Why are boys names so difficult???

[WillisTi]

We’ve got a little boy called Oscar, the only boys name we could agree upon at the time! We have another boy on the way now and can’t agree on a name at all!

The current list is:

• Charlie Willis
• Otis Willis
• Jasper Willis
• Otto Willis
• Oliver Willis
• Alfie Willis
• Toby Willis

What does everyone think? Any names we might be missing?

Thanks

Of your picks I’d definitely go for Alfred (nn Alfie) - as it has a very similar “retro popular stately/patrician” vibe to Oscar (Alfie as a given name is a bit too trendy). 2nd choice Tobias or Jasper.

Not sure about Charlie as it’s a bit phonetic alphabet with Oscar and personally as much as I like Oliver, I’m not that keen on same initials for same sex siblings if there are other options.

I'd avoid another O initial so that takes out Otis, Oliver and Otto.

I'm not keen on Alfie and Charlie, they're both so popular and very meh.

I like Tobias, less keen on Toby.

Jasper is the winner for me.

Or:

Jude
Hugo
Freddie
Jacob
Elliot
Dylan

If I had a boy tomorrow I’d call him William. I love Otto out of your list. I’ve recently met a baby Heath which I really like and I once taught a boy called Shepherd. He is a young adult now and everyone calls him Shep. A cool name for a very cool kid.

I'm with most that I would avoid another O name, especially Otis which really doesn't go with Willis. Oliver is the only one I like anyway. Otis and Otto are far too trendy and 'now' for me.

Charlie is probably my favourite from the rest of your list (Charlie has been used as a stand alone name for years so doesn't feel as nicknamey as some ie names). However, I did instantly think phonetic alphabet with Oscar and Charlie. I think you could still use it, but you will get a lot of comments.

Toby and Jasper aren't to my taste, but go well with Oscar and your surname. Alfie is ok.

My favourites for Oscar's brother ..

Charles Willis
Toby Willis
Quentin Willis
Mark Willis

Xavier Willis
Sebastian Willis (Seb)
Claude
Benjamin Willis (Ben)
Gabriel Willis (Gabe)
Jude Willis
Aaron Willis
Adam Willis
Leon Willis
Jonathan Willis (Jonty)
Christopher Willis (Kit)

Toby is cute. What about Luke? Benjamin? Sam?

I know an Oscar with a brother Alfie. So that sounds right to me. Also like Otis and Jasper.

Every single one of your names above were names we considered - great taste! We eventually settled with Miles .

Jasper is my favourite about of all of the above .

Toby or Charlie sound nice. I’m not keen on Jasper but like Caspar as an alternative. I would avoid another O name.

I wouldn’t pick another name beginning with O.
Jasper is lovely but sound / ends the same as Oscar.
I’d go with Toby from your list.

Other ideas:

Jake
Isaac
Lachlan
Albie
Leon
Spike

Like them all apart from Otis.

Jasper and Otto are my favourites.
