Brother for Nirvana and Jude

263 replies

We are looking for a brother name to go with older sister Nirvana and older brother Jude.
I am in love with both dc’s names,Nirvana was initially named after the band that me and dp both really love but when we looked into the meaning it just settled it for us, and with Jude we got inspiration from the beetle song

these are some names that we like but can’t use:
Hendrix-we didn’t love the nn options and we weren’t quite feeling it
Fender-we loved the connection to Fender amps and guitars but it didn’t feel like a complete name for us
Bowie- dp top choice right now with possible longer name Boden but we already have a Beau in our family who often gets called Bowie
Blues-family don’t feel like it’s a proper name to use
Indie-my top choice and I’m trying to convince dp
Fox-this is my second choice but don’t like the nickname possibly of foxy

We are quite settled on the middle name options either Michael or Beesley after my late grandfather

I love your kids names @Zoomer122 so how about
Kingston
Rocco,Quincy,Franklin,.
I don't like Beesley it's not very pleasant sounding.

Floydthebarber · 07/06/2022 20:10

Rather than Fender, what about Gibson? It is an actual name as well.

RestingMurderousFace · 07/06/2022 20:07

😂

LovelyDaaling · 07/06/2022 20:07

I feel so sorry for the children.

RenegadeMatron · 07/06/2022 20:05

You know when you read a thread title, and you think ‘oh yes’, and when it also has lots of posts on it, you know you’re in for an entertaining ride.

That’s this thread.

TabithaTittlemouse · 07/06/2022 20:03

Fwiw op I do like your dc names I just think that it’s easy to go to far. Poor little voodoo child will get bullied.

@TabithaTittlemouse stppp I’m gonna period piss in my bed 😭😭

Period piss is also a good suggestion

TonyBlairsLover · 07/06/2022 20:00

In all seriousness, please pick something non ridiculous. Trust me they’ll be dragged through high school with a ridiculous name

Zoomer122 · 07/06/2022 20:00

I guess it’s just hard to please everyone hahaha
I was never into naming my children Simon or Richard etc. and yes I’m aware they are quite unusual but it dosnt mean they are unusable if they really hated there first names they always have there more traditional middle names to fall back on (Rose and Johnathan)

Please stop suggesting even more ridiculous names just in case op is actually being serious. Nirvana and Jude I'm sure must be (I hope!!) a wind up and as for Beesly, fox, lyric etc, they're just ridiculous.

Oh and axel is a really historically and currently popular name for German Shepherds and I also know quite a few dogs called Hendrix and three called ossie (Osborne)

AllThingsServeTheBeam · 07/06/2022 19:39

I'm not sure if this is a piss take or not. Some of these suggestions. Jesus. This baby is going to grow up and need to change their name

Jesus is by far the best suggestion.

Hallyup89 · 07/06/2022 19:59

You actually hate your kids, don't you? Most of these 'name' suggestions are bloody ridiculous and everyone will silently judge you.

WHY ask is Beesley is ok when you had the perfectly decent alternative suggestion of Michael?! Of course Beesley isn't ok!!!

Thank you @KayEmAy I think they are really cool too!i also love the suggestion of Rocky and I think that is actually a knew contender

Please don't. My god.

My uncles Staffie was called Rocky.

RenegadeMatron · 07/06/2022 19:57

I’m just here for the comments.

OP - @RoseslnTheHospital is right. People are polite IRL. You will absolutely get unfiltered comments on the Baby Name’s forum, however.
