Jarvis, Iggy Wolfie - please suggest names in a a similar vein

[persephoneplum]

I am 100% decided on Jarvis for our third son, however the husband is 100% set on Wolfie (Wolfgang full name).

I think we need to find an alternative which suits us both so at least we can go to the hospital with each of our names, plus a name we each like.

Parameters are:

• musical link (e.g Jarvis Cocker, Iggy Pop, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart)
• not made up or a musician's last name (like Jagger)
• fits with his brother's names - Theodore and Felix

I'm really not after critiques of the names Jarvis, Iggy and Wolfie, just alternatives in the same vein. Many thanks :)

Ringo
Perry
McCartney
Richie
Lennon
West
Cliff
Elton
Haydn
Britten

One Direction

I was only saying to DH last night if we had another DS I'd call him Jarvis (we were watching Pulp, and I may have been a little starry eyed, but I stand by it!).

Can I just say that if a man had referred to his wife as "the wife" on here, he would've been roasted alive!

What about Sebastian (JS Bach) or Ludvig (von Beethoven)?

Jimi

Freddie
Jett
Storm
Marley
Dylan
Wolfric
Hunter
Cash
Floyd

I've included conductors, on the basis that they are musicians too!
Gustav (Mahler) or Gustavo (Dudamel)
Franz (Liszt)
Igor (Stravinsky)
Lucian/Luciano (Pavarotti)
Thelonius (Monk - probably too similar to Theodore?)
Miles (Davis)
Claudio (Ribero)
Zubin (Mehta)

I love Lucian - I know Pavarotti is not "cool" but it's a beautiful name IMO and goes wonderfully well with Theodore and Felix.

Hehehe sanityclause, I think it's a little of today's demeanour showing through - I'm 26 weeks pregnant and got up early while he napped until 10:30am, did washing, got everyone brekkie, lunch AND dinner... while he napped from 4:30pm to 6pm. No nap for me and I get to get all the food for the family just like a regular week day. Not happy!

Will run some of these by him - many thanks!

My DS is named Nicky, after Nicky Wire from Manic Street Preachers. What other bands/singers do you like? (I love Jarvis, by the way!)

Floyd is fab

Otis (Redding)

Yes to Otis! Dc2 was set to be Otis but he's a she...

I think Otis goes well with Felix and Theodore too.

Sebastian would go well with Theodore and Felix.

Jesse
Otis
Travis
Gus
Abe (Abraham)
Rufus

Seth
Kurt
Damon
Eddie
Ziggy
Noel or Liam

Arlo (Guthrie)

Cole (Porter, and Nat King C...)
Johann (Sebastian Bach)
Carlos (Santana)
Axel (Axl Rose)
Ozzy (Osborne)
Levon (Helm)
Jethro (Tull)
Johnny (Cash)

Django?

Not sure. My husband wanted Wolfie for a boy and Flame for a girl; that way they wouldn't have to change their ames when they're famous rock guitarists. He even referred to my bump as Wolfie for a while but I managed to steer him clear in the end. Wolfgang is Eddie Van Halen's son's name aparently. Have you tried googling other rock stars to find out what they have named their children to get some ideas (obviously giving things like Moon Unit a relatively wide berth)?

Am liking Cole, Haydn, Otis and Axel.

Or:
Elvis
Gene
Reed
Sonny
Buddy
Tito
Elton
Manfred
Moby
Gram
Trent

Or apparently Apollo is the Greek God of music??

Syd (Barrett)?

Stone ( Gossard, Pearl Jam)

Guthrie ( Guthrie Govan, or Woody Guthrie)

Geddy (Lee)

Slash - well, maybe not, but how about Saul?

Miles ( Davis, or Myles kennedy)

Arlo and Django good

I like Syd!

I knew someone who called her son Bon after Bon Scott. It really suited him.
