Names like Chet

The only name my husband likes for a boy is Chet. Anyone got ideas for similar names? Names in the same world? He likes it because for Chet Baker.

If Chet is short for Chesney or Chester, what about Charlie?

Came on to add:
Gil (Scott Heron) & there's Gilberto Gil.
@Janie8 do you &/or your DH like any of our suggestions, or do we need to keep trying?

Thanks everyone! We quite like Duke but doesn't feel like 'the one'! The reason u Hve misgivings about Chet is that our daughter is called Etta and it feels like too much 'et' - what does everyone else think? Etta and Chet?

Also a big fan of Kit but my nephew is called that so it's a no go! My husband also likes Elis and we both quite like Stevie (after my Dad who died recently) so any names similar to those I'd love to hear too!.

Thank you!

Your children will be called Chetta. They combine too readily not to.

I'd expect Duke to be a big lolloping dog.

I feel like

Hal
Serge
Gene
Otis
Clem
Nico

have a similar vibe.

Stevie for your Dad is lovely too. Sorry for your loss.
