Hi ladies, I am due in October and my 5 year old son who has Autism is set on a name for his brother it’s Roger, but it’s one of them names I hate.. My son name is Robbie and I would love something that match with it.. I just can’t find one I like.. 😴😢

no problem, report your own thread and when it asks why you are reporting it, ask for it to be moved to baby names x

My children’s name don’t ‘match’ as such, I just chose what myself and DH liked at the time. ☺️

Lochlan/Lochlyn
Teddy
Ernie
Albie

HelmutShmacker · 17/06/2020 13:33

Robbie and Rhys / Reece!!!

MrsGilly1 · 17/06/2020 13:34

Hi,

How about Reggie? X

Or how about...

Robbie & Johnny
Robbie & Tommy?

Roger was our choice for second child's middle name if she'd been a boy. It's my Dad's name. I'll admit I'm biased towards it because my Dad is awesome and the only Roger I know.

We were going to use Frederick (Freddie) for the first name

Hi OP,

My DS is autistic too so I know how fixed the thinking can be!

Is it worth diverting DS's attention to a favourite programme /book that has lots of good character names to see if you can move him to non-Roger options?

IMHO, names that work well with Robbie are:

Alex
Max
Olliver/Ollie
Adam
Noah
Matthew
Tom/Tommy
Sam

Daniel/Danny
Xander
Alfred (Alfie, Freddie)
Jacob/Jake
Joseph/Joe
Aaron
Theodore/Theo
