Love Magnus!

I quite like Roscoe, which is apparently old Norse?

Also Lachlan / Lauchlan is nice, or maybe Stellan? Or Struan?

More Irish but also Padraig or Donnacha are quite strong names.

Malcolm was my first thought, but i guess no good if husband dislikes.

Gunnar is lovely.

Torben is a Danish spelling of Thorbjørn/Thorbjörn which is an Old Norse name meaning Thunder Bear. That's quite cool and not overly used in the UK. Sounds good with Magnus too

heyyellowyellow · 10/06/2021 02:13

Magnus is a phenomenal name and I like lots of the suggestions.

How about Fergus or Ramsay?
