Boys Names

Hey all!
So I've recently had a baby boy, and my husband and I are thinking about the next one...because we're crazy. We have a girls name all set and ready to go, but not another boys name. I need suggestions for a good boys name.

Critera:
- Must go well with John Russell
- Must go well with the last name Parker
- Popular is ok, but I'd prefer something not trendy.

Right now my husband likes the name Dennis and I like the name Scott, but we both hate each others picks. Thanks!

Whoops, I thought you said you wanted a girls name. That's what I get for multi-tasking. :D

Anyway, I like Dennis and Scott, and they go well together in either order.

Other suggestions: Aaron, Christopher, Alex, Austin, Benjamin, and Robert.

I like John Russell a lot, and I like Dennis, but not Scott - it seems dated, but Dennis is a classic name. I think it's similar in style to Russell, so maybe put it as the middle name?

Hugh Dennis Parker
Andrew Dennis Parker
Colin Dennis Parker
Miles Dennis Parker

Jack is a variation of John and I think people would start calling him Jack Russell and it'd be awkward.

Most people don't know someone's middle name unless they know them well enough to know that they go by John instead of Jack. And despite it being a breed of dog, I don't think it's that weird.

Dennis Scott Parker sounds really nice to me XD

I like John and James as a sib-set. What about:

James Wyatt Parker

My partner is a John and his brother's name is Andrew. I think John and Andrew sound good together *nod nod* Perhaps Andrew Scott or Scott Andrew?

Haha, what's even more funny is that our last name is Barker, very similar to yours ;D

Haha, no, I'm a Louise... but that's still weird! And that's perfectly fair enough lol :P

My first thought was Isaac. Maybe Isaac Benjamin.
