Boys name to go with sisters violet and cordelia

i’m looking for a boys name for little bro to big sisters [name]Violet[/name] ([name]Vi[/name]/ [name]Via[/name] nm) and [name]Cordelia[/name] ([name]Cordy[/name]/ [name]Delia[/name] nm). names on my list so far are:
[name]Lucas[/name]
[name]Micah[/name]
[name]Callum[/name]
Malcomb
but im not really sold on any of those names, maybe [name]Callum[/name] :slight_smile: idk… any suggestions are super appreciated. ive found its so much easier to name girls than boys, lol :slight_smile: anyway, our last name starts with an R and is one syllable so i would like a name with at least 2 syllables, and of course does’nt start with a R. :slight_smile:

Like [name]Lucas[/name], but I love [name]Luca[/name].
[name]Callum[/name] is a nice choice, and fits well. Not sold on the spelling “Malcomb” (i would consider “[name]Malcolm[/name]”) and I’ve known too many girl Micahs to see it as a male name.

[name]Malachy[/name]!

Since [name]Callum[/name] is Gaelic I thought you might like an Irish suggestion, like your lovely girls’ names it is a name you would expect to find among great grandparents and hits the length you are looking for.

What about [name]Lucian[/name]? I know a sibset with [name]Cordelia[/name]. It’s similar to [name]Lucas[/name] also…

[name]Violet[/name], [name]Cordelia[/name] and:
[name]Lucius[/name] (prefer it to [name]Lucas[/name], love [name]Lucius[/name])
[name]Micah[/name] (solid choice)
[name]Callum[/name] (very awesome choice!)
[name]Malcolm[/name] (would work, not my fav though)

Some other names that I think would work great with [name]Violet[/name] and [name]Cordelia[/name]:
[name]Amias[/name] (!)
[name]Amari[/name]
[name]Eamon[/name]
[name]Soren[/name]
[name]Jasper[/name]
[name]Emrys[/name]
[name]Ellis[/name]
[name]Zander[/name]
[name]Emil[/name]/[name]Emile[/name]
[name]Kieran[/name]
[name]Julian[/name]
[name]Alton[/name]
[name]Dashiell[/name]
[name]Saul[/name]
[name]Emmett[/name]

I immediately thought: [name]Graham[/name]. (I know, it’s one syllable, but still want to throw it in there…unless you say it like [name]Graeme[/name], and that’s nice too)

Other thoughts:
[name]Sebastian[/name]
[name]Basil[/name]
[name]August[/name]
[name]Casper[/name]
[name]Benedict[/name]
[name]Simon[/name]
[name]Byron[/name]
[name]Linus[/name]
[name]Theodore[/name]

I like [name]Callum[/name] a lot and it works with the sibset, although I’m odd and having two out of three children with a C name would bother me. I also quite like Malcomb, although I too prefer [name]Malcolm[/name]. I think it’s very handsome and again fits the sibset well.

[name]Violet[/name] and [name]Cordelia[/name] are lovely!

I think something equally literary-ish would pair really well. My first idea was [name]Sebastian[/name], but I don’t know if the [name]Violet[/name]/[name]Sebastian[/name] thing is too close to [name]Viola[/name] and [name]Sebastian[/name] (who were twins in Twelfth [name]Night[/name]). I still like it, though. :slight_smile:

From your options, I like [name]Micah[/name] the best. I think [name]Violet[/name], [name]Cordelia[/name], and [name]Micah[/name] are lovely together.

Other ideas:

[name]Percival[/name]/[name]Percy[/name]
[name]Rory[/name]
[name]Henry[/name]
[name]Julian[/name]
[name]Leopold[/name]
[name]Rhys[/name]
[name]Nathaniel[/name]

Not all exactly literary, but they have a literary “feel” to me, if that makes sense…

OMG [name]Asha[/name]- funny. I saw [name]Violet[/name] and [name]Cordelia[/name] and also immediately thought [name]Percival[/name]!

[name]Violet[/name] and [name]Cordelia[/name] are both so fragrant and romantic. My instinct is to go for something like [name]Robin[/name], [name]Isidore[/name], [name]Arthur[/name]…
[name]August[/name], [name]Hadrian[/name], [name]Tybalt[/name], [name]Tristan[/name], [name]Orlando[/name], [name]Beau[/name]…
None from your list make sense to me with your girls’ names. Though [name]Lucas[/name] could work if it were [name]Lucius[/name], or [name]Lucien[/name].
If you like [name]Callum[/name] and [name]Malcolm[/name], any interest in [name]Colm[/name] or [name]Colin[/name]?

Someone suggested [name]Malachy[/name]/[name]Malachi[/name]–great idea. I think [name]Malachi[/name] would be awesome for a brother to [name]Violet[/name] and [name]Cordelia[/name], if you are considering the name.

Good luck!
