Miles is the best of those even though I don’t like it. The other 2 are just awful.

Eenameenadeeka · 24/10/2025 08:21

I also vote Miles. I think it suits the other names.

Thanks! It’s been tough 🥵 Do you have any other suggestions? Open to all ideas!

I quite like Miles. The other 2 are surnames really.

EveningSpread · 24/10/2025 09:23

I love Miles. The other two sound American / common to me, sorry.

I prefer classic names so I’m not going to be much help to you!

My favourites at the moment are
Robin
Peregrine (but going by Perry)
Ralph (pronounced Rafe)

Miles, definitely fits best with your other DCs

Dempsey is awful sorry and I like Brooke for a girl but I don’t think Brooks for a boy works

Darcie, Spencer and Miles are nice. None of them end in the same sound which was a criteria we had for our own 😁 I just like it.

Darcie, Spencer and:
Beau?
Franklin/Frankie? Cute and cheeky for youngest bro. Franklin is totally the same vibe as Spencer IMO.
Caleb?

WaltzingWaters · 24/10/2025 12:48

Seems I’m in the minority but I like Brooks and think it works well with your other children’s names.
Don't like Dempsey at all and doesn’t work with Darcie.
I’m not a fan of Miles personally but I know a lot of people like it.

JillyGiraffe · 24/10/2025 20:14

Dempsey?!

pushthebuttonnn · 24/10/2025 21:16

How about Darcie, Spencer & Matthew?

Silverbirchleaf · 24/10/2025 21:37

Miles - choose this or Milo
Dempsey - surname, Dempsey and Makepeace (tv programme)
Brooks - Brooke’s is a female name

Suggestions-
Giles
Fraser
Sebastian
Felix
Richard
Flynn
Timothy
Nicholas

Flannelfeet · 24/10/2025 21:39

Darcie,Spencer and Harris

LivingTheDreamish · 25/10/2025 02:27

I like Miles with your other DC names.

DanielleVanWyk · 25/10/2025 02:40

I vote Miles :)

Vitriolinsanity · 25/10/2025 10:27

Of the 3 on your list Miles. I prefer Milo with your other names though.

Miles

ButtonMushrooms · 25/10/2025 22:18

I vote for Miles too.

motleymop · 25/10/2025 22:21

I like Miles and think it goes well.
Have you considered Mark?

Moveoverdarlin · 25/10/2025 22:22

They are all surnames to me. Miles, Dempsey and Brooks sounds like a solictors.
