I'm finding it hard to choose names. I like Samuel as first name and Luca/s, or Ethan as second names. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Luca as a first name would be my choice. I love it.

LM Ivory is not a girl's name, nor a boy's name. We were being facetious.
but then Ebony isn't really a name either

Haha at the main reason against Ivory being that it's a girls name Xmas Grin

burgatroyd · 30/12/2014 16:18

Op, Ebony is perfectly lovely as a name!

How about Thaddeus, Thor, Johan, Micky, Xavier, Perry, Bob?

Panzee · 30/12/2014 16:21

You rotten lot, suggesting Ivory.

You all know it should be Ivor Edward.

CPtart · 30/12/2014 16:21

The Ebony I know has a brother called Charley.

livegoldrings · 30/12/2014 16:28

I do like the name Ebony really! I think the brothers name should also be a little unusual but unrelated to Ebony.

IfNotNowThenWhen · 30/12/2014 16:32

I can't believe some one suggested DracoGrin how about Voldemort. Ebony and Voldemort Smith.

TheWhispersOfTheGods · 30/12/2014 16:35

Leon, Jasper, Casper, Conrad, Mason, Porter, Lorcan, Harley, Hunter, Arlo, Rueben, Rafael/Rafferty, Wolfgang?

Sebastian is lovely too, as is Luca. Ethan I'd say was a bit too similar to DD.

I'd go for something a little more 'out there' than Samuel tbh, Ebony is a little more unusual and I'd want to match that - i know that they spend max 16 years being 'XXs brother' but still.

WhirlyTwirlySnowflakes · 30/12/2014 16:36

Samuel Ethan is lovely.

Deerhound · 30/12/2014 17:23

Samuel Ethan is gorgeous. Not sure if it matters how well it goes with his sister's name tbh.

if it does matter to you, Jude, Luca and Leon are great and go well imo

Ebony is lovely btw

LMSunshine · 30/12/2014 19:00

Thank you all for taking the time to respond, some lovely names that I had not considered, especially Ario and Perry. Thank you.

Samuel Ethan is lovely. And will go well with Ebony, which is also a lovely name.

EnriqueTheRingBearingLizard · 30/12/2014 22:00

I do like Luca, but if you wanted unusual and to go with a theme you could think about Ash, Box, Dougie (Douglas) or even Albero, which is Italian for tree.

christmaspies · 30/12/2014 22:12

Box!!!! Hmm
