Boy names - brother for Roman

[Biscuitsarelife1]

Hi all,
Currently pregnant with baby number 2- sex is unknown and is being kept a surprise. We have our girl name picked out but struggling with a boy name. DS1 is called Roman. We have a short one syllable surname starting with H if that helps too!

Any suggestions much appreciated please, and any middle names to go with the first name!

TIA xxx

no im pointing out that the baby name threads are very critical
no need to patronise 🙄

@Thorfire , but I haven't seen any negativity about the name on this thread. I'm not being patronising.

It's a popular name so lots of parents must like it, but it's also an adjective so people will comment.

Sorry if you don’t like my suggestion of Troy. I certainly did not mean anything by it. I like the name Troy. I like the name Roman too. I accept Troy is not the greatest hero in Thomas Hardy’s novel but I still like the name.

OP I'm with you. I have a relative, who would be over 100 now if he was still with us, called Roman. Pretending it's some modern invention is silly.

Maximus

I meant modern as in recently popular. I'd say the same about Arlo and that's not new either.
Roman Polanski must be in his 90s and he's the most well-known Roman I can think of and Roman Kemp is at least 30, so I was aware that they're not recently created names.

@Els1e , I know a couple of Troys. They are the same age as me. Seems an underused name and quite nice.

We have a son called roman, his brother a year after him we named troy. 😊

Roman is a lovely name! I immediately thought Dexter. Also like (and think they would go together):
Jude
Milo
Felix
Tobias
Flynn
Rafe
Magnus

Thank you all - I ended up having a boy in July (a whole 4 weeks early) and we called him Jude x

I know a Roman whose brother is Hugo.
I think you need something with 2 syllables.

Sorry didn’t get to the end of the thread ooops that will teach me

@GeneralOwl haha no you're fine! I loved the name Hugo but husband was not on board!

Congratulations!

Congratulations op, I love both Roman and Jude.

Congratulations and thanks for the update! Jude goes so well with Roman! 🥰

Ennio. Roman is lovely ❤️

Ooh sorry! Jude is also a gorgeous choice!
