Sibling for Polly- comprehensive musical knowledge required!

Dd is Polly because we were listening to Nevermind and said 'that's her name!'

Now she will have a sibling. It's really important to us to have a name from music. Girl we are thinking Luna - last track on Smashing Pumpkins Siamese Dream. Possibly Chloe - Motherlovebone.

Our musical tastes are 90's grunge, alternative punky type stuff.

Are there any good names out there, especially for boys? Jeremy- pearl jam - isn't in the mix and is what most people suggest! Don't really want to use musicians names either, so no Kurt, Trent etc

Suggestions?!

Darley- super cool member of the pumpkins?

Sorry- that should obviously say darcey.

Great thread! We're struggling with names for second child and are big music fans so following with interest.

Eleanor - both Eleanor rigby and from folding stars by Biffy Clyro.

Ooh so many ideas. Love the Spencer idea, that does kind of fit! Sonographer was prepared to say maybe a boy but obviously we don't know for sure at 16 weeks. Is it wrong that I will be disappointed if it's a boy and I can't use Luna?!

Do like Spencer and Floyd a LOT.

Complete tangent but we also like atticus. I'm a lawyer and always think Atticus as in to kill a mockingbird. The vaguest connection to music is that Atticus Ross is Trent Reznors composing partner.

Love Atticus too for the same reason. Luna is beautiful. Lucky baby is going to have a great name one way or another.
