Goes with Cooper

Looking for a sibling name for our son Cooper. We consider Cooper to have a relaxed, cool, and sporty vibe. Also, it starts with a C and has the -ER ending.

We are trying to find names that aren't traditional but aren't too unusual either.

We want it to either have the same vibe as Cooper OR start with a C or K OR end with the -ER.

This is what we have so far, BUT I'd also love to hear more ideas in comments.

Re: Goes with Cooper

  • I feel like having another C name also ending in -ER is super matchy. Just my opinion though
  • Dexter, if you are ok with the tie to the TV serial killer, is by far the best. Carter is WAY to closer

  • Of all your names Dexter is the only one I like. It sounds okay with Cooper. The rest are nms and most of them don't sound great with Cooper, IMO. Carter and Parker in particular sound way to close to Cooper. Beckett also doesn't sound bad with Cooper, although I don't like the name as much as I like Dexter.

    Maybe Finn, Max, Jackson, Oliver, Logan, Reid, Quinn, Milo?
  • I like Beckett!

  • Thanks for all responses y'all. It's really helping us narrow down that list. We definitely have just eliminated Carter and Cash.
  • I voted for Beckett, I think it compliments Cooper really well and isn't matchy like some of the others
  • Dexter is the best and Beckett is the worst. How about Dashiell nn Dash?
  • I know a Cooper with a brother Foster.
  • Why do you want your two very individual children to have very similar names? They are different people. I think naming the second son something that starts and ends the same way will make it so hard for others to remember their names. 

    Brooks, Hugh, Bryce, and Austin all came you mind immediately. One thing you have to watch out for is when you say two names together that are traditionally surnames, it sounds like a weird law firm. "Cooper & Parker" for instance, sounds so odd. 

    There are some classic names that give that cool sporty vibe. Tom (Thomas), for instance, always makes me think of a very athletic boy. Ben (Bennett, Benjamin). Drew/Andy (Andrew). All are very masculine sporty sounding names that would work well with Cooper without sounding like a law firm or list of last names.

  • Dexter by default
  • Unless op edited... Ok pps, they said start "OR " end the same not "and". Personal problem I know, but it majorly annoys me when I say something and someone rants about what they misread.

  • I don't mind sibsets that start with the same letter but I dislike when names end with the same sound. So that eliminates Dexter, Carter, and Parker. I dislike Caden, Bowen, and Cash so by default, I'd go with Beckett but I can't vote for it because Becks is crazy...maybe Everett instead?

    But then her first name to vote on was Carter which starts AND ends the same as her first son, Cooper.

    Ya those are too much the same. I voted Parker. Just no more names that rhyme now! :)
