List of names for Reuben’s brother

[Moonshine160]

If DC2 is a boy we’re struggling to pick a name. Our DS is Reuben William (one syllable surname). Please can you rate our boys list and suggest others we might like?

Jasper
Douglas
Maxwell
Tobias
Edwin
Caleb
Sebastian
Gabriel
Seth
Hugo
Samson

Thanks everyone. Some great suggestions here!

@Whatsyourflava thank you. And in response to your previous questions we are still struggling with girl names too but have narrowed it down more. On the list are: Alice, Eleanor, Nina, Elowen, Maeve, Delilah and Iris.

Seth is a great name but you can’t use it with Reuben as Reuben and Seth are the brothers in Cold Comfort Farm, a satirical comedy duo of Neanderthal rural basic-ness.

@Moonshine160 oh wow really love your girl list! Especially Delilah, Iris Eleanor Alice Maeve and Nina 🥰. Don’t like Elowen as much as I think it will get misheard for other names and that would annoy me.xx

Solomon with Sol for short? Or Josiah?

Ezra
Asa
Isaiah
Abel
Amos
Gideon
Isaac
Jonah
Jesse
Micah
Zachary

I know brothers Reuben and Quentin.

I also like Douglas and Samson.

I think Samson might be a bit difficult to live up to if your ds turns out to be a sensitive type with a slight build. It'd be like calling a shy little girl with mousey hair Carmen.

Delilah had rather a colourful history. A bit like Jezebel.

Love Sebastian and Nina.

Lovely list OP.

Favourites on your list are: Tobias, Sebastian, Jasper and Maxwell.

I think Lucas, Theo and Jacob would also make good names.

Of your girl list Alice and Eleanor are my favourites.
