Ok, no idea if DC2 is a boy yet but I literally have no idea what we'd call a boy. None. We don't agree on anything. Any ideas on what goes well with Astrid? Girls names also welcome but less critical.

What about Kasper, as in Kasper Yule from Borgen. A very cool name and it goes really well with Astrid. I also like Magnus and Erik. Please don't use 'Cosmo' - although it's quite cool and unusual- Astrid and Cosmo, when used together just sound a bit too 'spacey'!

I know an Axel. I have heard a couple of GnR comments about his name but no doubt by the time he is an adult nobody will know they existed anymore. He is Swedish though. Love the name but way too out there for dh.

I've been thinking about this and came up with jasper. Gorgeous name and hopefully fits the bill of being known but not common.

Although Sebastian might not be different enough I guess.

All 4 are work contacts of mine. The first is UK born of British parents and the other three are from western Europe. Love them all. Though I think Stefan is my favourite.
