Names ending in a "O" sound

40 replies

I love the way names like Milo and Margot sound. We don't know the gender of DC2 yet but I'd love to find a name ending with an "oh" sound.

Any suggestions?

Tierno. A West African boy's name.

Allegro

Jago

I see what you are saying about the surname but I think it depends on the name. The problem with the surname Wong is there are a lot of ways you can twist it.

Cleo

Inigo ( as in Jones and the English form of Ignatius)
Jago
Jacopo/Jacobo

Marco but poor child would be called Minty

Oh I do love Coco.

My DH would never ever go for it, though.

A friend of mine has DS1 Tiago - think it's Argentinian.

My favourites are

Jago
Bruno
Rocco
and Margot for a girl.

A lot of the boys' names do sound Italian (because they are Italian!) but people seem to be a lot more relaxed about their name choices than they used to be. We know 2 Enzos, a Leonardo, an Antonio and a Marco - and none of them have any Italian links.

My DS's very unusual O name has been mentioned Grin Have never met another one...

Oh another thought on this O business. If someone had a surname like Wong, would you avoid a name like Aniko. I think it sounds a bit like 'annie go wrong'

Is that silly or do you hear that too?
