A brother for Ronnie?

Help!
Ds2 is due anyday now and we have no name!

Ds1 is called Ronnie.

Dds name is fairly normal sounding, but not in the top 100.

DP has suggested Alex, Theo and Ryan, I don't like any of those!

I would like an old fashioned name to match Ronnie, preferably out of the top 100 names, something uncommon but not daft.

Any suggestions? Smile

Be careful what the name and nn sound like with Ronnie - for example 'Ronnie and Vinnie' sounds a bit like a 1950s comedy duo. Might be better not to choose a name ending in 'ie'.

I came on to suggest Victor, Vincent or Frankie (DS's name, short for Franklin), but see there are lots of likeminded people! So I give you… Calvin! You could shorten it to either Vinnie or Cal, versatile!
