Names ending in a "O" sound

I love the way names like Milo and Margot sound. We don't know the gender of DC2 yet but I'd love to find a name ending with an "oh" sound.

Any suggestions?

Arlo

Hugo, Leo
Coco, not sure if that's really a name though.

KittiesInsane · 15/09/2015 16:30

Juno, Hero, Io, Willow are about all I can think of for girls. Rainbow at a pinch!
Otto, Nico, Mario, Arlo, Beau, Carlo?

Do you think the boys names sound a bit Italian? We don't have any Mediterranean links in our family so would that be a bit weird?

Mungo, Rollo, Marlowe, Ivo, Iolo, Inigo,

Indigo, Maureen (Mo),

KittiesInsane · 15/09/2015 16:39

How about Joe, then?

Rollo, Cosmo, Inigo, Bruno. Most other boys' names ending 'o' do tend to be Italian I suppose.

Draco? Grin

The name Joe will always remind me of a weird bf I had as a teenager. Shame as it doesn't have the poshness of most of the other O names

I don't think Arlo, Theo, Leo and Hugo sound particularly Italian. Hugo, Rollo are quite posh but Theo, Leo and Arlo aren't.

Horatio ~ absolutely fab history as use as an English name, you won't find a better one. I also love Hero for a girl.

Oh another thought on this O business. If someone had a surname like Wong, would you avoid a name like Aniko. I think it sounds a bit like 'annie go wrong'

Is that silly or do you hear that too?
