Brother for Jemima and Abigail

[WednesdayRebel]

Jemima Rose (Jimmie) and Abigail Ivy (Abby) are expecting a baby brother in July. My husband and I have had no problems agreeing on girls names previously but can’t find a SINGLE boy name that we both like.

OH is deadest on Patrick which I’m not a fan of. I quite like Cameron/Lachlan/Ciaran.

We both kind of like Finn or Jack (which is a family name) but as OH/baby have a single syllable surname we’re not sure about single syllable first names.

Any suggestions or advice?

Oh dear 🤨 Deadest = deadset. How do I edit a post?

You could do Finlay or Jonathan if you don't just want Finn or Jack.

I really like Henry or Oliver with your girls names.

Love your girls names. I think Benjamin (Ben) goes nicely with them.

Callum
Caleb
Connor
Zachary
Jonas
Elliot
Lawrence

I was thinking Benjamin too and Benjie or Ben for short as both would go with Jimmie and Abby.

Love Cameron or how about Caspar or Quentin?

I'm with your husband, Patrick is gorgeous and underused

Lachlan is ok. As is Ciaran. I really do t like Cameron as it makes me think of David Cameron

I find Finn a bit bland on its own. I like Jack and it isn't as popular as it once was.

Other suggestions you might like...

Jemima, Abigail and Aaron
Jemima , Abigail and Leo
Jemima, Abigail and Joshua
Jemima , Abigail and Lewis
Jemima, Abigail and Callum

I really do love Melina, Abigail and Patrick as a subset though

Patrick is great!

How about:
Jacob
Dominic
Daniel
Rafferty

Ha I was also going to say Benjamin sounds nice with those

So many Finns!

Your DDs have 3 syllable names with 2 syllable nns so I wouldn't pick a single syllable for your son.
Jonathon (Jonty or Jonny)
Benjamin (Benjy)
Felix
Daniel
Philip
Robert
Sebastian
Geoffrey
Alexander
Robin

I agree, I'd avoid a single syllable name or nickname. I like Cameron, Felix, Quentin, Callum or how about Magnus?

I was going to say Ben as well!

Nicholas
Dominic
Andrew
Gareth

Russell
Christopher
Crispin
Joseph

Mungo, it just seems to have a ring to it that goes with your girls' names.

ps I like Patrick, too. Mungo Patrick?

The only Abigail I know (it’s me 😂) has a brother named James and we were always complimented at how well the names go together.

Sticking with Irish names, how about;

Ronan
Fergus
Oisin
Fionn
Rory?

Your girls names are lovely.
What about Timothy (Tim for short)

Angus
Tristan
Callan
Rory
Struan
Oscar
Theodore

Jemima, Abigail and David
Jemima, Abigail and Thomas
Jemima, Abigail and Henry
Jemima, Abigail and Jonas
Jemima, Abigail and Peter
Jemima, Abigail and Marcus

Logan
Grayson
Jude
Noah

Immediately thought Dominic

Thank you all! Some great suggestions here including a few that are on the long list (Dominic is a contender).

I love Benjamin but we made a firm decision to avoid any other Beatrix Potter characters when we named Jemima 😅

Jemima, Abigail and Conrad.
Jemima, Abigail and Russell.
Jemima, Abigail and Michael.

I've just looked up Mungo and it is a saint's name, plus it means 'kind'. :)
