Jasper’s baby brother

44 replies

Hi, Jasper is having a baby brother but we want a name that suits and compliments his name too!

We like quirky & cool but still sturdy, classy names.

So far, I love Hudson. My partner loves Otis. I also love Otto as this is my Grandads name who passed away just a few months before we found out we were expecting. & another name I love is Teddy. Both Otto and Teddy would be potential middle names.

What is your preference between Hudson & Otis as Jaspers little brother?

Any other suggestions similar to ours? TIA x

We have very similar tastes as I LOVE the name Jasper but couldn’t convince other half. We already have an Oscar and I’m currently expecting baby no:2 who will be named Felix if a boy. Other names on my list were
Rupert
Sebastian
Ralph

Out of your choices I would opt for Otis 💙

Lea1437 · 03/02/2021 00:26

Rufus came straight to mind or Otis out of your options

Otis.
Don’t think Hudson is a name really

Other thoughts - Reuben, Jerome, Oscar, Tristram, Lawrence, Milo, Jethro, Ezra, Jonah, Victor

Jasper is nice. I'm not keen on your choices for his brother sorry (they sound too trendy to me - I see Jasper is more of a quirky but traditional name). Names that fit with Jasper to me would be names like Rufus, Felix, Tobias, Elias, Maximilian, Oscar, Rowan, Heath, Ezra, Lucian, Ivo, Asa, Gabriel, Atticus, Silas, Sebastian.

MercyBodle · 03/02/2021 03:43

Otis definitely.

Others, probably already suggested:
Rufus
Edmund (nn Teddy?)
Frank
Rupert
Digby
Wilf
Harvey
Wesley
Leo
Milo
Miles
Bruno
Douglas
Fergus
Magnus

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 03/02/2021 03:48

Ooh, love Magnus and Edmund (nn Teddy).

Ellmau · 03/02/2021 23:18

I don't quite see either of your choices with Jasper.

What about:
Conrad
Felix
Rufus
Leo
Miles
Francis
Barnabas/Barnaby
Maximilian
Roderick

Otto and Otis are both great names, but where I live (london) Otis is very popular....if popularity bothers you go for Otto

NoAuthorityHereJackieWeaver · 07/02/2021 11:15

Felix Otto

Constance44 · 07/02/2021 11:28

Hudson is not a nice name and definitely doesn't go with Jasper. You'd have one kid with a fairly classy name and one with a (quite ugly sounding) American style name. Nothing wrong with an American style name but you said you want a name to compliment Jasper. Names with a similar vibe to Jasper are ones like Felix, Rowan, Ivo/Ivor, Silas, Otto/Otis, Finn..

finallychangedmyusername · 07/02/2021 12:23

I agree that Hudson is a very different style to Jasper.

I like Otis with Jasper.

Other suggestions:
Cyrus
Rufus
Rory
Tobias
Oswald
Rupert
Barnaby

TinyCake · 07/02/2021 12:41

Otto is a great name, it won't go with Otis though.

Albert?
I don't like Hudson sorry.

TheVanguardSix · 07/02/2021 12:49

Otis! But definitely not Otis Otto.

How about Otis Rex?

alwaysonadiet1 · 07/02/2021 13:03

Otis.
Otto makes me think oh 'oh oh!'

Lawrence
Oscar
Felix
Xander

Katjolo · 07/02/2021 13:17

Hugo, Barnabas, Tobias, Sebastian

alwaysonadiet1 · 07/02/2021 13:18

Yes Hugo!
Barnaby

DragonPoop · 07/02/2021 13:21

Ooo I love Otis, it goes so well with Jasper!
Not keen on Hudson personally, I do like Otto too though.
Also like:
Jasper and Hugo
Jasper and Rufus
Jasper and Gulliver (nickname Gulli)
Jasper and Felix
Jasper and Fraser
Jasper and Ernest (Ernie)

The first one that came to mind was Owen as is Owen and Jasper Tudor ... not sure if you're going for that type of thing
