If we like Isaac and Leo...

[Ruththetooth]

... what else would you suggest? Our DS is called Isaac and we're expecting our 2nd baby but don't know the sex. The only boys name that we both really like is Leo but not sure we can use it as the in-laws have already used it for their cat. I really like Eli too but DH has vetoed it. We like short names (no longer than 2 syllables) and it needs to be what I would consider a 'proper name'.

Joseph, Reuben, Noah?

Ooh sorry just saw short name bit!

Really like Joseph but our cat is called Joe. Reuben is lovely too but doesn't work with our surname. Noah is a good name and will now be added to our list.

Jacob, Joshua, Noah, Daniel, Louis, Ethan, Ben, Alex, Dylan, Matthew, Joe.

Bit late with my post, you obviously don't want to name your DS after your cat!

Really like Albert and Arthur too but DH thinks they're too old-fashioned.

I say so what on the cats? Do the cats know their name? Do they care? Go for leo, it's a great name.joseph too. Both huge favourites of mine. No cat would put me off!

Asher
Cain

But seriously, whatever about the cat that lives with you I wouldn't worry about a relative's act's name being the same.

Whatever happened to calling cats fluffy and spot anyway?!

I have an Alex(ander) and dc2 will likely be Leo. Isaac and Alex sounds good!

Oliver.
