Need a boy name

I need a boy name and running out of time! DH and I can't seem to agree on anything...
we currently have an Isla and Finley.
We can't use Rory, Ruben, Oscar, Louis or Brodie due to cousins.
Any ideas?

Alec would go well. I met a charming 4 year old (who has a twin sister called Isla) on holiday recently called Alec.

I think Rowan or Roman would go really well with Isla and Finley

@SweetPeaPods , only if you don't mind it said as Locklan.

@user1492757084 , I like Lloyd, Clive and Hugh.
Simon is nice but I know a few my own age. Basil is OK but Basil Brush and Basil Fawlty.

I like Lochlan, do you think that's ok outside Scotland too? Live in England now despite being Scottish

I was going to suggest Callan. Fraser is lovely but maybe not with Finlay.
I also like Mungo, Murdoch and Lachlan, if you are in Scotland.
Otherwise I don't think you can go wrong with Robbie.

Logan seems the most obvious fit to me? - Top 100 popular, two syllable, subtle Scots vibe just like Isla and Finley.

Or you could also go even more strongly Scots with Murray, Arran, Angus, Hamish, Lochlan, Callan, Harris or Struan.

Ydkiml · 24/09/2024 23:54

Dane , Reed , or Toban

Lots added to the list thank you!
@PolaroidPrincess re surname names, I didn't think I did but conscious some names I don't dislike (Harris, Brodie) are surnames so who knows!
