Here’s our list for DS2, a brother for Samuel. Which would you choose?

George
Alexander
Arthur
Jack
William
Jonathan
Matthew
James
Zachary
Max

Any other suggestions? Thanks

Matthew or James from your list. Daniel, as suggested by a PP, too.

What about Christopher?

All great names,

George- lovely name, goes well with Samuel but v popular if that bothers you
Alexander- as above but also has some great nn options Xander, Aly etc
Arthur- lovely name
Jack- great but v popular
William- as above
Jonathan- nice name but perhaps a little dated, love the nn Jonny though
Matthew- again a little dated perhaps
James- lovely, goes well with Samuel
Zachary- nice but perhaps not as classic as the others
Max- ditto

You have great taste in names.
They are all very nice but would go with Jack.
Joseph?

Not RTFT. I really like Samuel (and Samson).
George - yes
Alexander - yes but know lots of them
Arthur - it's ok
Jack - know so many
William - it's ok
Jonathan - I like it and John(n)y
Matthew - yes
James - my favourite
Zachary - currently overpopular
Max - yes.

The one I initially thought of was Daniel, but it isn't on your list. I would choose Max or Jonathan (Jonny/Jonty).

Definitely Jonathan! It's so underused, sounds really interesting now, and you have the brilliant options of Jonny, Jon, or the v cute Jonty.

The others are all ok but most are more well-used classics so not as interesting. Jack, Max, Zach definitely overused.

Zachary then they have the same number of syllables so go together

I have a Samuel, siblings are Leo and Felix - Leo’s middle name is Alexander so I’d go for that from your list as it was nearly his first name.
