Eck names

[SleepWellBeast]

I have realised I really like names with a hard C sound or even better, eck. But I haven't found the right one...

If I was traditional I'd go with Rebecca - i like the becca sound but this is not our style at all

If I was a bit braver I'd go with Echo but I am not famous enough for this.

I recently have started liking Beck for a boy and this feels the right level of unusual.

Other names I like are:
Juno
Sunday
Indie
Wren
Cara

Or

Milo
Ace
Fox
Sonny

I prefer short names so they can't be shortened but can live with 2 syllables. I like unusual names and if you can find one with a Ca or Eck even better.

Any ideas?

Rekha
Rivka
Jecca
Olek
Ivanka
Iska/ iskra
Jessica

And with a ca at the start
Caroline
Cadence
Cayden
Cameron
Cassian/ Cassius/ Cass
Cassie/ Cassandra
Catrin/ catrina/ catriona
Callum / Cal

Erica?

Hecate for a girl
Declan for a boy

Boys:

Dexter
Maddox
Hector
Breck
Brock
Brooke
Hendrick
Frederick
Decca

Huck?

Ekaterina
Erika/Erica
Enrique

Carys / Cerys
Eric / Erica
Frederick
Roderick

In parts of Scotland, 'Eck' is a rather old-fashioned abbreviation for Alexander. There was/is a famous cartoon character, 'Wee Eck'. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oor_Wullie

Eck is also sometimes used to refer to a certain former First Minister.

Anton Dec?

Thanks all. So far, Iska is going on the long list. And maybe Jecca if it's not too posh for us!

Caroline/Catrina too long and not our style. Love Cassius but know this would be shortened to Cass and don't want to shorten.

Erica, Hector, Declan not our style but the right sound. Prefer shorter though.

Hadn't thought of X sounds and of those Maddox probably most suited to us.

Huck is a surprise entry that is probably closest to what we like. Maybe verging on too American though?

Love Carys and Cerys but no Welsh links - can we use it anyway?

Aware of the Alex/eck thing through a football manager - not looking to actually use eck!

Alecto
Alec

Germanic diminutive names have that sound a lot
Marieka (Mar-e-ka or Mar-i-ka), Hanneke, Annika, Janneke, Silke

I was born in Swansea but moved when I was 6 months. I have a Cerys lol. I think it can be used

Any child called Huck is going to be called Fuck within about ten minutes. And every teacher doing the register will probably have to concentrate very hard, at least for the first few weeks...

I love Iska and Silke. I also love Cerys. Do you have to be Welsh for it?

How about Caius if you like Cassius?

Beckett
Courtney
Beckie
Alicia

Luca
Isacc

Echo is lovely.

Otherwise Erica comes to mind first!

Scott
Maverick
Alec

Maxine
Roxana
Dixie
Trixie
Bellatrix

Micah
Brick
Max
Huckleberry
Chuck

I love cara

Marek
Alec
Yannick
Hector

Carys yes but not Cerys because it will get Serris/Cerise pronunciation.

Decca for a girl?

Famous enough?!
Who are you*? Reveal yourself!
