Along the lines of Arthur, Jasper.

Having a bit of a block on names, with the exception of the two above. I’m quite set on a two syllable name but not immoveable!

Oscar, Peter, Walter, Xander, Asher, Victor and Connor seem the obvious first names of a similar sound (plus Casper instead of Jasper?). Or the surname as first name route: Fraser, Spencer, Cooper etc

But some people pronounce their “ur/or/er” very similarly to “ah” in which case you have a lot more options like Luca, Asa, Ezra, Noah, Jonah, Judah … and probably a zillion more I haven’t thought of!

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 30/09/2024 21:46

Or if it’s just a similar style but not sound you are after then some of my favourite 2 syllable ones are Owen, Orin, Evan, Samuel, Thomas, Ivo, Edward, Rufus, Maxim, Wilfred and Alfred.

There are a bit of a mix - but then I think Arthur and Jasper are slightly different despite both being popular - Arthur I see as a retro classic and Jasper a bit quirkier.

Some great suggestions here, thank you!

I was indeed having a mental block, as you’ve all shown there are plenty of names that fit my criteria!

Interesting re Arthur and Jasper, why so?

I see them from a (Tudor) history perspective, they were relatives.
