Boy's Names

Featured Replies

Does anyone know of any lists for boy's names(Thai)?

Also, would the names 'Hamish' , 'Dougal' mean anything silly in Thai? :o

We're expecting our second soon.

one of those thai language books by benjawan poonsam becker has a list of names in it. can't remember if it's the beginner or intermediate book.

I thought you were supposed to get a monk to name your child.

we're calling our son a farang name as we think it will be better in the long run (education abroad etc)

also, thais use nicknames for each other anyway so he can have a thai nick and a farang name on his passport.

you should be able to find a list of decent thai names on the internet ... a good one that works well in both languages is Arun. can't remember seeing hamish in there though!

I liked the name "Kraivixien" for our little prodigy, (its the name of a hairdressers in Central Chidlom dept store), but the wife thought it was over the top.

Recommend you don't go for 'Somkid', because its very old-fashioned - like "Ernest".

We Just named are boy Caden Williams

we called our son JETHRO. Although Thais have a hard time getting their tongue around the "th" - I figuered they could give Jet as a thai nickname!

www.babynames.com is not too bad, my missus is also expecting next month, been looking at many names...... hard to pick one.
