Looking for name suggestions for a brother for [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] [name_m]Paul[/name_m]. We would like a name that is less common than [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] has become. Middle name will be after family and will most likely be [name_m]Craig[/name_m].
Some names we’ve liked but aren’t the “one” include:
[name_u]Everest[/name_u] (still a maybe)
[name_f]Cypress[/name_f]
[name_u]Zion[/name_u] (too common)
[name_m]Truett[/name_m] (husband said no)
[name_m]Kaius[/name_m]
I like [name_u]Everest[/name_u] of these but with [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] perhaps too much of a traveller/geographical theme or is that the plan? [name_m]Kaius[/name_m] could be cool!
Ariston (I’m a bit surprised this name isn’t on Nameberry as it has quite a bit of history)
[name_m]Cadmus[/name_m]
[name_m]Casimir[/name_m]
[name_m]Evander[/name_m]
[name_m]Everard[/name_m]
[name_m]Halsten[/name_m]
[name_m]Kiefer[/name_m]
[name_m]Leander[/name_m]
[name_m]Ovid[/name_m]
[name_u]Zephyr[/name_u]
It’s difficult to tell which names are going to suddenly jump in popularity. Of the list above [name_m]Evander[/name_m] might have that happen. and possibly [name_u]Zephyr[/name_u] or [name_m]Leander[/name_m] will make it onto the chart, but I doubt they’ll go near as high as [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] has. The rest seem pretty solidly out of general use.
I also prefer [name_u]Everest[/name_u] with [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] if you don’t mind the mountain association.
Here are some other suggestions:
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_m]Arvid[/name_m]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_m]Magnus[/name_m]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_m]Ellard[/name_m]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_m]Foster[/name_m]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_m]Emrys[/name_m]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_m]Remus[/name_m]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_m]Apollo[/name_m]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_u]Cedar[/name_u]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_u]Cobalt[/name_u]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_u]Calder[/name_u]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_m]Moss[/name_m]
[name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_m]Quill[/name_m]
We are not really “travelers” in that way - I mean we enjoy vacations but we’re not the type of people to go hike a mountain. We’re more likely to go to the beach or someplace like Disney World. We also have a daughter and her name is not at all outdoorsy/travel-ish
That’s one of the things holding me back from [name_u]Everest[/name_u].
I do like [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] - I’m not sure if it sounds good with our last name though. Thanks for the suggestions!
Thanks everyone for all the suggestions! I did see a few I liked
[name_u]Oberon[/name_u] - like this but it rhymes with our LN
[name_m]Evander[/name_m] - I do like this one!
[name_u]Ellis[/name_u] - I love this one but worry it’ll become too common
[name_u]Merritt[/name_u] - I like this one too
I know so many sibsets with [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_u]Everest[/name_u] that I can’t pair them anymore, even if I love both names individually. I like [name_f]Cypress[/name_f], [name_u]Zion[/name_u] and [name_m]Kaius[/name_m]!
