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?!

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.
