I am struggling to find a boys name that is the "one". I like unique names but also names that will grow with them, quite a difficult combo. I like the sound of Brakkai and Indio but would like to test them out before I actually name the baby. Any comments welcome.

I know a family who liked thier first childs name so much that they anagrammed it for DC2 so now they have a Caden and a Decan.

Caden is pronounced Kay-den.

was in Asdas earlier and there was a little boy in a shopping trolley and the father saoid...blablabla...Caspar....now I know it is a pefectly acceptable name and possibly a lovely name, but...to me...it is the germam version of Punch (as in Punch and Judy)....i.e. punch always is called Kasperle, niname version of Kaspar/Caspar....

but it is an unusual name still, I think...
