Please help struggling to find boys names beginning with P

All our other children's names begin with P so seems only right to carry this through to our last.
The thing is I don't love any names.
I like something unusual
Our other names are
Posy🩷
Petal 🩷
Pippin💙
Poet💙

Please send help 🙏

Would love to know what you decide to go for / what it’s likely to be OP!

@Pinkiepromise789 , you forgot Planqueur, an elegant but underused French name.

😂

I love Patch! As someone suggested, can be Patrick on birth certificate/ go by Paddy if he likes. I know an adult Patch and always loved it, never thought it odd!

I'd go for Perry

Percy is sometimes slang for penis just FYI

SprigatitoYouAndIKnow · 19/09/2024 21:31

All your names have hard "p" sounds at the beginning, so I would avoid something like Ptolemy or Phinneus that have different sounds. If you like Pumpkin, you can totally have a different P name at the birth cert name and then a nickname for when he is younger. It is then his choice whether he is Patrick, Paddy or Pumpkin as a teen or adult.

ohmyohmy123 · 15/09/2024 22:48

each name you already have has a vowel in second place. You have o e i o so either a or u next.

Pacey would fit and pace is a nice nickname.

Love pilot but worry about nicknames p

Every one loves pilot!

Have to say well done to MN for the restraint shown on this thread. If OP was on a wind up they would be very disappointed!
Very 'outing' though...

Don't understand your comment

@Leggy123 , you have posted a list of the names of your children and someone might recognise you from the names.

I've posted my DC's names (having namechanged) but they are Harry and Olivia or Chloe and Jack type names, so I don't think anyone would think 'That has to be Duch'.

FuckoffeeBeforeCoffee · 21/09/2024 18:08

Understand?

They’re saying that the names of your other children are very unique so people might work out who you are in real life.
