🌿 brother for Peregrine

[persephonescrown]

Have been chatting names with my other half today and we decided we need some fresh boy ideas! Not expecting yet, just exploring for the future.

Our tippity-top boy name is lovely Peregrine, he combines our two favourite vibes of classic British and ‘could be found in a fantasy novel’ so I’m looking for suggestions that would fit with him nicely in a sib set.

Other names we like but can’t use for various reasons ~
Ambrose
Rafferty
Tristan
Cosmo
Horatio
Sebastian
Orlando
Frederick
and we can’t do anything ending in -ic or -is sounds

We also love Caspian but like the same nickname for both him and Peregrine (Pip!) and out of the two we would choose Peregrine.

I love [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] and [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] together! How about exploring different possible NNs for [name_m]Caspian[/name_m]? I’ve always thought [name_m]Cap[/name_m] would be cute. Like short for [name_m]Captain[/name_m]. [name_u]Pip[/name_u] and [name_m]Cap[/name_m]!
I also think [name_m]Ambrose[/name_m] would be lovely with [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u]. Some other suggestions…

I think I mentioned before that I know brothers named [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] and [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] is Pippin/Pip, but [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] has no nickname. He’s the older brother, and his mom offered the idea of [name_m]Ian[/name_m] to family who thought “Caspian” was weird; but it didn’t stick. I like the suggestion of [name_m]Cap[/name_m].
Their middle brother is Zeph@n, and I see @seawillow has suggested [name_u]Zephaniah[/name_u]

[name_u]Love[/name_u] the suggestions of [name_m]Caedmon[/name_m], [name_u]Thaddeus[/name_u], [name_m]Zebedee[/name_m], Odysseus/Ulysses, among others! I see [name_m]Horatio[/name_m] on your no-fly list, and that’s the one my friend would probably have used for another boy (nn Rory.) They also considered [name_m]Ragnar[/name_m], [name_m]Barnaby[/name_m], [name_m]Tor[/name_m], [name_m]Quigley[/name_m], [name_u]Carbry[/name_u], among others.

@IndiaGo oh I should have put [name_m]Rufus[/name_m] on my ‘can’t use’ list - I utterly adore him but husband has a relative with the name also love [name_m]Rupert[/name_m], [name_u]Auberon[/name_u], [name_m]Stellan[/name_m] and [name_m]Tobias[/name_m]!

@somemelodioussonnet I really like [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] but it has been vetoed! [name_m]Kenneth[/name_m] is growing on me, it has a great meaning.

@tori101 love [name_u]Oberon[/name_u], and I’m quite into [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] and [name_m]Maximilian[/name_m] too!

@Shits_Giggles oh [name_u]Griffin[/name_u] is so lovely and cuddly, I also really like [name_u]Corin[/name_u] and [name_m]Crispin[/name_m]

@benton_s_mama I know aren’t they fab together! We think family would intuitively shorten it to [name_u]Cass[/name_u] which is a bit close to my husband’s name. I might have to stop caring about that because I love it so much haha. [name_m]Ambrose[/name_m] is another big favourite (esp nn Bram) but sadly a family member has used it. [name_u]Love[/name_u] all your suggestions, [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] was our first boy crush and he still has a special place in my heart!

@Greyblue fab list, I’m having a bit of a [name_m]Ferdinand[/name_m] phase at the moment! His meaning goes so well with [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] too. Wish I could get husband on board with [name_m]Sholto[/name_m]. Also loving [name_u]Florian[/name_u], Banquo, [name_u]Oberon[/name_u] and [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u]

@seawillow [name_m]Lysander[/name_m], [name_u]Atlas[/name_u], [name_u]Oleander[/name_u], [name_m]Percival[/name_m] are all fabulous and my particular favourite is [name_m]Valerian[/name_m]

@marysia [name_u]Leander[/name_u], [name_m]Lysander[/name_m], [name_m]Percival[/name_m], [name_u]Montgomery[/name_u], [name_m]Bartholomew[/name_m] thanks!

@auroradawn yes! That’s so interesting and I have so much respect for their excellent name taste, haha I just really am a nickname person and think it would be odd for me not to have one at all. I think it intuitively shortens to [name_u]Cass[/name_u] which I don’t dislike at all, it’s just a bit close to my husband’s name. [name_m]Horatio[/name_m] ‘Rory’ is perfect but it’s the beloved favourite boy name of a friend whose husband won’t let her use it, so I think it would be a bit harsh to ‘steal’ it from her

@Lauren.Ley wonderful list - I’m a big fan of [name_m]Faramond[/name_m] and [name_u]Valentine[/name_u] and really like [name_m]Edmund[/name_m], [name_m]Hawthorne[/name_m] and [name_m]Archibald[/name_m]

[persephonescrown]

@sammaegre [name_m]Stellan[/name_m], [name_m]Isidore[/name_m], [name_m]Hawthorne[/name_m] and [name_m]Lysander[/name_m] are wonderful!

@persephonescrown

I’m having a bit of a Ferdinand phase at the moment! His meaning goes so well with Peregrine too.

yes!! I’d forgotten what a great meaning it had

You could also try searching in the forums for a thread called something like “26 Days of Unique Boy Names” and may find ones that were created for each letter of the alphabet.

@autumnreverie

How does “Pip” derive from Peregrine?

The same way it derives from Peter - I think it honestly works for any P name! Also, see Tolkien’s Peregrin Took → Pippin

[UnderTheRainbow]

First things first: I LOVE the name [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u]. Plain and simple. I usually pair it up with the first name [name_u]Jack[/name_u] because it’s maybe a bit daring for me (though I’d go nuts if I met a little [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] in real life, honestly). Totally on board with the “could be found in a fantasy novel” description. Yeah, that’s [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u].

The list of names you can’t use is incredible, and it’s a shame because [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] & [name_m]Horatio[/name_m], or [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] & [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m], or [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] & [name_u]Tristan[/name_u] are just made for each other.

A name that, in a way, I always associate with [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] is [name_m]Alastair[/name_m] because it’s the other name I use as a middle name for my second favorite name (Henry). (So my two favorite combos are [name_u]Jack[/name_u] [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] and [name_u]Henry[/name_u] [name_m]Alastair[/name_m], making [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] and [name_m]Alastair[/name_m] like brothers to me.)

Here are some other names that might fit the bill for what you’re looking for.

• [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] & [name_m]Barnabas[/name_m]
• [name_u]Peregrine[/name_u] & [name_m]Benedict[/name_m]
