What are your favourite one-syllable boys' names? First name will be Peter.

Thanks all!

I think Peter John sounds lovely. Gus is my favourite single syllable boys name, but I don't think it goes with Peter very well.

IHeartKingThistle · 09/07/2013 12:17

Ooh I like Peter Jack!

Jack or Miles both definite contenders too.

Oh good grief! Freudian typo or what. I meant, he's going to end up with a second middle name and surname is quite long, but I'd like to give him a second name that he can use if he wants, and for some reason I think one syllable would sound nice with the rest of it.

Not Peter Mark. Tis a big Irish beauty parlour chain.

I like Miles.

I know a Peter Francis and had a relative named Peter Stanislaus. Why one-syllable?

Wbdn28 · 09/07/2013 01:48

John and George are both very nice. John is quite unusual at the moment.

Any reason why it has to be a 1-syllable middle name?

TrucksAndDinosaurs · 08/07/2013 23:52

Miles?
Ian?
Carl?
Hans?
Mark?
Noel?
Ray?
Sam?
Tbh I like James but thought I'd try and help.

Alisvolatpropiis · 08/07/2013 23:51

Bah - that's two syllables Blush

Peter Beau/Bo?

Alisvolatpropiis · 08/07/2013 23:50

Peter Albert?

birdofthenorth · 08/07/2013 23:44

Jude

Was going to say Max as well but Peter Max sounds like Betamax!

Bumbolina · 08/07/2013 23:41

Pan?

RosesInTheRain · 08/07/2013 23:40

Some great suggestions here, thanks. I especially like John, James and George. A couple of the others we can't use because of family reasons. I love Peter Rex too. Hmm lots of food for thought, don't know if we have found the one yet...

My Ds's middle names are Peter James, I think it has a lovely flow. I love the name Peter, I always imagine a real cheeky little boy.(just like I imagine my dad would have been Smile

DS's middle names are Peter Paul, despite not being at all religious.
