Brother for Clara

I am looking for a sibling set with [name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]. Our last name sounds like “Cold.” The middle name would most likely be [name_m]Brian[/name_m] in honor of my father.

Some ideas:

[name_m]Louis[/name_m]: In US, so most likely pronounced “[name_u]Lou[/name_u]-ISS” but with “[name_u]Lou[/name_u]-EE” as a nickname. This is a family name.

[name_m]Henry[/name_m]: This name feels too popular.

[name_m]William[/name_m]: Too popular compared to [name_f]Clara[/name_f]. Would always be shortened?

[name_m]David[/name_m]: [name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_m]David[/name_m], but not “[name_m]Davey[/name_m]”

[name_m]George[/name_m]: Too short with one-syllable last name?

[name_m]Roger[/name_m]: I like this name, but can’t decide if it fits with [name_f]Clara[/name_f].

Thanks in advance! Open to other suggestions.

I think all names go very well with [name_f]Clara[/name_f]! With [name_m]Brian[/name_m] as a middle name, my favorites are [name_m]William[/name_m], [name_m]David[/name_m] and [name_m]George[/name_m]. You have a great list, all names are very elegant and handsome. You definetely can’t go wrong.

[name_f]Clara[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] & [name_m]Louis[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m] is my favorite

Perhaps [name_m]Davis[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m] or [name_m]Harvey[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m]

Thanks! I like [name_m]Harvey[/name_m]! Something to consider. :slight_smile:

I like [name_m]David[/name_m], there are 3 in my family… All for different reasons and on different branches but not one was ever [name_m]Davey[/name_m]. 2 are [name_m]Dave[/name_m] sometimes … But weren’t as kids. I prefer it on your list I think it works best.

I think [name_m]Roger[/name_m] and [name_f]Clara[/name_f] match nicely!
Instead of [name_m]William[/name_m] have you considered [name_m]Willem[/name_m]? 2 syllable names are less likely to be shortened.

Those are all lovely options. Here are some other names that are less heard and have a similar vintage feel as [name_f]Clara[/name_f] has: [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Wilfred[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Anthony[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] [name_m]Brian[/name_m], [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m] and [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Brian[/name_m].
