Dutch boys name suggestions please :)

I have an uncle Henk and an Uncle Jan. My brother's middle name is Jan.

We both like Johannes (full form of Jan).

It will be for a middle name. Any suggestions?

How about Arjan? Or Yvo?

The most popular baby boys names right now seem to be all variants of Lucas, luuk etc., and then very "western" names, lots of jaydens/jayson/Kevin! (yes, for real! ;))

At creche tbh you wouldn't immediately think I was in NL, my son's best friend is Jasper.

There's also a caspar, brother of merlijn.

Joris
Jasper
Thijs (sp?)
Max

My favourite is Bram (which DH vetoed ).

Daan
Kick (2 of my colleagues recently used this - old Dutch name and so cool!)

Should check my class lists from last year for some more (or shake my head a bit to jog my memory )

And btw Johannes is also shortened to Hans.

Love Johannes!

Right, here goes.

Willem
Erik
Thijs (although may be difficult in England)
Teun (also difficult)
Pieter
Anton
Hans
Peter
Karel
Jan
Paul
Jasper
Laurens
Marnix
Max
Martijn
Tim
Tom
Ties
Rolf
Jacob
Jeroen
Frederik
Klaas
Robert

Let me know which ones you like and I will try to think of more!

Incidentally, two names I really like in Dutch but which do not work at all in English: Freek (freak?!) and Bas (bus?).

You possible also won't want to go with Stijn ("stain") or Grim - 2 Flemish boys I once worked with.

Pim is also nice.

I like Bas as well. Lots of variations - Sebas, Bastiaan, Sebastiaan.
