Other suggestions also welcome. 😊

Many thanks in advance

I would choose Remy out of those, maybe Remington nn Remi.

Rafferty
Declan
Fletcher

EggyPegg · 29/10/2020 08:46

Monty was my instinct on your list.

Marmaduke
Felix
Casper
Barney
Tate
Quinn

Monty is nice. If you go with Remy you don't need Remington, showing my age but that was the make of my old typewriter.

SaffieSoph · 29/10/2020 09:15

All Iovely names! I like Monty and Ralph from your list best. I think they both go well with Sullivan.

Fivemoreminutes1 · 29/10/2020 09:22

I like Reuben and Freddie best.

Chester
Sidney
Willoughby

doubleshotespresso · 29/10/2020 09:28

Gilbert!

Just joking! Congrats OP.
From your list I love Minty and Reuben

Mousepad20 · 29/10/2020 09:35

Monty as a nickname for Montague.

DirtyDeeds · 29/10/2020 09:37

Mike 😁

Firebird83 · 29/10/2020 09:39

How about Nolan, Quinn, Rafferty, Niall, Reilly, Connell, Brennan, Flynn, Rory or Aidan

10questions · 29/10/2020 09:40

Monty

Not Ralph

AllPlayedOut · 29/10/2020 09:43

Reuben.

Mish85 · 29/10/2020 09:48

I know a Sullivan with a brother Vincent. I've always thought they go so well together. Sully and Vinnie or Vince.

Congratulations 🎊

CorpusCallosum · 29/10/2020 09:57

Reuben

Bubbletrouble43 · 29/10/2020 09:59

Monty goes well and I like it. Also like Freddie.

Subla2401 · 29/10/2020 10:52

Love the name Sullivan! What about Theodore, Arlo or Otis?

SeanCailleach · 29/10/2020 10:56

Of your list I like Marley the best. The other names seem less wonderful than Sullivan which is a really great name.

Quizeerascal · 29/10/2020 13:35

Parker
Hudson
Brooks

Out of your options I like Remy and Monty but feel like they need a longer surnamey type name behind them Montgomery or Remington perhaps. Osbourne nn Ozzy might work too

finallychangedmyusername · 29/10/2020 13:47

Congrats OP!

With a brother Sullivan I'd expect another "surname name" - suggestions below:

Everett
Bennett
Callahan
Cameron
Donovan
Anderson
Edison
Calloway
Rafferty

WeAreFromThePlanetDuplo · 29/10/2020 14:03

Sullivan is excellent.

Bertie, Monty and Freddie are a bit chinless, IMO.

I love...
Gulliver (but a bit problematic with Sullivan)
Balthazar
Greer
Lysander

LittleTiger007 · 29/10/2020 16:07

I like Remi or Reuben. Lovely names. I wouldn’t spell in Remy though as that’s a drink (lovely drink though!)

Whatsyourflava · 29/10/2020 16:27

Marley by a mile

I love the name anyway but also think it sounds great with sibling name.

Names like Reuben are far too common with a sibling called Sullivan

Oneandabean · 29/10/2020 16:33

I love Reuben

Squeakerfoot · 29/10/2020 18:05

Monty and Ralph sound best with Sullivan to me.

Changethetoner · 29/10/2020 20:45

Bertie, but do use Robert on the BC

WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll · 30/10/2020 02:20

Was it only in our area that Remy used to be used as a nasty slur against less academically-able children? Confused

I'd have to discount it instantly on those grounds, but maybe (hopefully) it's passed into obscurity now?
