Brother for Otto: Struggling for options at 40 weeks

Ooh, I really like the suggestion of [name_m]Leon[/name_m]. Short, simple, not uncommon but not overused.

I can’t use [name_m]Leon[/name_m] because it rhymes with my last name, so I do like to suggest it to others.

I was thinking about this some more, and I like the idea of another vowel name for your 2nd son. Has anyone suggested [name_m]Anton[/name_m]?

I think [name_m]Matteo[/name_m] would be very handsome with [name_m]Otto[/name_m].
Another name that came to mind is [name_m]Joaquin[/name_m].

Frederick (nn [name_m]Fritz[/name_m]). I also like [name_u]Max[/name_u] or [name_m]Karl[/name_m] for a [name_m]German[/name_m] Australian family.

Sorry for the repeats but this came to mind:

Jasper/Casper
[name_m]Bram[/name_m]
[name_m]Ralph[/name_m]
[name_u]Jules[/name_u]
[name_m]Emil[/name_m]
[name_m]Jonas[/name_m]

I love [name_m]Enzo[/name_m] from your list so adorable and has the same kind of vibe as [name_m]Otto[/name_m]

There’s this children’s book I absolutely love called [name_m]Gideon[/name_m] & [name_m]Otto[/name_m] so I also really love this pair.

From other posters suggestions I really love [name_m]Rueben[/name_m] & [name_u]Rudy[/name_u] also [name_u]Basil[/name_u] is very nice.

I’ll also suggest [name_m]Orson[/name_m] if another O name is on the table for you.

Ok, baby boy is here! We had a fab home birth but also a scary hospital transfer and week-long stay in Special Care after he struggled to breathe.

After that hectic time, we’re struggling to settle on a name, but I’d like to do it soon as I think it will help us bond.

With big brother [name_m]Otto[/name_m] [name_m]Raymond[/name_m], do we go for:

Monty [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]

Louis [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] (‘[name_u]Louie[/name_u]’ not ‘[name_m]Lewis[/name_m]’)

Enzo ??

Ziggy [name_m]Walter[/name_m]

Oscar [name_u]Sydney[/name_u]

Middle names are all family names but interchangeable too :).

I love [name_m]Monty[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] and [name_u]Ziggy[/name_u] [name_m]Walter[/name_m]. I think they are splendid combos, and they go so wonderfully with [name_m]Otto[/name_m] [name_m]Raymond[/name_m]. :blush:

Of these, I like [name_m]Louis[/name_m] [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] the best! [name_f]My[/name_f] first thought for a brother for [name_m]Otto[/name_m] though is actually [name_m]Julius[/name_m]. I think [name_m]Otto[/name_m] [name_m]Raymond[/name_m] and [name_m]Julius[/name_m] [name_m]Walter[/name_m] would make great brothers! I also think Rolf is a cool name that could work well with Otto. Maybe Otto Raymond and Rolf Sydney or Rolf Alexander?
