[name_m]Hi[/name_m]- my husband and I are TTC #2. Our first is a boy named [name_m]Mario[/name_m] [name_m]Tomas[/name_m] (both family names). I love [name_m]Mario[/name_m] on him - it’s energetic and strong just like him :). Now though, I’m thinking I’d like to find a name for his potential little brother, but I actually don’t tend to favor Italian or Spanish names, usually because they tend to be long (of course there are exceptions). i do like [name_m]Leo[/name_m] (i gravitate toward 1and 2 syllable names) but I’m not sure if I want to lock myself into the o-ending as a pattern. Does anyone have any ideas for names that complement [name_m]Mario[/name_m] but that aren’t necessarily Ending in O? Thanks much!
I like [name_m]Giovanni[/name_m] -gio/geo could be a cute nickname.
[name_m]Demetrius[/name_m] is another Latin favorite of mine, [name_m]Dimitri[/name_m] for a nn or fn.
I also love [name_m]Leo[/name_m]. [name_m]Giovanni[/name_m] Leo__Dimitri Leo__Demetrius [name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_m]Roman[/name_m] with an accent over the A
[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] with accent over the A-really like this name pronounced in Spanish. [name_m]Ian[/name_m] is a nn option.
[name_m]Esteban[/name_m]
[name_m]Santos[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezequiel[/name_m]*favorite
[name_m]Rafael[/name_m]*favorite
What about [name_u]Luca[/name_u]? Has the same Spanish/Italian flair, is short, and doesn’t end in an o!
I will second [name_m]Roman[/name_m] with [name_m]Mario[/name_m]!
[name_m]Fritz[/name_m]
[name_m]Miguel[/name_m]
[name_m]Pascal[/name_m]
[name_f]Alba[/name_f]
[name_m]Gian[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m]
[name_m]Stefan[/name_m]
[name_m]Vincent[/name_m]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Tobias[/name_m]
[name_m]Victor[/name_m]
[name_m]Jonas[/name_m]
[name_u]Elia[/name_u]
I would use [name_m]Leo[/name_m] or a [name_m]Leo[/name_m]- name in the middle!
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Leonardo[/name_m]
[name_m]Fritz[/name_m] [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]
[name_m]Victor[/name_m] [name_m]Leonides[/name_m]
My favourites are [name_m]Stefan[/name_m] and [name_m]Mario[/name_m] and [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] and [name_m]Mario[/name_m].
But if you want them a little more match-y (in terms of italian/ spanish names) I would say [name_m]Pascal[/name_m] and [name_m]Mario[/name_m]!
Good luck!
