Brother for Paxton

We are welcoming baby boy number two in February 2025. Our first son who was born in August 2023 is Paxton Lane. 95% of the time we call him ‘Pax’. Looking for a boy name that goes well with Paxton / Pax.

Some current running name combos that we like but not married to:
Paxton & Bodie (Pax & Bods)
Paxton & Beckett (Pax & Bex)
Paxton & Rylan (Pax & Ry)

I love [name_m]Beckett[/name_m], but [name_m]Pax[/name_m] & [name_f]Bex[/name_f] sound a bit too matchy for me – I’d really like the idea of [name_m]Pax[/name_m] & [name_m]Beck[/name_m] though! From your two other sets, I like [name_m]Paxton[/name_m] & [name_m]Rylan[/name_m] the best.

Hugest congratulations :tada:

From your list I love [name_m]Beckett[/name_m]! He’s a handsome, fashionable choice with an outdoorsy carefree sound. I like the meaning ‘bee cottage’ and the potential idea of having bee inspired clothing or bee themed nursery. I think Paxt0n sounds great with [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] especially with the strong similar sounds. However I think P@x and [name_f]Bex[/name_f] is a little too close I would say maybe [name_m]Beck[/name_m] would be a better nickname.

You’ve had lots of lovely suggestions so count any repeats as me being in agreement with the berries

Paxt0n Lan3 and…

[name_m]Paxton[/name_m] and [name_m]Bodie[/name_m] is my favorite, but at the same time, I really like the idea of [name_m]Pax[/name_m] & [name_m]Ry[/name_m]. I don’t know if you have a middle name in mind, but [name_m]Rylan[/name_m] [name_m]Beckett[/name_m] would be cool.
