I need unique boy names. I have an 8-year-old son named Otto. I love the funky "old" names. If we have a daughter, we already know her name will be Juliette but I cannot for the life of me think of a boy name.

My son's middle name is Arthur after his grandad. You don't really hear it anymore, I love it. Declan is a super old Irish name that you don't hear very much anymore either. Elton, Alfred. I met a toddler named Abel recently.

I love the name Abel, but my best friend has a 10-year-old with that name. Super jealous lol

I had a boss with a boy named Atticus. Thought that was cool and different! Might go nicely with Otto :)

@Agreekgirl89,
I will have to see if i can get my husband on board with Atticus. He is so boring with names and just wants a brad or Josh lol

I’m seeing a double T theme in your names so here’s some other boy names that might fit that ☺️
Bennett
Wyatt
Beckett
Elliott
Rhett
Everett
Sutton
Matthias/Matteo
Patton
Some other names I think could work:
Sullivan
Boone
Graham
Finn
Miles
Levi
I do like Atticus too as pp mentioned.

Juliet is much more formal than Otto but it’s fabulous! With your son‘s name I immediately think Marlo, Darby, Sully, Clyde, Amos, Freddie, Garnet, Woodrow, Percy, Edgar, Lars
