we need to decide on a name for DS2, DS1 is Charlie which I LOVE, but so far not feeling as much love for other boy names. What do you think about:

George
Dylan
Jake (Jacob)
Rudy

?? Any other suggestions?

Rudy (Rudolph) is awful imo and has also the sound 'rude' in it.

The others are beter but not really to my taste. But YOU have to love your choices, not us .

sorry, better

What about Rory, that's what jumped into my mind and is kind of like Rudy?
I like Dylan that sounds good with Charlie. The others are not bad either (well not keen on rudy, but the rest)

We have a Charlie... I love the names Henry and george

IMO george is the best fit from your list above as it is the only other classic traditional name. I couldn't love my second choice boy's name either .. but in the end dc2 was a girl.

George - fine
Dylan - like
Jake (Jacob) - Jacob is lovely
Rudy - love it (on my list), but not with Charlie, too much eeeee sound

I would go with Charlie and Jacob.

I like George, Dylan and Jacob/Jake.

Agree with sonniebonnie about Rudy.

Jake or Jacob is great and goes really nicely with Charlie I think.

Something more classic like George, Henry etc would be too 'matchy-matchy' with Charlie for my taste.

Also Jacob is less common.

Thanks for your advice. I'd never realised that about Rudy so has put me off (always handy to throw out options to MN jury!) Thinking more and more about George since is goes so well with Charlie and is also a family name. Will keep haunting the baby name board until August though!
