boys name...

[ghostspirit]

im looking for a boys name that gos ok with sir name jones. some people think anythink gos with the name jones but i dont think it does i feel it need to be a little different but not overly different. but a name that will set it of a bit because the name jones is so common.

i was thinking maybe issac/isaac... i keep spelling it wrong so maybe its not such a good idea :/

i dont want anything with the j sound so nothing starting with j. or g such as gorge

max... i cant mess the spelling uo for that hahaha

Oh well, Olivia is lovely. Oliver is definitely out then.
How about Oscar? I love "o" names

Bonzo our Max got that book when he was 3 months old

And only one way to spell it.

How about a lovely welsh name:

Gethin
Tom
Gareth
Guito
Owain
Dafydd
Dewi
Dylan
Rhodri

All go very well with Jones.

Arthur, Seth, Reuben.

Iolo

Owain

Bryn

etc

but what is the AIBU please?

My eldest was going to be Max if she'd been a boy :)

Other names on our boy lists were:

Harvey
Hugo
Louis
Raphael
Jasper
Oscar
Beren
Oliver
Freddie
Reuben

Elliot, Noah, Leo.

With a one syllable surname , you can have two or more for the first name.

Heston
Dylan
Trevor
Gary
Barry

Sebastian
Sebastian Jones sounds lovely !

Ezra Jones?

I'm just going to put this out there, what about something a bit zingy like Hercules? Nobody will forget Hercules.

I'm kidding, when DS1 was asked what he'd like DS2 to be called he drew up a small hugeessay list of the most ridiculous names. We had Hercules, Boris, Jeremy Piven, Kuzco, Hades (he watches too much Disney Channel, I concede) and Zelda. For the first 9 days of DS2's life he was referred to by all and sundry as Zelda and I was tempted to make DH cry when I registered him by using it as an official middle name (DH is very Tory-middle-class-proper). I chose to behave myself and now that DS2 is 4, he refers to himself as Zelda so the circle of life is complete.

If only there was a specific area of this site that deals with baby names, called something handy like 'baby name finder' it could really take off.

Amos

A lot of the names suguested - Ethan, Noah, Freddie, Isaac - are very popular, not "a little bit different" at all. Especially Isaac and Noah.

Inigo?!

Rollo

Hector

Felix

Igor

Titus

Cedric

Casper

I love oliver or ellliot

Cole

Ferdia

Ivan, Ivo, Eric, Gabriel, Zebby.

Oberon
Ajax
Mercutio
Romeo, Brooklyn and Cruz
Prospero ( in the hope he prospers in life)
Bruno

Elvis
Corin (as you like it )

Ernest?

Has a ring to it.

Silas
Rupert
Timothy
Darryl
Mack
Laurence

I think that one syllable names like Max are too short with Jones. Sounds curt and abrupt. Just my personal opinion but you did post it in AIBU

I would (and have) considered
Dylan
Owain
Laurence (Laurie)
Sebastian
Alexander
Dominic

I think you should consider J names as well. I think it's really cool to have an alliterative name
Jonathan Jones
Jeremy Jones
Jacob Jones

Also liking some of the suggestions
Elliott
Gabriel
Oliver (objectively this is nice just has bad associations for me!)

People have different ideas about 'a little bit' different
I think that names like Peter, Steven, George are too common with Jones because everyone will know someone called that (or a shoe shop)
Isaac is looking to be the latter day version of something like that
If you like biblical I met a little boy Ezra lately and I thought that was pretty cool
