We would really like to honor some family members when naming our son! We would like to use some variation of [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] and/or [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] without actually using those names. We’re not really coming up with anything on our own. Suggestions?
Brain freeze on [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] alternatives. However what about [name_m]Yusef[/name_m] or [name_m]Jose[/name_m].
Maybe a “[name_u]Nic[/name_u]” name for [name_m]Dominic[/name_m], like [name_m]Nicolas[/name_m], [name_u]Nico[/name_u], [name_m]Nikostratos[/name_m]/Nicostratus?
For [name_m]Joseph[/name_m], maybe a name that starts with “[name_u]Jo[/name_u]”, like [name_m]Jovan[/name_m], [name_m]Josiah[/name_m], [name_m]Job[/name_m]/Jobe?

Ideas that haven’t been suggested yet…
For [name_m]Dominic[/name_m]: [name_u]Nick[/name_u], [name_m]Damien[/name_m], [name_u]Dominique[/name_u]
For [name_m]Joseph[/name_m]: [name_u]Joey[/name_u], [name_m]Joshua[/name_m], [name_m]Jonas[/name_m], [name_u]Josie[/name_u]
For more [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] variations, maybe you could use a [name_m]Nicholas[/name_m] one? Since they both have the nickname [name_u]Nick[/name_u].
[name_u]Nico[/name_u]
[name_m]Cole[/name_m]
[name_m]Colin[/name_m]
[name_m]Nikolai[/name_m]
[name_m]Klaus[/name_m]
And for [name_m]Joseph[/name_m], any [name_u]Jo[/name_u]- or Se- names could work or ones with similar meanings too.
[name_u]Jonah[/name_u]
[name_m]Joel[/name_m]
[name_u]Seth[/name_u]
[name_m]Abram[/name_m]/Abraham
Joseph and [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] are really handsome names too, so if it wouldn’t bother you I would just like to suggest both of those names as is

Adding [name_u]Jay[/name_u] for [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] and seconding [name_u]Nick[/name_u] for [name_m]Dominic[/name_m]
I think [name_m]Joe[/name_m], on it’s own, definitely works!
