To go with an odd surname? (Storm).

We liked Ash/er. It doesn't really go.
We quite like Elliott, Rex (too doglike for me, though), Xander, Caleb, Conrad and Kai (Kai Rooney?). I'm aware that not all actually fit our description! Any ideas?

Sorry I took ages to come back Thanks (Sick DD3, the only way to get her to sleep was watching a repeat of Katie Morag. If this baby was a girl, I'd be tempted with that as a name...)

So many names! miffy all those names are names of (adult) member of the family. I love them all, traditional names are very strong and serious and are perfect. Skiving yeah, Inget what you mean! It'd be even worse with Luca!

sorenna love Saul. Solomon is my DBro's name actually! I love love love Saul but DH vetoed it. Apparently his hamster was called Saul and therefore the name is taken. Hmm Tbf, I vetoed a name of his for a rather stupid reason from his perspective, so I'm going to try wearing him down on it!

everlong Sebastian and Patrick are nice. Hamish is the name of our rather clumsy poodle and I don't think it would work iyswim. I don't really like Gullivwr (Gulliver's Travels) but I like the sound just not the association in my mind? Thanks!

Whatever you do, don't go for Peter. It's Millett's own brand of clothing and footwear Grin

How about John, lovely strong name.

Dominic
Marcus
Patrick

I like Rex. I think now that Max is popular Rex slips through without sounding too doggie or too 'King'. It's just similar to Max, but different. I

I like someone else's suggestion of Benjamin Storm...

Kikibee · 01/12/2013 19:13

Why has no one suggested Samson? Confused he was the original strongman Grin

Like all your suggestions except Kai. Prefer Zander to Xander, though. My ds is Axel, would go well with Storm too I think. Another recent thread suggested Julius, which I think is strong. I have a crush on the name Roy at the moment, but nobody seems to agree (including dh).

RatHammock · 02/12/2013 13:25

Sebastian Storm is the best name ever! Bar none.

RatHammock · 02/12/2013 13:26

Call him that then please can he marry my DD and they will be Sebastian & India Storm. Grin

MrsT2007 · 02/12/2013 14:02

Edward, with Ned as a nickname. Ned or Ed Storm sounds cool

BoyMeetsWorld · 03/12/2013 12:22

Ned Storm = amaaaaazing!

shoobidoo · 03/12/2013 14:05

To my ears Rex Storm sounds like Wreck Storm - I don't like the s's running into each other.

Nor do I really like Seb Storm.

But I think these all sound fantastic
Cameron Storm
Benjamin Storm
Quentin Storm
Reuben Storm

Sebastian Storm is a terrific name. Deffo think it should be something beginning with S.
