Connor
Caleb
Lucas
Joseph

If ya'll could tell us what you think about these names and maybe give us some ideas about other names and middle names too.. it sure would help a lot.. We kinda want a name that he can grow into and go out in the world and not have a 'baby' name.. If that makes sense

Evan - I love this name! It would make a great mn too.
Isaac - Another favorite.
Eli - I haven't met too many Eli's. I also like this name a lot too.
Ethan - As much as I love this name, it's very popular.
Casey - Not my style. I think it's to feminine sounding for a boy.
Landon - This has been getting really popular where I live.
Connor - This was THE name at my daughters school last year.
Caleb - I don't see it being a mans name. I just think it sounds to soft. Just my opinion.
Lucas - This name is growing on me because my 4yo daughter loves it. I mean really LOVES it.
Joseph - Absolutely a favorite of mine. I think it can grow really well with a child into adulthood.
Joey to Joe to Joesph.
Nathan - I also like this name and like Nathaniel too.
My favorites with your last name -

[quote="jnicole"]Well I just found out I am expecting a boy!! I am due in 4 months and my husband and I haven't decided on a name. We need help!!
We like these names:
Evan - I used to really love this name, but then we had a tedious neighbor boy named Evan. I am biased.
Isaac - love it
Brady - too trendy
Eli - I love Elijah nn Eli even though it's so popular.
Ethan - I think this is handsome, but it is overdone.
Casey - for me, this name is not significant enough for formal occasions.
Landon - I think of Michael Landon, and he bothered me.
Connor - I don't usually like names like this.
Caleb - I kind of like this name, but it is getting so popular.
Lucas - love
Joseph - admire
Nathan - I love Nathaniel much more, but with your long last name, Nathan would be better.
Oh yeah our last name is Montgomery.. Thank ya'll! - Sure! I love your last name!
With your last name, I like
Evan Montgomery
Isaac Montgomery
Lucas Montgomery
Nathan Montgomery
What about:
August Montgomery
Bryce Montgomery - Bryce is really trendy, but I like it with your last name!
Clayton Montgomery
Clive Montgomery
Corbin Montgomery
Edwin Montgomery
Gavin Montgomery
Hugh Montgomery
Logan Montgomery
Miles Montgomery - this is my favorite!
Milo Montgomery
Owen Montgomery - Owen is really popular, but I love it with your last name.
Pierce Montgomery
Reed Montgomery - super handsome
Ronan Montgomery
Rufus Montgomery - not your style, but I couldn't resist! It's just so fun.
Trevor Montgomery - handsome.
Trey Montgomery - ditto
Vance Montgomery
Zane Montgomery

Evan: I personally prefer Everett, but I do think that Evan is handsome (but popular).
Evan Alexander Montgomery
Evan Samuel Montgomery
Evan Xavier Montgomery
Isaac: I love Isaac!
Isaac Benjamin (a bit M heavy with your last name...)
Isaac Harrison
Isaac Jude
Isaac Nathaniel
Brady: Brady is too trendy to me, and reminds me of the trendy Brayden/Jayden, etc. names.
Some more Irish names you may like:
Beckett
Cashel
Cullen
Declan
Dashiell (Scottish)
Finn/Finnian
Kellan (not Irish, but it sounds Irish to me) :-)
Lachlan (Scottish...)
Quinlan
Rowan
Eli: I think it's handsome, but I love Elias and Elliot.
Eli Gabriel (a bit G heavy with your last name...)
Eli Harrison
Eli Nathaniel
Eli Raphael
Eli Samuel
Ethan: Ethan is too popular for me...
Casey: I'm personally not a fan of Casey.
Have you considered Cassius, with the nickname of Cash?
Landon: Landon feels too trendy to me, and I personally wouldn't use it with your last name, because it's a place name. Landon Montgomery sounds like Land in Montgomery to me, as if someone took a flight to Montgomery, Alabama, and is discussing the travel schedule.
Have you considered Lachlan?
Some more surnames you may like:
Archer
Bennett
Donovan (not the best with your last name...)
Everett
Harrison
Maxfield
Pierson/Pierce
Quinlan
Reed (although it's pretty Ree heavy with your last name's ending)
Sawyer
Wilson
Connor: I prefer some of the other names on your list...
Caleb: Too popular for me... Have you thought about Calvin?
Lucas: I think that Lucas/Luke is handsome, but when I say Lucas Montgomery out loud, I hear Luca Smontgomery. I think that Luke Montgomery sounds great, though!
Joseph: I love the classic Joseph...
Joseph Gideon (Although Gideon Montgomery is a mouthful!)
Nathan: I really like this name, and LOVE Nathaniel.
Nathan Alexander
Nathan Samuel
Nathaniel Blaise
Nathaniel Charles
Nathaniel Jude
Nathaniel Pierce
Nathaniel Reed (Ree heavy with your last name, though)
(I'm sorry I skipped around and didn't give combos for everything!) :-)
Good luck! :-)

I really like Elliott Connor Montgomery.
Do you like Elliott as a full name for Eli? I think it is more substantial than Eli and sounds much nicer than Elijah?

Evan- sounds good
Isaac
Brady
Eli
Ethan
Casey- this is good, although I unfortunately have known many dog owners naming there dogs this.....including mine.
Landon I like this one.
Connor
Caleb- this is quite popular, if that's okay with you
Lucas- don't care for
Joseph- this is fine, but this name may be lost forever if that's okay by the shortening of it...... Joe, Joey, etc.
Nathan-very popular

Susan and Jill had some amazing suggestions! Montgomery is so cool, you lucky duck!! :)
Evan - its actually starting to go to the girls ala Evan Rachel Wood, but regardless its number 38 on the charts and that's too popular for comfort in my world. I do like it, though...but like Jill I prefer Everett (which is #383)
Isaac - this is my favorite on your list and it sounds amazing with your last name
Brady - I agree that this feels trendy, but I also think of Tom Brady and I have an irrational dislike of that man...
Eli - I really like this one, but I like it as a nn for Elias or Elliot or Elijah
Ethan - I definitley see the appeal of this name, but the fact that its #3 turns me off completley
Casey - just not my style
Landon - I like this name, but again its quite popular at #44
Connor - too popular for me, I like Callum though
Caleb - ditto
Lucas - I have a soft spot for this one, but Luca is even better! :)
Joseph - this one has always felt a bit "blah" to me
Nathan - Nathaniel is even better :)
