A sibling for Archie

I’m due soon with baby number 2 and we so far have one little boy called Archie.

We’re not sure what we are having and so far the list is narrowed down to Rufus or Angus for a boy, or if they are a girl, then Eliza or Felicity.

What do you think goes better with Archie?

Personally I would go with Rufus or Eliza. I don't like siblings with matching initials and I prefer Eliza because Archie and Felicity have the same end sound. I feel like Archie and Eliza are different but compliment each other.

Agree with pp, Eliza and Rufus go nicely with Archie! All nice names though x

Definitely Angus !!! Sounds amazing with Archie and Rufus is ok but too dog like for me and there's loads of rising popularity R names getting shortened to Ru or something similar (Reuben, Rupert) Whereas Angus is a bit different

I love Archie and Angus - very Scottish if you aren't!
I'm not a fan of Rufus. Eliza sounds great with Archie.

Love both Eliza and Felicity so cant pick between them

Eliza goes better

Rufus or Eliza

I think Rufus or Eliza.

I agree with pp Rufus and Eliza go best with Archie.

I really like all your names, but agree with pps that for Archie's sibling, Rufus or Eliza work best.
