What would you expect Josh's brother to be called?

e.g. Benedict, Oscar, Arthur - arent the types of names you would expect to go with Josh.

But what would without being too predictable e.g. Jack?

Josh & Jack, because they seem to be the two most popular names at the moment.

My first thoughts were Tom, Joseph, Ben or Sam, possibly also Liam.

porcupine11 · 30/06/2009 12:53

my first thought was Toby

Botbot · 30/06/2009 12:54

Actually, with my Josh I wanted Jacob/Jake - but didn't want two J names and they are quite similar sounding.
So we have a Toby - hence my original post.
Not sure I actually like the name Toby as a fav, but Josh chose it and I only had a girls name anyway, and after a few days it stuck.
He wouldn't be anyone else now!

Chasingsquirrels - are you me?? (Look at my post of 10:04:44)

I used Jake as a middle name for DS2 in the end.

ChasingSquirrels · 30/06/2009 15:39

don't think I am - lol.

I used Alexander as a middle name - not because I especially liked it but because I wanted a vowel name, and ds1 is Andrew.
Isn't naming children a funny thing!

boodleboot · 30/06/2009 17:05

josh and toby

has to be.

Bathsheba · 30/06/2009 17:56

My first thought is Ethan

MaggieBeeBeau · 30/06/2009 17:57

Ethan, Jacob or Zack
