Need help...but have a good idea!

[name_m]Son[/name_m] #1 [name_m]Cooper[/name_m] is 15 months…second baby on the way. Woohoo!

Need a boys name that has a cute/cool nickname but also works for an adult in its long form. [name_m]Cooper[/name_m] fit this bill perfectly but what do we do for baby boy #2? [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t want the name to end in an ‘er’ as that is too close to [name_m]Cooper[/name_m] is the only other criteria. Any ideas? Thank you!

[name_m]Augustine[/name_m] (or just [name_u]August[/name_u])- my favorite and the nicknames [name_u]August[/name_u] and [name_u]Gus[/name_u] age well
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m]- I love the nickname [name_u]Theo[/name_u]
[name_m]Lincoln[/name_m]- [name_m]Link[/name_m] sounds so cool maybe because of the video game connection…
[name_m]Benedict[/name_m]- although I am not a big fan of [name_m]Ben[/name_m] it does age well
