Boys name to go with Spike

[Yarnie]

So. DS' name is Spike and DC2 will be arriving next year. We had a very tough time finding boys names we liked first time round, so thought we'd better get started on finding another boys name, although gender is currently unknown.

I was thinking of going with the Comedians of the 50s/60s theme (Lenny, Woody, Sid), but couldn't find anything I liked. Also not sure "themes" is the best way to go when naming a baby!

Spike is obviously quite a punchy name and I want DC2's name to be able to hold it's own.

Names ending in an "O" sound are out as they sound terrible with our surname.

I've spent two weeks idly browsing names and not found ONE that I liked .

This is going to be tough.

Anything spring to mind?

For me it would have to be Bob.

Jed or Jett? I like Lenny for a boy.

Vlad??

I know a Spike and a Buster sibling set

Nooooo, not Lingus (tis Aer Lingus for one, and cunnilingus would be the absolute worst)

I'm going to resist suggesting Snoopy..

For some reason I immediately thought of Yannick when I read Spike.

Or how about:
Bo
Axel

There are two boy characters in Angelina Ballerina called Spike and Sammy. That's if you don't mind calling your sons after fictional mice, of course.

I like Spike and Buster.

Vlad is great too.

Bob is way too scary (I'm still traumatised by Twin Peaks!)

Ted

Mac

Wilf

Buddy

It has to be Angel, surely?

Buster gets my vote!

Spike sure is unusual, but I like it!

New one - Solomon?

HAD to add, just seen your profile pic. Spike is GORGEOUS. Love his cardie, too. Did you knit it yourself?

Ronnie
Eddie
Des
Bernard
Marty
Rik

Your little Spike is an adorable munchkin! Gorgeous.

I really like Sid and Gus.

Thinking of short, spunky names...hmmm...

Rudy
Milo / Miles
Heath
Zane
Seth
Jude
Flynn
Raoul
Rex
Ralph
Garth
Earl
Leif
Chey
Tate
Bram
Arthur - Art or Artie for short?

Mungo

Oh!

(just looked at photos)

Faaamily I love your list.

Spike, from your photos, really really suits his name! I think Iggy for sure.

Iggy or Buster gets my vote

I have an Iggy and if I had another boy and a different surname I would go for Spike. Iggy and Spike. Loovely.

Baxter?

Huxley. Hux for short sounds pretty cool IMO.

What about Dexter?

From the suggestions already make I think Sonny or Ralph would be great.

Damn it! Was about to suggest Bruno, but no 'o' sounds.

Brodie?
I'm not normally one for surname-names, but for some reason I like this one.

BTW Your son is Gorgeous!!
