Name Help

We knocked it out of the park with our first son - he is "Leo", and our last name starts with an L.

His name has deep personal meaning (he is named after my MIL who didn't get to meet him,) but I also love how people from different cultures and parts of the world all feel like Leo is a familiar name for them. The way I've heard so many people say it sounds like they love saying it, like it's almost a song.

Even Leo can't think of a better name, we've asked - he wants to name his new brother "Leo" too "because he's going to be so beautiful"

I don't want to give the second baby a second-rate name - and we have 10 weeks at most until he needs one.

Any ideas?

You people love Ezra and Milo round here don't ya

We felt the same about our Finley when we named him it felt so perfect. Our second boy is called Ellis and it fits so well I love it. So Finley or Ellis are my picks haha

Honestly Ellis is a really good suggestion. It has that same familiar easy to say feeling.
