Boy's name needed

General Name Discussion
1

Very unexpectedly, a new baby boy will be coming to live with us, and although we won’t be able to name him ourselves straight away, we hope he will be with us forever and we can name him one day in the future.

We don’t know what his official name will be, but we are hoping to find a nickname for him, which we will use most of the time, based on his forever name.

We hope his forever name will refer to hiw lucky we are to have him (gift, surprise, etc.) Uncommon but not unusual. With a nickname that could stay with him even if he doesn’t stay with us so not obviously related to a long name - we thought [name_u]Sonny[/name_u] for example.

Can anyone help?
