What would you name a brother to Maud and Persephone (who often goes by Sephy)?

I'd have the traditional spelling, though.

I bloody love that name. I just wish I'd known of it before my own children were named.

Anyway, I don't think sibling names have to "go" or "match" in any way. They're individuals. Just go with what you fancy, it'll be fine.
Some great suggestions on here though.

Bloody hell, I can't believe how awful some people are being about the names of children.

Why would op come back to this thread?

Different to tell someone they're not keen on a potential name, but these are the names of her children!

I was thinking 2 syllables might be your friend.

Aloysius of course
