We are having a baby number 3 and it's a boy in September possibly August. I like slightly unusual names but not ridiculous!

I like these names but I'm not sure I'm in love with them! Do you have any ideas of similar types of names or any other inspiration?

Names I quite like:
Atticus
Zeph Zephan Zephyr
Caspian Cassidy Cassian Cassius

Names I like but wouldn't use!! Maybe middle names??
Hunter
Heath
Boyd
Phoenix

Anything along these lines or hippyish, nature, or just quirky nice sounding names?! Or maybe something related to September or August?
If it as been a girl I quite liked Blossom, Autumn, Tabitha, Juniper, Lyra! Just to give an idea...

Arley
Arlo
Otto
Ivor
Phoenix
Astor
Alban
Moses
Finian
Linus
Jonas
Johannes

I have looked after children with these names over the years (I've not made them up!) hahaha x

I know a little Quentin - love that name!

Or how about Caspar as an alternative to Caspian?

funnyoldonion · 08/05/2014 15:05

How about August nickname Gus, love this so much! I like your name taste too x

Stokey · 08/05/2014 16:02

Or Augustus - nn Gus

I like Zephyr, I know an Atticus nn Atty - which I don't like as much.

Cassidy sounds a bit girly to me and Cassius has bad connotations as murderer of Julius Caeser
"Yon Cassius has a mean and hungry look".

Astor is a great name, as is Otto.

What about Tycho?

Or a planet/moon? Jupiter, Mercury, Orion, Atlas

Oberon, Triton?
