Brother for Percy

Wondering what names would go well with Percy, for a boy. I don't like names that are common and I don't like way out there names. I'm more a old man kind of baby namer... Thanks in advance for suggestions Wink

My great grandfather was Percy and his brother was Reginald.

I'm not a fan of old-man names personally, but I do really like Percy.

My contributions: Monty/ Montgomery, Edmund, Abraham, Basil, Victor.

Why not look up when Percy was at its peak of popularity (there is a site where you can do this, can't remember what it is though) and see what else was popular at the time?

Of what's been mentioned I like Victor and Arthur.

I know a baby Reggie. Brilliant name. And would go with Percy.

I think the old names need a revival.

Ihatepeas · 07/03/2014 00:55

I love the name Percy (not that op has asked anyone to comment on her sons name!)

I know a lovely little Percy with a brother called Gregory if that helps.

I also love Arthur, Albert, Wilfred, Wilber and Rupert. They all go really well with Percy.
