Can't find a boys name I love - brother to Ella

50 replies

Imsoontobemummyto2 · 27/07/2014 20:59

I am imminently expecting a boy to be a little brother to my daughter Ella. I can't think of a name that I really love. We would like something relatively traditional, and perhaps (though not necessarily) Scottish as we have some Scottish ancestry. We are really struggling. There are loads of girls names I love but really struggling for boys' names. We both like names like Thomas, Alexander, Alastair etc but none of them are really jumping out at me. Any ideas would be much appreciated!

Not Scottish and totally blatant jazz connection - in fact probably too much like an compilation title, but...Ella and Louis?

latika · 28/07/2014 23:54

I love the name Ella and also love Ethan and I think they go well together!

Cole is my fave boys name, and I think it's Scottish.
