Need a name!

[DSillustration]

Hey Guys,

Baby Boy #2 will be here soon (just 3 weeks),
and my wife and I STILL can't decide on a name.
Figured I would toss the query out there to the most creative folk I know.

The facts:

My name is Daniel Dos Santos (Dos AND Santos are both part of my last name, it's 2 words).
My first son's name is Uno Dos Santos.

Before anyone states the obvious, no, we will not be naming the second child "Dos Dos Santos".

Suggestions?
We are getting desperate!

[Interceptor]

First of all, congrats, mate.

How about: Loren ;)
heheh.

Seriously, though. If you're nto going for some whacked spacey Hollywood name, I think Samuel Dos Santos has a nice ring to it.
Always been a fan of Milo, as well!

[Gory]

Tres? :x

[el coro]

no Dos dos santos? hhaha...what about thresa? i always figured if i got stumped i could just go to the old paint pile and pick something out of there. cinnabar, sienna,violet, transparent red oxide lake, or maybe a digital crossover, like "color dodge" or "flip horizontal"...okay, if its a girl you probably dont want to name her flip horizontal, but i mean come on, "liquify" is a beautiful name for a girl. im not helping so illl just shut up. congrats on # 2 dude.

edit: so i just re read and realized its a boy. liquify is a GREAT name foir a boy. so is lens flare AND layer mask.

Maybe you could make some money on this deal. You know how some companies pay people if they tattoo the company logo on them? How about if you sell the kid's name to some giant corporation for life time advertising or something. You know like, Pepsi Dos Santos, Nabisco Dos Santos, or Apple....yeah that's it Apple Dos Santos.

OK that was stupid. Sorry.

[DSillustration]

Tres? :x

We are saving that one for the next kid.

Milo is cool, because of this book (http://www.amazon.com/Phantom-Tollbooth-Norton-Juster/dp/0394815009), and it keeps with the two syllables, "o" ending theme. Of course, keep that up and you're into Marx Brothers territory (Zeppo Dos Santos?)

I've always liked Parrish, but it's kind of WASPy.

Damn, boy's names are tough! You lucked out with the first one.

[Elwell]

no Dos dos santos? hhaha...what about thresa? i always figured if i got stumped i could just go to the old paint pile and pick something out of there. cinnabar, sienna,violet, transparent red oxide lake,
Pthalo Dos Santos.

[stoph]

i love the name Ortega. seriously, if i could justify changing my name it would be Ortega. i like O names, and am partial to Oliver, too. Ollie Dos Santos :P grats on the bub mate, im expecting lots of happy snaps!

[Elwell]

Bosco!

[Carl Dobsky]

Pthalo Dos Santos.

Actually, Pthalo is the name of James Kei's dog.

[Earendil]

Vincent
JC
Perrin
Doran
Luca(s)
Justice
Stephen
Dimitri

Congrats on the new baby! :) Two syllable names with the accent on the first syllable, seem to have the best rhythm when saying the full name.

[Idiot Apathy]

I dunno, Daniel Dos Santos the Second has a sort of repetitive appeal to it ...
Congrats :)

[Craig D]

Miguel Dos Santos.
Rolls off the tounge easily.
Congrats on number 2

[Bill]

Maybe a nice Italien name like Otto... it means "Eight" ;)

[poise]

hey Dan Congrats!
Ok here are some:
Daun(short for Daunte) Dos Santos
Damian Dos Santos

Sorry only two, Got to go, but I will think of more for ya. ;)

[Minja]

Hmm, I've always liked Alistair.

Alistair Dos Santos has a nice ring to it. I've always like Dominic too.

Dominic Dos Santos, or even Dom Dos Santos.

This may seem cheesy but I like my name too haha. But Trevor Dos Santos doesn't quite have that oomph.

Good luck!

[Kamikazebob]

Seetharaman Dos Santos

[stoph]

yeh i second dominic, it works well

[serhc]

Maximus
Prometheus
Icarus
Us Dos Santos

[Dian3]

Segundo Dos Santos?

[Mirana]

Hmm, you might look into "two/second" in another language...perhaps related to the ancestry of momma.

zwei (german), dois (portugese), deux (french), ka'a (mayan), segundo (spanish: "born second"), etcetc

[alesoun]

Juan dos Santos?

Congrats, anyways!

[kab]

Well, Kim is a good name, or André... :p Both are even better...

I also liked the idea of Layer Mask Dos Santos that someone suggested, would make a good superhero-name, his power is to hide parts of the world from his enemies, so they walk into lightposts and fall into manholes etc. :)

-Kim André

[N D Hill]

Many Congrats.

I have to admit though, I'd be giving you my second tier choices for baby names since every time I think of something good, I want to save it for my future progeny. In other words, I keep Seven and I'll give you Soda.

Vincent
Wallace
Winston
Dorian
Julian
Marsellus

Again, congratulations to you and your family.

[Gory]

Hmm, on a (slightly) more serious side I do have one piece of advice.

Don't name him anything that could be confused for you or your other son's name. I had to grow up with that nightmare.

My name is Jake... My Father's name is Jack... and my brother's name is Zack.

Combine that with a mother who has only been speaking English about as long as my older brother has been alive and you essentially only have one name.

Koreans have a hard time with 'z' sounds, apparently. (they sound like a 'j' sound)

Anyway, save yourself the trouble.

[Elwell]

Carlos Dos Santos

[Farsh]

Alejandro Dos Santos

Donato (I really like this one, and not just for Donato G. :))
Enzo
Marco
Marcello
Raphael

I guess I like italian names, but they just didn't work well with Lyon, so I ended up with an Issac and Alexander.

[Larriva Art]

Santos
middle name Dos
Santos Dos Dos Santos

Congrats on #2!

[TASmith]

So is your second child a boy or girl? Assuming its a boy?

How about Steven? Or Andrew? Possibly Phillip?

[Opilione]

You seriously called your first kid "Uno" or have I just fallen into the sarchasm?

I like "Winston".

[Peter Coene]

Pick something out of the band name thread. I mean, "dos santos" already sounds like some sort of Latin band name...

[Dizon]

Daniel Dos Santos II !!!

[Peter Coene]

Daniel Dos Santos II !!!
you mean "Daniel Dos Santos Dos?"

[Jacob Kobryn]

Vandræðaskáld
Yeah, Vandræðaskáld Dos Santos ... definitely.

[kidult]

You named your kid Uno dos Santos - how much will he be beaten on at school?
Probably gonna be scarred for life - unless the 2nd one gets a funnier name.

[Call0ps]

well how about Johnny Dos Santos?

[Undertow]

How about Logan Daniel Dos Santos? Logan means "Hollow" which could translate into your life as one that is open to create anything within. When you are given a blank canvas you are free to create anything:)

[Grumbledook]

for the record uno dos santos is a great name imo

needs to grow up to be a professional footballer, proper football tho, not the american kind

the headlines the newspapers could come up with on the sports pages with a name like that is outstanding

[Venger]

So no C:/Dos Santos then!

'Cee' maybe, go on ....for all of us nerds out there :P

[Costau D]

Korbin

Dallas

Lilu Multipass

Rascal (raz for short)

[Costau D]

Yeah that sounds good.

Or you can just make his name a symbol.

[The Whistler]

Hey DS! First of all congrats on the kid :)
I wouldn't normally reply to this BUT I found an awesome site when I was googling men names for my characters, here it is - NAMES (http://www.resourcesforlife.com/library/names/masculine.htm) :)

You have some great names there complete with meanings which is great IMO :)

e.g. Ben - Hebrew meaning son or Gaelic meaning peak (Also a short form of Benedict and Benjamin) and Ben Dos Santos has a nice ring to it :)

Anyways, I hope this was at least a bit helpful and good luck with choosing a name :)

[Seer]

Dante Dos Santos
Anton Dos Santos feels weird in your mouth
Hugo Dos Santos
Bruno Dos Santos

and of course I'm partial to:
Andrea(s) Dos Santos

Bon Jovi Dos Santos? Yup, I think we're done here.

I like Vaughn Dos Santos as well.

... and congrats by the way

[Bowlin]

Zwei Dos Santos (Zwei - German for "two") Sounds like a girls name

Divi Dos Santos (Divi - Latvian for "two") Sounds like a girl also

Deux Dos Santos (Deux - French for "two") Sounds like a guys name

[robinchyo]

Congrats, Dan!

I'm going to throw in Frederick Dos Santos, Zorn Dos Santos, and Huey Dos Santos.

I think Dos Santos goes nicely with everything, though..

[DigitallyDumbfounded]

Haha, such great suggestions.
:^^:


I like:
Joshua
Phillip and
Janosch (it sounds good in german, at least, also is the author of those great children books)

Congrats! Yess, artists conquer the world!!1! :D(...no really, lots of people pregnant here lately, sweet.)

[Dave_]

Galactimus destroyer of worlds Dos Santos?

[Carnifex]

Miguel Dos Santos.
Rolls off the tounge easily.
Congrats on number 2

seconded,in all aspects.

[Peter Coene]

Zwei Dos Santos (Zwei - German for "two") Sounds like a girls name

Divi Dos Santos (Divi - Latvian for "two") Sounds like a girl also

Deux Dos Santos (Deux - French for "two") Sounds like a guys name
I like these, but Deux is going to confuse teacher's trying to call attendance.

"Day-ucks? Dyoooks? Duce?"

Whoa, I know! Just name him "Number Two." He can go on to get an eyepatch and work for Dr. Evil.

[Ilaekae]

Donatello (Don) Dos Santos
Michael Dos Santos
Albert Dos Santos
Leonardo Dos Santos
Duncan Dos Santos
Daemon Dos Santos
There R. Dos Santos

[DavePalumbo]

Logan got shot down?

I'm still for Bilbo Dos Santos :P

[Ilaekae]

I don't know what he's gonna name this one, but the seventh or eighth is going to be...

There Are Too Damn Many Dos Santos






:P

[arttorney]

Congratulations!

Maybe you can keep your motif going by naming him "Numero Dos Santos" although thee is some danger he'll get the nickname "number two" now that I think about it.

How about Ecthelion Dos Santos?

[tmbritton]

Diablo Dos Santos

Also make sure to get him some sweet face tattoos before he starts school. And brass knuckles.

[Grief]

Jack Dos Santos

The name Jack has so many meanings in today's society.

But looking at the Uno name you might be looking for a more unique name.

Duos Dos Santos

Latin for Two. I quite like Latin.

[scott*altmann]

Adrienne was just asking if you had your baby yet :)
For my amusement you should consider:

Larry Dos Santos
Barry Dos Santos
Herman Dos Santos
Melvin Dos Santos
Diego Dos Santos - hey, that's not bad
or
Dylan Dos Santos- I like that name for obvious reasons

Hope you and the fam are doing well. We need to catch up eventually, but I'm sure you have your hands full now. Talk soon and congrats again bud.

[Jacob Kobryn]

All the Logans I've ever met have been bad people... I wouldn't ever name my kid Logan.

You should name him after your favorite artist. Not that I'd ever name my kid HR. ;)

[stoph]

wolverine isnt bad, just misunderstood!

im now thinking Rufio Dos Santos. then you can run around the house, crowing like a rooster, screaming "RU-FI-OHHHHH!!" ;)

edit: that and it gives him every permission to have a red mohawk and carry a sword. the red tights are optional.

[Jasonwclark]

Diego Dos Santos - hey, that's not bad

Diego - I like it.

I don't usually go for the generic, but Jimmy 'Two Saints' is like the perfect gangster name in translation. :)

I guess Tommy 'Two Saints' would work pretty good too if you wanted to go that route (Thomas). But Diego gets you the Velasquez shout and keeps with the D-O thing, whereas Thomas would only give you the O, so right now I think its probably the stronger of the two. Or maybe Johnny 'Two Saints' (Juan)? Too close to "One" probably.

Anyway, the point is that you have a pretty badass last name to work with, so you can't go wrong really.
Best of luck man.

[Elwell]

Los Dos Santos

493748

[Maestro Andres]

Secundus Dos Santos
Dois Dos Santos
Another Dos Santos
Taco Dos Santos

[Sorknes]

My first obvious idea was MS Dos Santos, of course.... :P

After that it was Damon Dos Santos.

And after that it was Demon Dos Santos and Daemon Dos Santos....

*lol*

Not much help, I guess.

[Undertow]

Logan got shot down?

I'm still for Bilbo Dos Santos :P

I figured if it was good enough for my wife and I to chose as a name for our first son that it'd be a decent suggestion for someone else;) After all, it's not the name that defines someone, it's their upbringing and the possibilities they create in life that shapes how they impact their communities.

[Carnifex]

Donatello (Don) Dos Santos


ohh,even better.
i think i'll stick with this as my favourite.
it has an absolutely superb ring to it.

[nicolas]

The only problem with that is he has to have 3 more sons after that to complete the team. And Uno will be nicknamed Splinter.

[stoph]

his first daughter can be April Dos Santos ;)

[Crane]

Solomon dos santos

chalice dos santos - for kicks

santos dos santos

hehe,atleast they'll have a motivation then...;)

[Sundance]

I have always been a fan of Xavier (McDaniel...not Charles)

Machupa (Swahili for: he likes to Drink) would be a very interesting rare name too.

[Serpian]

My first son's name is Uno Dos Santos.

Haha, really? Wow that's awesome!

And congratulations on the second one. How about:

Andreas Dos Santos?

[breistift]

GLaDOS Santos![portal]

[alesoun]

Ioan Dos Santos! I dunno why, but I likes it!

[Kagemusha22]

Richard Dos Santos. According to Wikipedia it's meaning is 'strong leader.'

Dylan Dos Santos, Carlo Dos Santos, Kerouac Dos Santos, Jake Dos Santos, Alexander Dos Santos, Sal Dos Santos and Derrick Dos Santos,... yeah sorry I've got nothing.

[Robert.B]

Los Luchas Dos Santos

or Quetzalcoatl Do Santos

[VulgarDragon]

Deuteronomy Dos Santos.

Maybe not...they would nickname him "Dootie Doo"

Beauregard Dos Santos
Bubba Dos Santos

[Arshes Nei]

Go with a Middle Eastern name and really stir up the perception of the melting pot ;)

I love the name game. Go the other way Million Dos Santos or I also love the Minion. Minion Dos Santos. But I particularly fond of Che Dos Santos.
Congrats on number two. I have four. You may want to think about stopping after this. Kidding.
