Brother for Leo

What is Leo’s brother called? I had loads of girls names lined up, but we are having another boy. Due imminently and we don’t even have a shortlist. I like classic but slightly unusual names. We can’t use Alexander or Oscar, as they are cousins’ names.

Francis, classic and not too familiar. Sounds nice with Leo.

How about Lewis.

Leo and Louis sound too similar

ActonSquirrel · 22/08/2021 18:07

My friend has a Leo and called her 2nd son Teddy 🤦🏼‍♀️ Not short for anything.

I like Luke. Mark. Sebastian.

Robin
Jonathan
Christopher
Peter

Say the two names together! Both lovely names but not together!

Pieceofpurplesky · 22/08/2021 15:51

OP I think Pearlybird is saying what I am - Louis (Lew-ee) and Leo have similar sounds

Pieceofpurplesky · 22/08/2021 15:50

Noah and Leo sound too samey
Francis not a fan. Old woman name (I know it's different spelling)
Gregory a bit 1980s Greg. May be due a come back?
Louis Louis and Leo too matchy
Arthur
Benjamin
Nicholas
all gorgeous, strong names.

@PearlyBird am I missing something? I don’t see an issue with Louis?

@PrimeraVez Caspar is such a beautiful name, unfortunately it has been vetoed by DH, but I think it is lovely.

So far I’m thinking some combination of any of the following:

Noah
Francis
Gregory
Louis
Arthur
Benjamin
Nicholas

PearlyBird · 22/08/2021 15:16

Louis with Leo ? 😵

randomusernameagain · 22/08/2021 15:15

If you liked Louis and Arthur then: Archie, Theodore, Percy, Sebastian and Francis.

PrimeraVez · 22/08/2021 15:15

We have a Leo and his little brother is Caspar

Also on the list was Elijah, Felix, Jude, Sebastian and Gabriel.

LaChatte · 22/08/2021 15:12

Nathan or Joshua
