Hi everyone, My fiancé have just found out we are having our second son and we're really struggling with a name we both like. We would like it to "go" with our first sons name "Osker". I really like Oliver,but my partner has suggested Hunter, Archer and Parker - but I don't really like them for my son. Their surnames are James, so something that would also sound good with that. ANY SUGGESTIONS???? Help!

I wouldn't pick anything that sounds like a surname with that surname - just because its a common first name and you'll get people not knowing which is which. Suggestions: Timothy Theodore Sebastian

I love Oliver, but definitely not with Osker. I wouldn't use Parker with it either. Archer is nice, but although it's my least favourite, Hunter would be my pick with Osker from those. Suggestions: Osker and Quinn Osker and Flynn Osker and Finn Osker and Milo Osker and Ethan Osker and Reuben Osker and Leon Osker and Marley Osker and Damon Osker and Eamon Osker and Lewis Osker and Brady Osker and Saxon Osker and Harvey Osker and Toby Osker and Levi Osker and Darcy Osker and Tyler Osker and Dylan Osker and Blair Osker and Seth Osker and Elias Osker and Hayden
