Brother For Ludo

I'm after inspiration!

I'm 30 weeks pregnant with DS2 and totally stuck for a name.

I'd like to go a little more classic this time but still avoid being one of several in his class.

Ludo and ....?

op - i had a moment of inspiration in the car today

CONRAD

i think it's the one Grin

Pancakeflipper · 19/04/2013 18:07

Ludo and Yoni.

Perfect.

JennyFromTheBog · 19/04/2013 18:07

ps, one last suggestion.

Viktor - yes with a K. I would never normal use a k if a c will do, but Ludovic and Viktor seem to work together so for that reason I want to suggest Viktor not Victor.

JennyFromTheBog · 19/04/2013 18:05

second Barnaby/Barney adn TOby, those would work.

What about Costi ?
Ludo and Costi

JennyFromTheBog · 19/04/2013 18:03

that's a hard one to match to. I wouldn't go for another O name.

Ludo and Teddy would go well without being too matchy matchy. Eg I like Bruno but think Ludo and Bruno wouldn't sound great together.

Ludo and Remus (that just popped into my head) Confused
Ludo and Enda
Ludo and Julius
Ludo and Dom
Ludo and Jasper (hate the name jasper but it works with Ludo)

i was going to suggest Lucien, but that would be 2 L names
Gilbert is fantastic though, as is Hector.
What about Duncan, Barnaby, or Monty?

I have an Edwin who sometimes gets called Ned. Do you prefer that to Ed if it does get shortened. I do not like Ed or Eddie either but think Ned is cool

Thank you everyone for your suggestions.I'll come back in 12 weeks and let you know what we pick.

I think from the suggestions so far Monty, Hector, Jasper, Tristan and Ivan best suit your brief. I love Ivan.

How about also Wyatt, Boyd, Piers, Gabriel. Agree another 'o' ending would be a bit much.

Except for Hector your list seems a bit safe - Edwin and Edmund are a little more unusual but both shorten to Ed, which I think you said you didn't like?

Tristan?

madoldbird · 17/04/2013 10:46

Alastair! My favourite boys name ( but despite 3 ds have not been able to use it Sad ).

Ludo and Alastair

BaronessBomburst · 17/04/2013 10:38

Yes, I love Fabian! What about Florian?

barnet · 16/04/2013 17:28

Another vote for
Monty (Montgomery) and
Fabian

ScrambledSmegs · 16/04/2013 17:15

Oh PLEASE go for Gilbert. Such a great name. I love the nn Gil too, although know it's not to everyone's taste. Classic yet unusual.

It was one of the names on my list that received an early veto from DH. The man has no taste Angry
