Sibling for Konrad and Louisa

Woohoo we’re expecting baby #3! My kiddos are [name_m]Konrad[/name_m] [name_m]Wolfgang[/name_m] and [name_f]Louisa[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f] (middles are family names). We have pretty good girl options but are struggling with boy names.

My husband loved [name_m]German[/name_m], “badass-sounding” names (his name is [name_m]Klaus[/name_m]). Any ideas on a badass brother name for [name_m]Konrad[/name_m] and [name_f]Louisa[/name_f]? Bonus points if it is [name_m]German[/name_m], starts with a K and/or has a K in the name!

To give you an idea, our top contenders right now are [name_m]Oskar[/name_m] (but I don’t like how popular it is at #206), [name_m]Otto[/name_m], or [name_m]Hugo[/name_m].

Thank you!

I’ve always loved your naming style, and [name_m]Oskar[/name_m], [name_m]Otto[/name_m] and [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] are all lovely options. I have to admit I’m not the most original with naming suggestions but I do like the following with [name_m]Konrad[/name_m] and [name_f]Louisa[/name_f]:

[name_m]Kiefer[/name_m]
[name_m]Aurik[/name_m]
[name_m]Alaric[/name_m]/k
[name_m]Anselm[/name_m]
[name_m]Frederick[/name_m]/[name_m]Fredrik[/name_m]
[name_m]Lukas[/name_m]

I seem to be drawn to A beginning [name_m]German[/name_m] names, rather than K.

I also like [name_m]Kellan[/name_m]/[name_m]Kellen[/name_m] but I’m not as keen on the meaning.

Other possibilities with [name_m]Konrad[/name_m] and [name_f]Louisa[/name_f]:

[name_u]Auden[/name_u]
[name_m]Leopold[/name_m]
[name_m]Gregor/name_m
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m]

Not [name_m]German[/name_m] but I instantly thought of [name_m]Cormac[/name_m] with [name_m]Konrad[/name_m].
Could spell Kormac, [name_m]Cormack[/name_m], …

[name_m]Gunther[/name_m] [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]

Your kids names are fantastic!

I love [name_m]Otto[/name_m] and [name_m]Oskar[/name_m] from your choices

I’ll also suggest:

[name_m]Konrad[/name_m], [name_f]Louisa[/name_f] and…

[name_m]Kurtis[/name_m]/[name_m]Kurt[/name_m]
[name_m]Kaspar[/name_m]
[name_m]Milo[/name_m]/[name_m]Miles[/name_m]
[name_m]Isaak[/name_m]
[name_m]Abraham[/name_m]
[name_u]Florian[/name_u]
[name_m]Bruno[/name_m]
[name_m]Erik[/name_m]
[name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m]
[name_m]Leon[/name_m]
[name_m]Klemens[/name_m]
[name_m]Rupert[/name_m]
[name_m]Matthias[/name_m]

Before I got to your final paragraph I thought of both [name_m]Otto[/name_m] and [name_m]Oskar[/name_m]! I love both of these names as well as [name_m]Hugo[/name_m]; great options!

[name_u]Karsten[/name_u]! I know of one, and it works very well for him. [name_m]Kasimir[/name_m] is also a fun option.

Kassian,
[name_m]Edison[/name_m]/[name_m]Edmund[/name_m], Fredrich [name_m]Augustus[/name_m], [name_m]Hendrick[/name_m]

[name_m]Otto[/name_m] is so cute and unexpected, I really have a soft spot for him! And [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] is very much a sweet choice too, although perhaps a bit more common. [name_m]How[/name_m] about:

[name_m]Jonas[/name_m]
[name_m]Leopold[/name_m]
[name_m]Emil[/name_m]
[name_m]Bertram[/name_m]
[name_m]Markus[/name_m]

[name_m]Johann[/name_m]
[name_m]Leonard[/name_m]
[name_m]Rollo[/name_m]
[name_m]Wilbur[/name_m]
[name_m]Henrik[/name_m] (not strictly [name_m]German[/name_m] but a Germanic variation?)
[name_m]Timo[/name_m] (I once met a little [name_m]Timo[/name_m] and it works really well!)
[name_u]August[/name_u]

It doesn’t have a K and its not [name_m]German[/name_m] but I think [name_m]Edgar[/name_m] would be a great badass brother name :slight_smile:

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

Ha, my husband likes ‘badass’ names too. I love [name_m]Oskar[/name_m]. [name_m]Otto[/name_m] is kind of cool, but I don’t know…[name_m]Hugo[/name_m] is darling, but not at all badass. Sounds kind of sweet and nerdy to me!

Other suggestions:

[name_m]Axel[/name_m]

[name_m]Bastian[/name_m] nn Bash

[name_m]Crispin[/name_m]

Thax…maybe as a nn for [name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m] or [name_m]Thackeray[/name_m] or [name_m]Thatcher[/name_m]

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps. :slight_smile:

[name_m]Jonas[/name_m] while not starting with a “K” has those badass vibes. I love it so much!

I love the [name_m]German[/name_m] name [name_m]Dieter[/name_m]. I think it’s badass.

My first thought was [name_m]Albert[/name_m]

I really like [name_m]Oskar[/name_m] for you! And I’d like to echo the previous suggestion of [name_m]Victor[/name_m]/[name_m]Viktor[/name_m]; I have a [name_m]Conrad[/name_m] [name_m]Victor[/name_m] ([name_m]Victor[/name_m] is an honor name) and I regret a bit not saving [name_m]Victor[/name_m] to use as a first name on another son.

Suggestions:

[name_m]Wolfgang[/name_m]
[name_m]Kellan[/name_m]
[name_m]Rocco[/name_m]
[name_m]Ryker[/name_m]
[name_m]Kurtis[/name_m]

I do really like [name_m]Oskar[/name_m], [name_m]Otto[/name_m] & [name_m]Hugo[/name_m]!

You guys thank you!! These are all so amazing!definitely running some by my husband. Thanks again! :slight_smile:

My speciality! With [name_m]German[/name_m] names, you have to be careful careful not to slip into old man territory. Basically, all stereotypically [name_m]German[/name_m] names like [name_m]Dieter[/name_m], Günther or [name_m]Heinrich[/name_m] are terribly outdated and almost no [name_m]German[/name_m] parents today would ever dream of giving their child such a name.

I think [name_m]Karl[/name_m], [name_m]Kurt[/name_m] or [name_m]Kaspar[/name_m] would fit the bill, [name_u]Konstantin[/name_u] would be perfect!
[name_u]Karsten[/name_u] or [name_m]Carsten[/name_m] is common in Germany. [name_m]Anton[/name_m] also sounds very tough.
If you settle on a name beginning with K, maybe one that contains K? [name_u]Dominik[/name_u], Niklas, [name_m]Jakob[/name_m] and [name_m]Lukas[/name_m] all have that harsh K sound you seem to love.

Other suggestion:
[name_m]Moritz[/name_m]
[name_m]Matthias[/name_m]
[name_m]Christoph[/name_m]
[name_m]Clemens[/name_m]
[name_m]Gerhard[/name_m]
[name_m]Johannes[/name_m]/[name_m]Johann[/name_m]
[name_m]Leopold[/name_m]
[name_m]Andreas[/name_m]
[name_m]Werner[/name_m]
[name_m]Fabian[/name_m]
[name_m]Lorenz[/name_m]
Holger
[name_m]Rainer[/name_m]
[name_m]Thorsten[/name_m]
[name_m]Lennart[/name_m]
[name_m]Friedrich[/name_m]

And if you have another girl someday, [name_f]Kiara[/name_f]!

Also, I saw [name_m]Kiefer[/name_m] was suggested in a reply- [name_m]Kiefer[/name_m] isn’t a [name_m]German[/name_m] name. It’s a word for jaw and a type of tree, but I can guarantee you that not a single person in Germany is actually named [name_m]Kiefer[/name_m].
