A list of unique and rustic middle names for baby boys. Short, one-syllable baby boy middle names that are both rustic and charming.

Choosing a name for your baby is serious work! A name is something that will stick with them for life. When we were naming both of my boys we wanted short middle names that were rustic and unique, but also charming and not so far out there.

Rustic baby boy names are becoming ever more popular. Some of the top baby boy names in recent years include Asher, Wyatt, Levi, and Axel. All of which are rustic and western sounding.

We love rustic sounding names, but didn’t want to use something that was extremely popular or trendy. Don’t get me wrong, many of these names are cute! Just not for us.

If you are looking for unique, short and sweet, one-syllable names for baby boys, you have come to the right place! I have compiled a list of my favorite rustic one-syllable baby boy middle names. We considered these when naming both of my boys so I wanted to share them with you today.

These names are unique, rustic, western, and charming. Many are related to the wilderness, forest, or sound like they are out of an old western movie.

With both of my boys, one syllable middle names seemed to work best with their first names. But, these of course can also be used as first names too!
