[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_m]Monty[/name_m]! That struck me as maybe working well for both of you. [name_f]Do[/name_f] like [name_u]Miles[/name_u] (or Milo) too
Sorry for repeats but these came to mind…
[name_m]Stellan[/name_m]
[name_m]Otto[/name_m]
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u]
[name_m]Fred[/name_m] / [name_u]Freddie[/name_u]
[name_m]Ralph[/name_m] / [name_u]Rafe[/name_u]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] / [name_u]Eli[/name_u]
[name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] / [name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_m]Silas[/name_m]
[name_m]Frank[/name_m]
[name_u]Kit[/name_u]
[name_u]Percy[/name_u]
[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] / [name_m]Seb[/name_m]
[name_u]Seth[/name_u]
[name_u]Finn[/name_u]
[name_u]Miles[/name_u] is a great name! I really like [name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_u]Miles[/name_u] together!
Maybe a traditional name with a quirky nickname? Like [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] nn [name_m]Fritz[/name_m], or [name_m]Nicholas[/name_m] nn [name_u]Nico[/name_u], or [name_u]Henry[/name_u] nn [name_m]Huck[/name_m]
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] / [name_m]Casper[/name_m]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Bruno[/name_m]
[name_m]Hugo[/name_m]
[name_m]Christopher[/name_m] nn [name_u]Kit[/name_u]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u]
[name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] /Laurence nn Laurie/Lawrie
[name_m]Benedict[/name_m] nn [name_u]Bennie[/name_u]
[name_m]Anthony[/name_m] nn [name_u]Tony[/name_u]
[name_m]Victor[/name_m]
[name_u]Milo[/name_u]
Neil/Neal
[name_m]Nigel[/name_m]
[name_u]August[/name_u] nn [name_m]Auggie[/name_m]
[name_f]My[/name_f] first thoughts were [name_m]Otto[/name_m], [name_m]Otis[/name_m], [name_u]Amos[/name_u], [name_m]Eben[/name_m], [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] or [name_m]Reuben[/name_m]. All very old fashioned but sound contemporary. Also maybe Scandi names such as [name_m]Erik[/name_m] or [name_m]Ivar[/name_m]? Some biblical names such as [name_m]Caleb[/name_m], [name_u]Judah[/name_u] / [name_u]Jude[/name_u] or [name_m]Jorah[/name_m] would go very well also. I also love [name_u]Jory[/name_u] as a contemporary alternative to [name_u]Rory[/name_u]. It’s old but doesn’t sound it. [name_m]Jago[/name_m] would go wonderfully too, again it’s old (Cornish Jack) but doesn’t sound it. I think [name_f]Clara[/name_f] is a very versatile name for pairing, it’s vintage but not at all unwieldy and can blend effortlessly with many styles without jarring. Excellent choice
I really like some of the names you’ve listed, especially Jude, which is my son’s name. I think it goes beautifully with Clara, as does Miles, Rory, Will/iam and Monty. Here are some names that might bridge the gap:
Oscar
Lucian
Sullivan
Kai
Milo
Felix
Otis
Louis
Maximus
Gus
Orlando
Phineas
Quinn
Rex
Soren
Otto
Remy
Axel
Bastian
Atticus
Caspar
Miro
Frankie
Hugo
Dashiell
Magnus
Orson
Caspian
Atlas
Fifer
Cyrus
August
Chet
Elio
Winston
Finn
Angus
Rafferty
Kit
Jasper
Fred
Stellan
Jem
Wilfred
River
Ezra
Sebastian
Arlo
Ignatius
Fox
Marlowe
Levi
Forest
What about [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] [name_u]Montgomery[/name_u]? Then you have your [name_u]Charlie[/name_u], and his nickname could be [name_m]Monty[/name_m]. Plus, [name_f]Clara[/name_f] & [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] go together beautifully.
[name_f]My[/name_f] first thought for a compromise would be Oskar/ [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] . Your partner could have [name_m]Oz[/name_m] and you would have that woods / traditional name ! I actually love [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] and [name_f]Clara[/name_f] ! They feel perfect together
Other names that I think [name_f]May[/name_f] combine your styles
Thanks, all! You merged our styles really well! I love so many of your suggestions, especially [name_u]Theo[/name_u], [name_m]Silas[/name_m], [name_u]Asher[/name_u], [name_u]Freddie[/name_u], [name_u]Elliot[/name_u], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] “Oz”, [name_m]Caleb[/name_m], [name_u]Milo[/name_u], and [name_m]Calvin[/name_m] “Cal”. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband liked [name_m]Ned[/name_m], [name_u]Ray[/name_u], [name_m]Hal[/name_m], and [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] “Freddie”. Tried to talk him into [name_u]Henry[/name_u] “Hal” but no dice.
[name_m]Frederick[/name_m] “Freddie” or [name_u]Miles[/name_u] appear to be our frontrunners. [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] feels a little stuffy to me, but maybe it’ll grow on me. Freddie/Fred alone feels incomplete.
It was suggested already, but I could see [name_f]Clara[/name_f] and [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m] nn [name_u]Rafe[/name_u].
I also like [name_f]Clara[/name_f] and:
[name_u]Walter[/name_u] nn [name_m]Walt[/name_m] or [name_u]Wally[/name_u]
[name_m]Roger[/name_m]
[name_m]Peter[/name_m]
[name_m]Simon[/name_m]
[name_u]Edward[/name_u] nn [name_u]Eddie[/name_u]
[name_u]Ellis[/name_u]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m] nn [name_u]Cal[/name_u] comes to mind
What about [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] and [name_m]Oz[/name_m] could be a nickname? [name_u]Moses[/name_u] nn [name_u]Mo[/name_u] could potentially bridge the gap too.
What about: [name_u]Ira[/name_u], [name_u]Eli[/name_u], Bo/Beau?
