Another lovely boy.

[Chimbleys]

Hello. I have a 3yr old called Rufus (Ru) and am expecting another boy in January. We have gone round and round with names and there's nothing that stands out.
Any ideas please?

Ryan (Ry)

I love Rufus, it was on our list for dc2. Names I think go well..

Caspar
Stanley
Quinn
Miles
Sidney
Jago
Otto
Wilby

Myles is nice
I wouldn’t go for another R name tbh. What about Max? Jasper? (Jazz) Toby, Joel?

Elliot
Rory
Ezra

Benjamin (Ben)

Oscar

Magnus but maybe two names ending in Us is too much.

Gabriel
Gideon
Felix
Milo
Ellis
Ivan

Alexander (Zan)
Sebastian (Seb)
Zachary (Zac)
Finley (Finn)
Gabriel (Gabe)
Troy
Carter
Kingsley
Theodore (Theo)
Dexter (Dex)
Douglas (Dougie)
Wilbur
I also love the suggestion of Casper. Although its not a name I’d ever use as.
I don’t like the abbreviation of Cas. I think it sounds too feminine for a boy.

Barnaby, Archie, Theodore, Felix

As Rufus has Latin origins I'd probably match with another name that has similar classical origins (so Greco Roman, sometimes via Hebrew) but that isn't Top 20 popular :
Felix
Leon
Elias
Lucas/Lucian
Hector
(Ale)Xander
Maxim(ilian)
Sebastian
Cassian
Andreas
Leander
Evander
Tobias
Jonas
August
Matthias

Someone else said Milo and I think that would be perfect!

Rufus and Milo
Rufus and Hugo
Rufus and Morgan
Rufus and Jasper
Rufus and Tristan

Thank you all. I'm not too keen on another R name and looking through the suggestions I realise I'm not fond of boys names ending in the ee sound.
Husband wants Fred but doesnt like Frederick and Im not sure Fred cuts it as a stand alone name.

Miles is good. Not Milo.
Jasper works.

Congratulations!

I know a Rufus with a brother called Wilfred. I think they go well together.

I like Rufus and also like Wilfred. You could abirten Wikfred to Wilfie, Wilf or Fred.

Already suggested, but I also think Ezra would work really well.

Milo, Hugo and Jasper too.

Sebastian or Caspar maybe? Or Francis / Franklin?

Shorten! Ffs, what is abirten?

Ivo
Hugo
Jago
Arlo
Oscar
Isaac
Quentin
Alec
Felix
Hector

I like previous suggestions of Miles.

Adam
Dylan
Louis

My top boy name was Rocco! Rocco and Rufus sounds amazing imo 😂
I understand it's not everyone's cup of tea.
So what about, Maxwell, Vincent, Leo, Cameron, Johnny?

Ok no ee endings
Here we go:

Laurence
Tristan
Curtis
Caleb
Wilfred
Cole
Idris
Eric
Sid
Peter

Vincent
Nathan or Nathaniel

Caspar!

I have a 2 year old Caspar so probably a bit biased.

James
Edward
Harry
Lewis
Riley
Aidan (Although according to a recent video by SJ STRUM "Teachers reveal the shocking name mistakes parents make" a lot of teachers associate boy names ending -den with naughtiness so maybe not?)

I adore Rufus.
Names I think go well (apologies for any repeats):
Hugo
Jasper
Jago
Sebastian
Benedict
Dominic
Nathaniel
Barnaby
Claudio/Claudius
Lucian

Rufus and Cosmo
Rufus and Elias
Rufus and Sage

Wow thanks. Super helpful.
I love Peter Douglas Jasper and Adam but dh isn't keen. Really love Jago but that's the dogs name and Miles was the boy at uni expelled for dealing heroin so cant get past that.
Dh has suggested Oscar. What do you think?
