Brother For Ludo

I'm after inspiration!

I'm 30 weeks pregnant with DS2 and totally stuck for a name.

I'd like to go a little more classic this time but still avoid being one of several in his class.

Ludo and ....?

I love Henry.

I'm worried it is too popular.

I know people here have different ideas about the "too popular" thing and that's cool, we're all different! But for me a name is a unique identifier and I am aiming to avoid really really well used names. But this time, more common than Ludo.

Henry is absolutely lovely and I think it really goes well with Ludo.
What about Theo?

Leslieannelevine · 16/04/2013 11:19

Vincent makes me think of Strictly!

Theo - too many O endings I think, although Ludo was nearly a Theo himself, I like it a lot.

If it helps with judging the popularity thing, I know more young Theos than I do Henrys.

Leslieannelevine · 16/04/2013 11:32

But Grin at Sir Didymus

TheYoniOfYawn · 16/04/2013 11:37

I was about to suggest Patrick, too before my formatting went wrong.

TryDrawing · 16/04/2013 11:37

I think Ludo and Patrick go very well together

Leslieannelevine · 16/04/2013 11:39

Ah TheYoni I like almost all of these, especially Nicholas and Edmund.

There are tons of names I like actually. I can't quite fit them with Ludo in my head. I am probably worrying unnecessarily but it seems really important for them to be of a similar vibe.

Leslieannelevine · 16/04/2013 11:41

Yes Sir Didymus is the one obviously! But two words or one? Or hyphenated Ellie-Mae style?

Jago.

I think Ludo and Jago sound lovely together, I like that they are both short names and I like the o at the end. It works well I think.
