Im having difficulty finding names I like. I need two - three names that roll off the tongue and wouldn’t be out of place with a long hyphenated surname.
No religious names
No surnames
No places
Nothing that rhymes with Aden
Upvote good suggestions otherwise post ones. Bonus points if it’s a sci-fi name.
Edit: lots of good suggestions, but I think I’m going with ‘Wash’.

Andrew, after me
Excellent suggestion your grace
So… it’s almost April. You really gonna name the kid Wash?
We’re probably going with something from Battlestar Galactica.
Please don’t name your kid Wash
I would either go with a easy to remember naming system, something like child_male_0000, or with a type 4 UUID, to avoid naming collisions.
Perhaps something gender neutral in case they wish to change their gender or name later in life
I’m very partial to early bronze age names.
Epirmupi
Manishtushu
Tiglath
Inshushinak
Labarna
Naramsin
If you look at the Sumerian or Elamite king lists, you really can’t go wrong.
Manishtushu is nearly the worst name i have ever seen. Kids would absolutely wreck that guy all the way to college.
He’ll have to get tough or die
Bill or George or anything but Manishtushu, I still hate that name!
You already have a bunch of suggestions, here are a few more of my favorite sci-fi names/characters that I didn’t see…
Hari / Salvor (both from Asimov’s Foundation series) Rico (from Heinlein’s Starship Troopers) Leto / Duncan (both from Herbert’s Dune) Ender (from Card’s Ender’s Game series) Filip (from Corey’s The Expanse series)
Honorable mentions Fry (Futurama) Jar-Jar (Binks)
