HELP! Naming our son!

Hey mums/dads!
I'm really struggling on naming my newborn son! The whole of my pregnancy me and my partner couldn't agree on a name. I loved Carter and he likes Chè (like Chè Guevara).
Our first born is called Cairo.
I was wondering if you had any suggestions of names?! I feel like I'm going crazy in the baby name books!
Doesn't have a to a 'C' name.

Thankyou ❤️

If you like Cairo you might like Kabul, Santiago or Kigali.

If you like Che you might like Fidel or Shay

Please do not call him Che.

'Che' is not a name, it's a nickname. It's simply an interjection used by Spanish speakers, especially in Argentina and some parts of Spain, to call someone's attention or express surprise. It would be like calling him "Hey!"

Guevara's name was Ernesto. Hwas nicknammed 'Che' because he was originally from Argentina and used the expression often.

Carter is nice.

I like Che and have a friend with the name (although she’s female). Short for Coelis (pronounced Chay-liss). She only really goes by Che though, it’s great.

You could post this on the baby names board. Lots of knowledgeable posters there.
But yes agree - Che is awful - no one will be able to pronounce it or to use the accent on a British keyboard. It sounds like a fairly immature choice - your DP is naming a child - does he actually have any ties to Cuba or Argentina?

I like Carter. If not some names I think would go with Cairo are :

Dashiell
Kingsley
Hudson
Lennox
Chase

  • good luck and hope you find something soon!
