The More Serious Baby Boy Name Search


The other day, I posted the not-so-serious baby name suggestions my husband and I came up with in case we're having a baby boy. However, while our friends and family are voting, I also did some serious research on baby boy names and their meanings. 

Before all these, I told my husband that I like the name Yeohann Jacob. But, he said that he still wants to use the same initials, E and J in case the baby is indeed a boy. So, I started searching the net for variations of Yohan or Johann that starts with the letter E and chanced upon several names with the same meaning, which is beloved. 

To cut the long story short, here are the 4 baby boy names I came up with and their corresponding meanings. I asked my mom, my sisters, and 5 close friends to vote for the best.

1. EVAN JED - [gracious gift of God] [beloved of God]

2. EIVAN JACOB - [gracious gift of God] [supplanter,one who follows]

3. EDRIC JOASH - [rich and powerful] [given by the Lord]

4. EUAN JEDRIC - [pronounced as "Yuan", beloved/gracious gift of God] 
                                  [JED - beloved of God] [EDRIC - rich and powerful]                                                           
                                - [J - from Joey/EJ], [ED - Lolo Ted], [RIC - Lolo Eric]

And the winner is...




#4



"Euan Jedric"

It was a unanimous decision. 
Even I voted for this name and my husband liked it, too..hehehe. ;-)





What do you think of this name? I demand an honest opinion! Hahaha! Tell me, how did you choose your baby's name? Did you choose it for its meaning, popularity, or to honor a loved one? Share your thoughts!
