Agreeing on names is tough! We have a Brody and Greyson, but I also love Zane or Rowan. Maybe more Irish than western though?
Hi, I was hoping I can get some ideas on names. We are having a baby boy... in about a week, or less.... and have not come up with a name we both like. We have gone through 2 baby name books, so I thought I would check in on here :) I tend to like some western or unique names, I kind of like Rogan and I like Ryder, but any other ideas? Thanks in advance!
I went with Rogan Luke :)

Don't know if you saw this link, there are some cute cowboy names here:

My son's name is Banyan, so we like different also....
We also liked:
-Kanyan
-Legend
-Rowan
Good luck!
I have a Wyatt, so of course I love that one...but it is getting way popular these days, just FYI.
How about:
Chord
Wylie
Cole
Trip
Levi
Tanner
Willie
Miles
When I think western, that's what I come up with :)
Logan, Wyatt, Zayne, Cole, Griffin
Western names? Check out a list of all the counties in Texas and see if that doesn't spark some inspiration. My first and middle names are two Texas counties too! Here's fun game: Lay out a Texas map on a dart board and throw two darts: Bingo! There's your name.
I love the name Roman or Mason. Rogan is cute to it reminds me of Roman.
LOVE Ryder. I also love Tyler. My son is Matthew James.
I know a little boy named Rye. I love it
Forrest?
Zane?
Levi?
Chase?
Austin?
Ranger
Grainger
Foster
Walker
Dustin, Justin, Destry, Duke, Garth, Montana, Nevada, Dakota, Travis, Carson, Hoyt, Shiloh, Jace or Harley
Colt
Colton
Rope
Hoss
Steer
Logan
Austin
Travis
Have you considered using your maiden name as his first name?
Go to a rodeo website and look at the results to see the names of the competitors, that should give you some good western names to choose from.
Ramsey
Nolan
Ranger
Judah
Rogan... reminds me of that bald hair treatment "Rogaine."
What about (since you seem to like "R" names):
Ryan
Rainer
Redmond
Ralston
Remy
Ridley
Richard
Rocco
Robert
Rory
I love both the names you picked! I also thought Brogan. Good luck and congrats!!
We did not have a name for my son until two days after he was born. We named him Travis Daniel, just because that is what he looked like. He is five weeks old now, and I still call him Trevor, Tyler, Taylor and any other two syllable T name I can think of. He just looked like a Travis (actually I was calling him Farmer Ted, but that wouldn't do for a permanent name). We also liked a lot of other names, including Grayson, Brett, Aaron, etc.
levi
rope
austin
wrangler
garrett
these are used in okla for girls names but i knew a western cowboy family these were the kids names you might like for a boy. dakota, wrangler, denver, chyeanne, and thier last name was buck. what about buck for a first name?
then there is always john wayne cant get more western than that. also look in the pbr. you have rope, tuff, ty, and some other really unique names
I really like Rogan!
My faves are:
Nigel
Liam
Stone
Rhys (pronounce Reese)
I have a friend who seems to have a western theme with her 3 boys--Logan, Wyatt & Kason-- They were debating between Kason, Wesley or Shane for the last one. I loved the names Zayne & Griffin, but my hubby wasn't having any of that! Good luck!
When you decide I'd be eager to know what you picked :)
I love Rogan. I thought of Brogan for my son, but "brogan" is a type of shoe and I just couldn't use it myself. I like Brody as well.
Good luck!!

I'm a teacher and once knew a child named Wrangler. I have also had a Canyon in my class. I like more unique names. Hope this helps.
I like the name Ryder but for a middle name.
Ethan Ryder
James Rogan
Ryder James
Hunter Rogan
Ethan Jacob
My husband likes Rowdy or Chance
I like Wyatt and we went with Kalen pronounced KayLen
me & my husband had a hard time agreeing too, best of luck.
I like Ryder, also Mason. Actually Ryder Mason and Mason Ryder sound pretty good!
I like Matthew James or Matthew Charles.
Riley
River
Zane
What about Riley? Wyatt?
I vote for Rogan! Love it!
Trey, Shay, Cole, Clint, Luke, Trent, Cody, Tucker, Jackson.
you should name your kid, pauly d.
I like both Rogan & Ryder!
My second choice for my son was Landon. Still love that name too. =-)
I am not fond of Rogan but I do like Ryder. How about Cole or the ever popular Wyatt?
I am partial to Ryder, as that is my son's name ;-)
But one thing to be aware of... we were aware of the Ryder Cup, and felt that wasn't a big deal. However, after our son was born we would tell someone his name and they would be like "You mean like the rental truck company? He is big like their trucks." or "Is your next one going to be named Uhaul? ha, ha" It was quite annoying. Luckily, that kind of response has died off for the most part (after four years).
I knew a boy named Stetson. He was a great kid, always very independent. In a good way, lol. He had brothers named Houston and Austin. You'd think they were Texans or something. ;-)
There's also Wyatt and Hunter.
Good luck!
Here are a few more to add to the numerous great names already posted.
Butler
Chaz
Coogan
Errol
Flint
Flynn
Roger
I always like watching the credits at the end of movies. I always see different names on there. That's where I got ideas for my children's names.
God bless and let us know what you decide!
I like Rogan also. My good friend has a son named Waylon.
