Possible brother for Seth

68 replies

Lookingforadvice123 · 30/07/2018 12:50

Expecting baby number 2 (we don't know the sex yet). We're 100% decided on Emilia for a girl, but are struggling with a boy as we already have Seth, which has always been our number 1 boy's name.

I like Jesse, and Freddie (the latter less so as it's SO popular where I am) but I'm looking for one I'm as sure about as Emilia. The complication with Jesse is that my sister is Jessica.

I also really like Jude but a close friend of DH's has used that so it's out.

Any suggestions?

If you're still looking for other suggestions:

Zachary
Aaron
Jacob
Jonathan (loads of nicknames and not very popular these days)
Nathaniel

I know they're all biblical but they're also all lovely names in their own right.

Seth and Caleb
Seth and Cooper
Seth and Joseph
Seth and Jacob
Seth.and Zach
Seth and Jesse sounds fab
I have a Seth and his two brothers names are in this list.
Our Seth could have been a Reuben but it doesn't work with our surname so the dog is called Reuben Blush
If I had another boy he would be Ezra.

I have a Seth who is now a young man who is 19 now. His brother is Dexter.
I would of liked a Gage or an Archer.

NotANotMan · 08/09/2018 20:26

Reuben of course

I like Jesse but it's a very Old Testament name, so a bit like Seth, and I thought you didn't want anything of that ilk.

TulipsInBloom1 · 08/09/2018 20:38

I thought Joel when I read the title.

Flamingosnbears · 08/09/2018 20:39

Joel come to my mind first...

daisypond yeah I didn't actually realise Jesse was OT as well 🤦🏼‍♀️ at least it's not one of Seth's brothers though ie Cain and Abel! Now I can just pretend it's an OT theme...

Reuben goes well with Seth

Ilovewillow · 09/09/2018 08:15

Jesse is a great name! I have a Seth too and we also liked
Gabriel
Rueben
Benedict
Gilbert and
Atticus

Good luck deciding!

I don't like Jude. (Probably because it's the German word for Jew? And if just doesn't sound nice imo.)

Suggestions (most of them admittedly already mentioned...):
Aaron, Nathaniel, Jeremy, Jonah, Elijah, Adam, Isaac, Levi, Nathan, Abraham, Benjamin, David, Samuel, Micah, Ezra, Asa.
