Boys name like Sybil

We have a little girl called Sybil, we’re expecting DC2 next month and have a girls name picked out but we’re stumped on a boys name. I quite like Arthur but it’s getting popular and I’m not a huge fan of that. We also like Amos but not 100% on it yet. Any ideas?

I think you're onto a winner with Amos.

Digby is cute but maybe too doggy name? And he’d inevitably get called “diggers”!

Love Ernest 😍

Curve ball ased on Arthur - Alan? It's easy to spell, it's another "A", it's also ancient and Celtic and it's not super popular at the moment.

Not Cedric it is such a wet name.

Cedric Diggory was anything but wet.

Arthur is lovely. How about Edwin?

Basil obviously Wink

If you have Sybil and Cedric, you’ll sound like quirky Harry Potter fans.

SirChenjins · 20/10/2023 16:04

Got to be Basil - or Manuel to throw people off.
