Brother for Saskia, Emmeline and Harriet

[Enterthedragons]

Super shocked after 3 DDs that we’ve just found out DC4 is a DS!

I’d quite like another 3-syllable name. I like these but not in love with any yet...

Theodore
Jonathan
William
Zachary
Leopold

Favourites? Other suggestion?

TIA

I think Theodore goes perfectly with your DDs names

I thought Felix or Oscar, but if you want three syllables then I like Dominic

I think I might agree with you Awkward. Theodore does seem to tick all the boxes and I like the nicknames. It’s more popular than the girls’ names but I don’t suppose that really matters does it?

Any ideas for middle names that work nicely with Theodore?

Theodore James
Theodore Henry
Theodore Thomas

Would you use a family name as the middle name? Maybe your DH?

Theodore William
Theodore Ambrose
Theodore Atticus
Theodore Frederick
Theodore Asher
Theodore Ezra
Theodore Isaac
Theodore Barnaby
Theodore Elliott
Theodore Fraser
Theodore Francis

Balthasar sounds like a Pokémon character..

Benjamin
Sebastian
Dominic
Lysander
Hereward
Alexander
William
Nicholas

Theodore Mark
Theodore Merlin
Theodore Charles
Theodore Felix
Theodore Flynn
Theodore John
Theodore James

Before I opened the thread my immediate thought was Jonathan, go with that, it's lovely and underused

Theodore
Lytton
Rupert
Alexander (timeless)
Edward

Your girls names are so beautiful.

Edward is gorgeous! How about Edwin?

I like
Rupert
Jasper
Quinton
Rowan
Barnaby (I realise that this is the only 3 syllable name in my suggestions!)

Also Christopher (Kit?)

Theodore goes well, but by gum it's popular, and he will 100% be Theo and join the billion other Theos that sit alongside the Maxes and Frankies and Finns. I love the name by the way, but if you're looking for something even slightly unusual Theodore is not it.

Of your initial list, I would go for Jonathan to fit that bill and have a little Jonty.

I don't think if matters if you choose a more popular name than your girls' ones. There is more variety and creativity in girls' names so people tend to expect one step less unusual compared to their sister (s). And I don't think Harriet is unusual at all- I know a few. With your girls' names I'd go with something traditional- Edward is a lovely choice. Jonathan is great. I wouldn't go down the Lysander/Ambrose road- those are quite romantic names and your girl names don't really fit that. What about Dominic? Especially if he's born on a Sunday.

Sorry.....Theodore is great too.

Theodore Charles
Theodore James
Theodore Wilfred
Theodore Lucas

Really like Theodore with your girls names. William is a great name too!

I like Lucian.

What about Jolyon?

Underused class boys names:

John
Jonathan
Peter
Leander
Tiberius (we know one called Tibbi 😄)
Benedict
Myles/Miles
Anthony
Angus

We have a 13 yr old Gabriel and his name has worked well in 3 countries (relocations) it's classic and familiar in many cultures.

Or even David???!

Gabriel, Theodore, Benedict, Josiah and Frederick would fit nicely alongside the girls' names. I also think Otis, Edward, Samuel or Monty would work.

Theodore is lovely!!

Theodore James is what I’d go for.

Theo James (the actor) is lovely too .

Theodore is lovely. However you could use Benjamin correctly! It means last born and makes my teeth itch when given to first-borns!
