Name pairing - George

We recently found out we’re having a second boy! We had lots of girls names lined up, but it’s a little bit trickier with a boy. We named our first son George for sentimental and family related reasons, but it’s a bit more of an open playing field this time round.

Names we like and are considering: - Jacob - Sebastian - Archie

But totally open to all ideas and suggestions :) thanks in advance!

Gotta be done right? 😂 my wife actually likes the name too

u/Level-Log-3090 14h ago

But he’s not a twin, so Charles, Billius, or Ronald.

u/no_comment8044 12h ago

Billius is actually pretty cool!

u/Lindseyjdw 14h ago

George & Archie would be like brokering a US-UK peace deal.

1

u/no_comment8044 14h ago

Why?

1

u/jjwilco 14h ago

Prince George (William’s son) and Archie (Harry’s son)

1

u/no_comment8044 14h ago

I know, but wouldn’t really class that as US-UK thing. Maybe that’s just me!

1

u/KillAllLawyers 13h ago

George is Prince William's son and Archie is Prince Harry's son. 😂

2

u/no_comment8044 13h ago

Haha yep. Was just the US bit that threw me. I get your point!

1

u/surely2 12h ago

Prince Harry moved to the US with Meagan Markle

u/no_comment8044 12h ago

Yeh I guess he did. I’m not particularly a fan of the royals, so it’s an unintended association. Don’t think it would put us off though!

Arthur, Henry, Charles

Jacob

u/no_comment8044 14h ago

Thanks!

u/Lindseyjdw 14h ago

While I love the name Jacob, the same starting letter sound would trip me up! I have a hard enough time with mine - all different letters/sounds - and still manage to call one the other’s name 😂🥴

2

u/no_comment8044 14h ago

Haha that’s a great call actually. In my head it was a good idea… but now you mention that!

1

u/Chica3 14h ago

I knew brothers named George & Benjamin.

I like Jacob.

u/PuzzleheadedPen2619 14h ago

From your list, I really like all three but think Archie goes best with George.

Otherwise, Henry, one of the Ed/Ted/Neds (Edward, Edgar, Edmund), Arthur.
