A Brother for Luna

Boy Names
1

I haven’t really been on Nameberry since having our first baby [name_f]Luna[/name_f] but now we’re expecting her little brother and I’m really stuck on names!

If he had been a girl, we’d chosen [name_u]Indigo[/name_u], which I know is unisex but I can’t picture it on a boy.

I like nature / spacey / unusual names and so far my list consists of:
[name_m]Fox[/name_m]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m]
[name_u]Poet[/name_u]

(All of which are likely to be vetoed because my other half rarely likes any name I come up with)

But nothing is really captivating me and I have to avoid any name ending in -er because of his last name.

Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

[name_u]Flynn[/name_u]
[name_u]Roan[/name_u]

[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] would be perfect for [name_f]Luna[/name_f]'s brother! [name_m]Apollo[/name_m], [name_m]Caspian[/name_m], [name_u]Orion[/name_u], [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u], and [name_u]Oberon[/name_u] are also great ideas.

I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] your naming style. So great.
I second [name_u]Orion[/name_u]. [name_f]Luna[/name_f] and [name_u]Orion[/name_u] - lovely!

[name_f]Starling[/name_f] - “star”, and it’s a bird!
[name_m]Sirius[/name_m] - a star, and [name_f]Luna[/name_f] and [name_m]Sirius[/name_m] are both [name_m]Harry[/name_m] [name_m]Potter[/name_m] characters- whether that’s good or bad is up to you!
[name_u]Cloud[/name_u]
[name_m]Castor[/name_m]
[name_m]Aries[/name_m]
[name_u]Zephyr[/name_u]
[name_m]Wolf[/name_m]
[name_u]Rain[/name_u]
[name_m]Leo[/name_m] - [name_f]Luna[/name_f] and [name_m]Leo[/name_m] are super cute together
[name_u]River[/name_u] would be great if not for the -er, so how about [name_u]Brook[/name_u] or [name_m]Brooks[/name_m]?
Best of luck, and do tell us what you decide on! :smiley:

Thanks everyone! Lots of names to think about but there’s still nothing that jumps out at me as being the perfect name. This is much harder than last time!
