Brother to Maximus Ferdinand

So baby boy #2 is due in late [name]October[/name] and we’ve been bouncing around names but nothing is sticking. My first son is named [name]Maximus[/name] [name]Ferdinand[/name]. I loved the name [name]Max[/name] and wanted something longer for a first name and we chose [name]Maximus[/name] as it has a strong feel, means “the greatest” and, imho, is pretty badass. [name]Ferdinand[/name] is a family name from my husband’s very danish side.

Any suggestions for an equally great and badass first and middle name to go with [name]Maximus[/name] [name]Ferdinand[/name]?

[name]Augustus[/name] [name]Balthasar[/name] - nn [name]Gus[/name]

That’s so funny…DH keeps suggesting [name]Augustus[/name] :slight_smile:

This is wonderful! [name]Max[/name] and [name]Gus[/name] are great brother names.

Yes I agree! [name]Max[/name] and [name]Gus[/name] is just perfect. I would’ve said [name]Hector[/name] but [name]Agustus[/name] follows the ‘s’ ending name theme. My boys are the same, [name]Silas[/name] and [name]Charles[/name] :slight_smile: goodluck in your pregnancy.

[name]Alexios[/name], [name]Tibalt[/name], [name]Casmir[/name], [name]Alfonso[/name], [name]Hadrian[/name]

I am in awe of you using [name]Ferdinand[/name]. Being notably bad at suggestions, I unhelpfully have none, but I couldn’t resist penning a quick note to express my love for that name. Sorry to be useless - good luck!

I love the suggestion of [name]Balthazar[/name]. Some more equally unusual ideas:

[name]Alasdair[/name]
[name]Aloysius[/name]
[name]Ambrose[/name]
[name]Apollo[/name]
[name]Atlas[/name]
[name]Aurelius[/name]
[name]Barnabas[/name]/[name]Barnaby[/name]
[name]Bartholomew[/name]
[name]Benedict[/name]
[name]Caedmon[/name]
[name]Casimir[/name]
[name]Caspian[/name]
[name]Clement[/name]

[name]Peregrine[/name]
[name]Philemon[/name]
[name]Phineas[/name]
[name]Rupert[/name]
[name]Ulysses[/name]
[name]Valentine[/name]

[name]Theodore[/name] also came to mind.

I know brothers called [name]Maximus[/name], [name]Zacharias[/name] and [name]Cornelius[/name], which I think is a very cool sib-set!

First names: [name]Cassius[/name], [name]Lucius[/name]/[name]Lucian[/name], [name]Atticus[/name], [name]Antonius[/name], [name]Cyrus[/name], [name]Gaius[/name], [name]Felix[/name], [name]Julian[/name], [name]Leander[/name], [name]Evander[/name], [name]Jedidiah[/name] , [name]Mathias[/name], [name]Demetrius[/name], [name]Alaric[/name]
