Boys Names... Need Inspiration

Hi everyone,
Expecting a baby boy early in the new year and feel like I am just scrolling through baby name websites and forums with no inspiration so looking for some ideas.
We love the name Albie but we know so many little Albie's we feel it will be too common in our area so that's what we are rather settled on for a middle name.
At the minute we have Jace Albie and Reign Albie on our list (not a huge list at the minute haha).
Looking for names that will go with our two girls and our other little boy's names which are Petra, Francesca (Frankie) and Ted.
Open to any suggestions and ideas... Smile

I love the name Theo.
Ted and Theo go well together.

Ours is going to be Eric Arthur

I don't think Theo works when you already have Ted, and it is very popular.

Luredbyapomegranate · 27/11/2021 12:16

I don’t think Ted and Theo together are too much of an issue - Ted is short for Edward as well as Theodore.

But you could go for Leo? - which solves the similarity problem and is less popular.

Theo is gorgeous but I do think of Ted and Theo as very similar as they are both shortened versions of Theodore.

@user1498683185

I'm really sorry but I really really dislike both Jace and Reign. Reign is SO Kardashian and Jace just seems like 90s American to me. Albie is a bit nothing-ey as a full name, although nice as a nickname for Albert or even Alban.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 25/11/2021 00:50

Jace and Reign seem a very different (more modern/trendy?) style to your other children to me, so I wouldn't use them personally (I don't feel sibsets need to "match" exactly but some pairings do sound a bit odder than others). I adore Petra btw! And Albie works well with Ted.

More names similar in style to Ted imo:
Jem
Kit
Hal
Xander
Robin
Ivo
Bram

I love Jethro!

Luredbyapomegranate · 24/11/2021 23:27

Your kids have lovely names. Please don't call the new one Jace or Reign - they are really grim.

Albie is sweet - Arnie, Ernie, Bertie might be an alternatives

Jesse, Jethro, Jude, James, Sam, Leo, Eli (Elijah), Joe (Joseph), Nathan, Max, Milo, Robin might work with Albie.

How about Rain rather than Reign?

Perhaps I wasn’t clear: your other kids’ names are nice, Jace and Reign are execrable.
