Brother for Silas

Looking for first names that fit well with Silas - surname is two syllables and starts with W. I like Andrew but DH not so keen and I'm not entirely sure it goes well with Silas.

Could he not just be Drew? I think that works with Silas.

PearlyBird · 27/08/2021 20:59

Drew is nice.
I like Reuben and Saul a lot, both on my list for my son tears ago.

Issac, Jacob and Ruben are my faves I think they go!

Givemethatknife · 28/08/2021 00:23

I like Reuben but it is very popular, compared to Silas..

Jesse, Jethro, Jerome, Nathaniel, Blaise, Kester, Francis, Alberic, Augustus, Julius..

Balonzette · 28/08/2021 08:30

Silas and Phineas would be PERFECT.

I think you need to go with something old, strong, maybe biblical or a saint's name?

Silas and Phineas 100% my favourite
Silas and Caleb
Silas and Moses
Silas and Reuben
Silas and Malachi
Silas and Isaiah
Silas and Barnaby
Silas and Amos
Silas and Ezra
Silas and Cassian
Silas and Felix

I think that most of the names on this list will sound fab with Silas:
