We are struggling with a boys' name that would go with Benjamin, known as Ben. DS doesn't like any of my choices and vice versa!
Names I've suggested:
Charlie
Samuel
Joseph

Names he likes:
Jonathan
Lenny (No way)

Grateful for any thoughts

We have a Ben & Charlie (Benjamin & Charles)
But also know a Ben & Sam
Ben & Alex
Ben & Edward
I think it goes with most fairly traditional names

I have a Benjamin, a Joseph and a Billy. I think Jacob, Joshua, James and Isaac go quite nicely with Benjamin too.

Lachie we like as DH Scottish and I'm half Scottish. It's quite common among people we know up there

Fair enough. I've only ever met one Lachlan and he went by the full name so that's what it sounds like to me shrugs
