A brother for Zara..

[Flopsy145]

Looking for some ideas, my husband likes quite classic names that work well in England (from a pronunciation pov) and I like more Celtic/Scandi/nature based names. We have a daughter called Zara. Surname is very common in England, VERY common.
My favourites at the moment are Arthur, Cohen, Bowen, Finn, Max, Torrin and Eddie. Eddie and Arthur probably the two that work best for our joint likes but husband has not committed 😂 so coming for some more names to add to the list!

Cohen - No.
Bowen - it's a surname. Son of Owen. Not keen.
Finn - ok
Max - ok
Torrin - place name, makes me think of torrid. Not sure
Arthur - very popular.

Given that the surname is very popular, I'd go for something a bit different.

Suggestions based on your names: Corin, Owen, Fraser, Magnus, Gawain

Cohen - No.
Bowen - it's a surname. Son of Owen. Not keen.
Finn - ok
Max - ok
Torrin - place name, makes me think of torrid. Not sure
Arthur - very popular.

With a common surname I'd definitely avoid a common first name like Max, Finn or Arthur. He will hate being so hard to identify/found on sites liked LinkedIn especially if he starts his own business.

How about Magnus, Quentin or Torin?

Kaspar or Casper. It’s both Scandi and (rarely) a Muslim name which matches it to Zara.

You can’t use Cohen. It’s really inappropriate if you’re not Jewish / weird if you are.

Max is great with Zara

Call him Torrin Kristian Max, as that would work well with Zara! 😂

Caspar

Angus gives the nick name Gus which I love

Rufus

Austin

Tex

Torrin sounds great with Zara

The Zara I know has a brother called Henry.

I like Zara and Max together.

May I ask why you choose the name Cohen? Are you aware of what it means? I mean no disrespect but I do think it's a bit of an inappropriate choice.

Zara is a beautiful name and I think that Finn goes very well with it. I like Max too.

Otto, Sven and Lucas also come to mind.

Finn, max and Torin are my picks esp with Zara.

Torin is good with Zara. Also Rory and Tobias.

When I saw the title of your thread I immediately thought Zara and Leon
