So here is the deal. With out planning this, all of our kids initials are M.J.B. So to not leave our fourth out in the dark with an odd ball initial, help us name his first name. Matthew is out of the question, and other names like Michael and Mark and Max and other forms of those names are out as well.
So help us find a unique boy name that starts with M. Leave a comment

I really like the names Mason James or Myles Jade.
Our oldest son’s middle name is Mitchell. We tend to call him that more than anything. Love that name! Good luck with your search!
Micah
Mason
Jaxon
Jonah
Maverick is also a good one. I am not sure what it means, but it sounds strong.
Mills
Mac
Marty
Mosely (*could call him Mo for short
Major
Manly
Just a few off the top of my head. Best of Luck!
I think Murphy or Miles are cool & masculine sounding names.
Just a heads up. Mateo is the spanish form of Matthew. Good luck with the baby’s name!
Moses or McGuyver
I have always liked the name Miles (or Myles)…
What about Matthew Thomas? Simple, sweet, two apostles of Jesus and no oddity about it for later years.
Much happiness to all the family.
Matthew
Many blessings to you and your family
How about Madden Mayden or Morgan
Malcolm
Maynard
James
Jeremy
Jason, you be funny and go Mason Jason.
Jackson
It would really depend on the middle name…I have looked at some of the other comments and I love Malachi and Max.
I love Mason, McKay, and Max
However here are some other ideas I like: McKenzie, Mack, Manuel, and Mario
Mason
I have another name idea
Mateo Joel
(Ma-t-o)
Morgan Jackson
Morgan James
My son’s name is Myles and it’s my favorite. We also use the M first initial after my husband.
How about Marshal?
We named our son Miles (middle name Timothy). He’s almost nine months now. We get comments all the time about what a cool name it is!
Miles
Mackenzie
Mitchell
Manny(this is my favorite)
Mark
My father’s middle name was Marshall and I’ve known a small boy named Murray. I also like Mitchell – Mitch(as has been mentioned).
Mitch (Mitchell) Joseph/Jesse
Good Luck and have fun picking a name!
Micah
Miles and
Mitchell are my favorite M names that are not so overdone these days!
Can’t wait to hear your final choice.
This name is not unique but it is strong and it goes well with Matthew. How about Michael James?
Good Luck with your delivery!
Here are an interesting combination of names from the top of my head, to consider:
– Macon Jace
– Marc Jamison
– Max Jayden
– Myles James
– Miles Jase
– Macall Jax
– Mylan James
– Mace Jackson
– Micah Jaymes
Best wishes with your newborn and naming him! J
I think the name Mecklan James would fit just perfect! Good luck and again, thanks for all you do for everyone! You are a blessing!
how about Martin James
Martin is a good old english name
I also like maddox McKay
Good luck and thanks for all you do for us.
Have you thought about Maguire? I think it would be cool!
Marek Joshua
Best of luck picking his name!!!
I think Mason and Miles are way cute! The middle name would be Jace or James.
how about:
MADISON JAMES
MONROE JOSEPH
MASON JOHN
MICHAL JOEL
MYRON JORDAN
marshall
I like the names: Micah, Mckay or Mason. Good luck!
I think it would so cool to have a boy named Merrill.
I would name my boy that but we have a friend with the last name merrill and that would just be akward… lol
My friend’s son is from her maiden name, Meyer, very strong and masculine. I thought the Matson was pretty clever: but as he grows the phone calls would still be “Is Matt there?”… confusing. Also, think of the name as an adult… when he is in the corporate world, doing a business deal…how strong is the name Maverick or Micah? somehow I don’t see someone saying/referring “Go see Micah, You should talk to Mav, at XYZ”. Too casual/less serious.
Mishak
Montgomery
I Love to Play the Baby Name game….lets flip the initials..how about…
*Justice McKrae*
Name your boy MAVERICK! that is the cutest (and coolest) boys name! Very Tough!
Micah!
1st name Merrick- i just think its cute for a boy and strong for a man. all around its a name someone can grow with, i never hear it either. As for middle I’ve always gone old-classic like Jeffery (my son) but Jacob(i like it a lot),James,john, Jason, Jimmy, etc.
I’ve always liked Madden and Mason!
Miko
I also like Matson! others I have found:
Manka, McKelvey, Meyer, Miles, Murphy
Have fun:)
How about Maddox
Whishing you a safe delivery
I like McNeal or McNeil.
I agree with Amy B and Rainey below
Malcolm means ‘follower of St. Columba’, who brought Christianity to the pagan Scots. Great name!
I like Mateo. That is the name of my 6 month old son.
My Suggestions are:
Mitchell Jordan
Mackenley James
Malcolm….. its a good Scotish name.
Maylan is the name of our friends son. It has a nice ring to it.
Jennifer
Mathiel
Jamar
Jashar
Mitchell Jacob
Madison James
Malcolm John
Manning Jackson
I think Mason is really cute, but it is becoming a popular name and with Kourtney Kardashian naming her baby boy Mason, I have a feeling it will take off even more!
I do like the name MacCallister/McCallister though!
Good luck!
Casey
I like the name Malcolm. My uncle in Australia has that name and my nephew here in SO Cal has it too.
My son has the cutest little boy in his class named McKenna. Another one, Marty.
Okay, I have one more that I think is manly, yet different, Major.
Mailon
I named my boy Hinckley… he was the prophet at the time… You could go with Monson.
voting for Malachi- cute plus its a biblical name:)
I friend of mine named their son Mathis,a cute unique name
Malek /mah’ leck/
Mario
Myles Jamison is my vote.
First names:
Marger
Mikelis
I love both of those names. One is my daddy’s other one is my grandaddy’s
These are from my daughter:
First Name-
Mathias (muh-thigh-us)
Methuselah (meth-ooz-uh-lah)
Madai (muh-day or mad-ee)
Mizraim (mizz-ray-um or mizz-ram)
Moab (moe-abb)
Midian (midy-ann ~like Gideon)
Middle Name-
Judah (jude-ah)
Justice (juzt-iss)
Jacob (jake-ub)
Jerome (jur-ome ~like home)
Jordan (jore-den)
Japeth (jay-pith)
Well, hope those help give you some ideas!
Mackay, Moroni, Melek
Mitchell, Morgan, Micah
a little boy in my sons’ class is named Matias. ( he says it, MUH-TEE-US) A unique name.
What about McKay? My cousin has that name and I LOVE IT! I also like McCoy as already mentioned.
I have a Mason, we love unique names or names not used very often. It is French and has a nice sound to it.
Mac or Mack
Mason Jackson
McCoy
Myron
i like mitchell and mason those are 2 real good strong names…
I’m partial to Mackenzie – Mack – been reading ‘The Shack’ – good luck — it took us forever to figure out what to name our son -
I like McKendree – it’s my nephew’s middle name. Jaxon is a cute middle name….
Mikade – not sure if it has been posted yet!
I have always liked the name Myles.
I think M names must be popular, cause my two children are Melody and Maxamillion!
I thought of one more which goes perfect with your other three children:
Mcklain Julian
I love that name, and it’s not popular which is even better!
Magnus is good. It means great or magnificent. Magnus opus means “great work”. Our children are our greatest, and God’s greatest work. I’ll have to think about the middle initial more……..
As far as the middle initial “J” my little brother is “Joel” always liked it. But you could use Jay or Jameson or anything that starts with a J obviously
but Milo Joel would be cute
I also like Mitchel and Mason or I think maybe you should match your initals and name him after you this time.
Silas is cute no reason you should be the only “S” in the family right?
I have always liked Mason
I also vote for Max… good with things..hope all goes well…
How about:
Mason Jonathan
I love both those names!
Malone Jackson (call him Mal) or Mack James (my grandfather’s name was Edward Mack). Merritt John. Monroe James.
Just want to apologize for adding a middle name. I totally missed the part where you just asked for help on the first name. I committed one of my own pet peeves. Ack!
Macon
Maleke(Maleek)
But my favorite is…
Matson (means son of Matt)
How about McKai?
Also like Merrick!
Word of warning on one of the names…
For those of us that perhaps watched “Children of the Corn” in our younger years, Malachi is still too well known for being the possessed demon kid…eek. Red Alert.
I like the name Malachi and call him Chi (pronounced Ky). I have a James for one of my boys’ middle names.
I love both Mason and Madden
Hmmm… Naming a little one is so hard!
I like the names Madden, Micah, and Morgan.
Good luck!
Sarah
I also like Mitchell.
(With Mason, I always think of Mason jars – so I’d be apt to do Masen).
I have no idea what your tastes are but here are a few that I like in the “MJ” category:
Memphis James (sweet southern cool)
Mangus Jay (if you’re a fan of Jazz)
Magnus Jack (presidential flair)and
Moses Joseph (so you can call him MoJo for short! hahaha ;^P)
Take luck!
Malachi means messenger of God in Hebrew
