Brother for Matilda

[Mushroo]

We’re really really struggling with a boys name! We loved Matilda from the start and we don’t have a boys name we’ve had the same connection to.

Middle name will be Peter for family reasons.

so far we have:
Frederick
Oscar
Douglas (Dougie / Doug)
George
Alexander
Edward (Ted / Teddy - I do not like Ed so that puts me off a bit).
Louis

Which do you prefer? (Other suggestions welcome!)

Yes, nothing like the classics!

Matilda was on our shortlist, and our shortlist for boys was Alexander, James, Hector, Patrick and Douglas.

Franklin
Wilson
James
Arthur
Myles

Love your list. How about Angus?

I like all of those names - stick a pin in your list and any name would be perfect.

Frederick or George would go really well with Peter.

Tristan (and Isolde) and Matilda

We thought our Edward would be Teddy but he's very much a Ted. I think Ted or Ned with Tilly or Mattie is lovely x

Although Matilla the Hun beats every other name! Love it

My Matilda has a Joseph.

Oscar is really lovely! I'm having the same dilemma. Pregnant with my first and we've already had the girls name sorted for years, but if the baby is a boy, we're stumped. We actually really like Oscar and Oliver :)

I know a Matilda and Barnaby. I feel like this fits with your other options quite well.

Matilda and ..
Alexander Peter
Leopold Peter
Geordie Peter
William Peter
Dougal Peter

Bruce
Ned

Matilda & Freddie sound great together! Also like Douglas.

Matilda & Rufus
Matilda & Robert

Thanks all, loads of great ideas here, and reassurance on the names on the list!

I know a Matilda and Monty.

Arthur sounds good

We have a Matilda and our boy name was Ivo (eye-vo). Had another girl though.

Tilda is short for Matilda too and some of those names go really well.
What about Gregory?
