Please help us come up with a name for DS2! At the moment we like Freddie, Joseph, Zac, and Arthur in that order, but open to suggestions!

Thanks.

Hi, any news yet on the baby name - such a wonderful time, as well as Jacob, Josh and Jared i also have a beautiful princess Sidonie, if i do have another boy I would love Joseph or Jonah if a girl Stevie. I think having the same initials is nice.

Hope88 · 30/01/2012 22:49

Joseph

LexieB · 30/01/2012 22:05

Isaac

I have a Jacob and a Joseph, i think it goes lovely together. My problems started when Jack arrived. Now i have no idea who im talking to most of the time and nor do the kids. Ive found 1,2 and 3 work wonders :) Same initials are a nightmare...

Clary · 28/01/2012 17:07

Ohh OP I like your ideas!

Least fave of them is Zac, others all lovely. Especially Arthur and Freddie as agatha says Grin

I know brothers called Jacob and Harry which is nice; or how about Fraser, Angus, George, William (tho that is very popular)?

Lollyheart · 28/01/2012 17:02

I have a Jacob, his brothers are Owen and Fraser Smile

Allthesanityinme · 28/01/2012 16:55

Reuben
Samuel
Benjamin
Zachary (think that Zac needs a longer version to go with Jacob)

ScoutJemAndBoo · 28/01/2012 16:18

Isaac.

JennaTailor · 28/01/2012 16:04

Jacob and Tobias (Jake & Toby)

Littlecherublegs · 27/01/2012 10:21

I think another biblical name like:

Noah
Benjamin (or Benedict)
Issac
Saul
Daniel
Reuben

Matthew, Mark, Luke or John ?? Smile

FizzyLiz · 26/01/2012 21:27

Some lovely names thank you... quite a few we can't use due to close friends/family having used them already, but will show dp this thread and run a few past him. The trouble is I like a lot of boys names but there isn't one I've found I love...

ReneeVivien · 25/01/2012 22:37

I love Arthur, Asa, Levi and Isaac. How about Seth, Reuben, Miles, Noah?

Sparklingbrook · 25/01/2012 22:34

These threads always make me feel bad. When we named DS2 we didn't give a second thought about whether it went with DS1's name. Blush

Rhinopotamus · 25/01/2012 22:32

I have an Isaac and a Jacob and people always comment on how well they go together. Jacob's middle name is Zak, so love that too.

Collision · 25/01/2012 22:30

Jacob and Josh

Jacob and Zac

Jacob and Max

Jacob and Theo

OriginalJamie · 25/01/2012 22:28

I wouldn't go for the same initial, so not Joseph

I also like Isaac

What about:

Matthew
Michael
Asa
Levi

Great suggestions, thanks! Really like Elijah and Isaac... Good point about Alfred, although we know a couple already. And thanks for those to avoid ;) Had actually considered Edward at one point then realised the Twilight link!
