Our little Evelyn is getting a brother in a short few months and as it stands-he is nameless! We don’t even have a short list, we seem to be really fussy! What boys name would you put with Evelyn?

Rufus is our cats name and I’m furious I didn’t save it for a son - give the cat a new name?

Linus
Hugh
Xander
Leo
Teddy
Silas
Harris
Nicholas
Giles
Jasper

Grin @ ‘Buffy’. I reckon Xander is known as a stand alone choice these days.

Some great suggestions already! Rupert is my ultimate favourite but OH has vetoed.
Can’t use Henry or Leo as they are nephews.
I also like Alexander with Xander as a diminutive but OH said no because of Buffy🙄🙄 and I’m not keen on Alex.
Thank you though!
