfortunately both Cash and Colt are off the table (dogs name and close friend's sons name), plus Kai is too rhymy with our last name. But the others I will check with hubby.

    Any other feedback/opinions on our short list?
