Inspiration needed - names that go with Aaron & Joshua

35 replies

Got ages to go but this time really can't think of any names we like so we're trying to put some thought into it now to see what grows on us. Hopefully we'll find out if we're having a boy or a girl next month but for now, we're looking more at boys names as we both have a strong feeling it will be another boy.

So, we have Aaron and Joshua at the moment, any thoughts as to what goes well with these names?

Thanks :)

Are you wanting to stick with or break away from the O.T. feel?

LineRunner - just want something that 'goes'. Our current names were chosen just because they were names we liked at the time. Well, I always liked Joshua but dh really wanted Aaron for our first (as Elvis' middle name and he's a big Elvis fan! Wink), when ds1 was born I looked at him and actually thought yes he looks like an Aaron so I agreed to that. I was sure Ds2 was going to be a girl and we both agreed on Amelia but when we found out he was a boy, we decided to go back to the name we were originally going to use for Ds1.

HelpOneAnother - I will start the list with that and see what dh thinks :)

So maybe Bibilical but not too Biblical, eg

Adam
David
James
John
Benjamin

Jesse was the name of Elvis' stillborn twin brother - I struggle as to whether it is a really nice thing given your husband being a fan or whether it is a bit odd.

Thanks for all the ideas and sorry for not coming back soon (pregnancy problems and was worried about thinking names in the end!).

Anyway, will have a look through these suggestions as he was confirmed as another boy and we're struggling with names.

Thanks :)
