Vintage boys name with cute nickname

[tweetybird818]

Hello.

Looking for suggestions for our little man. We already have a daughter called Evelyn Rose (Evie/Eve) and hubby insists it needs to be a name we can shorten to a cutesy nickname and he doesnt like anything too different or unique.

Middle name will likely be John.

Some names we like but can't use due to family are:

Oliver (Ollie)
Charles (Charlie)
Frederick (Freddie)
Archer (Archie)

(Hmm side note, im sensing we gravitate towards nicknames that end in ie &#128514

Ive also suggested Theodore (theo), Thomas (Tommy), Oscar (Ossie) and Jasper but he hasn't liked any.

He also is super unhelpful and can't give me another suggestion he does like!

We have an Oscar, who gets ocka as that's what he called himself when he was little.

And a Joseph, who will get Joe, joey or roo

Your name list is fairly similar to mine (or would be if my siblings hadn't already used half the names!). I even have an Evelyn (Evie) already too!

Ollie, Charlie and Thomas are already used. I used to look after an Archie and can't bear using that. My brothers dog was Jasper so that's written off too.

Thanks to some lovely ladies on here I'm adding Theo, Fraser and Fletcher.

Other ideas:
William / will, billy, Liam
Alfred / Alfie, Freddie
Albert / albie, Bertie
Felix
Benjamin / benji
Henry.

[Jbree]

Albert - bertie albie
Arthur - arty

 

[Stategirl]

Samuel and Sammy for nickname

 

[Amygdala]

Jacob - Jake
Harold - Harry

Or for really vintage, maybe
Bertram - Bertie
Reginald - Regie
Archibald - Archie

 

[6lilpigs]

Albert - bertie albie
Arthur - arty

These are two of my boys names, love them
Plus maybe
James - Jimmy, Jim, JJ for James John, Jimmy John.
