A sibling for Byron?

[DiscoBiscuits]

It took us a ridiculous amount of time to agree on Byron's name. DH has....eclectic taste name wise. So now number 2 is cooking and I am flummoxed.
So far we have:
Atticus (Byron was very nearly called this but I've gone off it a bit)
Caspian - we both like but don't love this.
Tiberius - DH favourite.
Aegeaus - Dh's other suggestion.

Girl wise we have only 1 name we can agree on:
Ariadne.

And that's it, we're at a veto impasse.
Help please?

[DiscoBiscuits]

Flavia, I am a bit unsure on. I can't help but think of the beautiful dancer from Strictly and any poor daughter of mine is more likely to be a bit clumsy and accident prone, rather than graceful & elegant. It wouldn't seem fair!

[ILikeRed]

Please don't name your child Tiberius....

[DiscoBiscuits]

It is better than DH other suggestion of Xerxes though? I have to let some through the veto or he gets a bit miffed.

Byron and Phoebe
Byron and Oscar ( is perfect but you DH said no!)
So ....
Byron and Oakley? Elijah?

[Rockinhippy]

Auberon, Rodin, Michelangelo, Remus,

Augusta, Persephone, Asteria, Minerva,

[boardingschoolbaby]

Celeste?

[DiscoBiscuits]

Minerva is lovely! I forgotten Minerva. On the list it goes.

DH had suggested Remus 1st time around and I vetoed but it is growing on me. (or maybe in me?)

Phoebe is lovely but we know of at least 3 locally.
Elijah is similarly very popular.

Oakley is on for consideration, thank you.

[DiscoBiscuits]

I have been pondering Celeste and Serena, both very pretty. Thank you

Has to be Antigone. They'll be calling themselves ronny and tiggers when they're teenagers, which still works as a coupling.

[DiscoBiscuits]

I had not thought of that.

I really sort of love that!

[CloudyBayDrainageSystem]

And Hugo if its a boy.

[DiscoBiscuits]

DH has vetoed Hugo! I should sell him shouldn't I?

But then who'd do the washing up?

[MsMarple]

Xerxes is a cool name!
Although, Lysander sounds good with Byron...
I'd avoid Antigone, for the same reasons that I wouldn't go for Ophelia.
Gaia? Seraphina is my favourite girls name, but maybe not eclectic enough for you?

[Consils]

Why on earth do you want to call your children weird names.
Is this normal.

[DiscoBiscuits]

I love love love Seraphina.

Guess who vetoed it?

[DiscoBiscuits]

Why do you consider them weird?

[PippaMiddleton]

Bruno or Sabrina

[DiscoBiscuits]

Bruno - name of beloved family dog

Sabrina - name of DH ex.

Darwin
Conrad
Roland
Raymond

It is when you have two kids in the class called Unique and you have to call them Unique One and Unique Two that you long for the odd Bill.

Same goes for Bear and all Greek names in London preps.

[toobreathless]

I have a Lenin & a Nadaya (cats)

& a Hazel and Celeste (DDs)I think Celeste goes quite nicely with Byron?

Like all your suggestions except the one beginning with A but that's because I hand no idea how to pronounce it & would struggle with the spelling.

Or:
Rowan/Rohan
Hector (Tor)
Percival
Dane
Lawrence
Clement
Edwin
Ernest
Gray
Ambrose
Gregor/Gregory

[Consils]

and Missy.

[DiscoBiscuits]

DH loves Darwin!

[toobreathless]

Ooooh! I see you have already said you like Celeste!
