Other names we liked were
Morris

Fergus
Alvy
I quite like Ira Ralph or Ira Morris.
Any other suggestions?
Our sir name begins with a 'G' and has two syllables

I don't think Ira Ralph flows well. The Ra sounds run into each other.
With Ira Alvy the As run into each other.

I like Ira Fergus, not so keen on Morris -- reminds me of Morris Minor.

Ira Marshall
Ira Cameron
Ira Nathaniel
Ira David
Ira Brendan or Brandon
Ira Henry
Ira Michael
Ira Marcus
Ira Hamish
Ira George
Ira Charles
Ira Jacob
Ira Benjamin
Ira Dominic
Ira Benedict

Thats the best thing about the name Morris in our opinion!
Like Ira Hamish (considered it for a first name, but thought it was a bit much giving a child a name where the only real nickname is 'Ham'!)
Ira Marshall is quite nice too.
Thanks for the suggestions.

Ira is a lovely name with a great meaning.

I think these combinations sound good:

Ira Morris
Ira Miles
Ira Nathan

We think so- i read it in a baby name book and swooned. It's just lovely.
More good suggestions, love Miles. Thanks!
