Help with this name please

Only a month away but we can't decide on a boy name. We already have a Diego. Here are our some names we like let me know which names you like more. Feel free to suggest other names as well, thanks in advance.

1. Andres (mn possibly Kane)
2. Kane (mn unknown)
3. Cruz (mn unknown)

Re: Help with this name please

Andres - this is very handsome, and goes well with Diego.
Kane - I'm not particularly fond of the sound of this one.
Cruz - this is all Beckham to me, I'm afraid.

So Andres gets my vote!

Re: Help with this name please

I second Twinkle's post, and am also casting my vote for Andres.
:-) I think it's perfect with Diego, which I think is very handsome.

Good luck!

Re: Help with this name please

I would like to persuade you against using Kane (Cain). Are you aware of the Biblical story where Cain (Kane) killed his brother Abel? I think that this association makes this name off limits, although I have to admit it does have a nice modern vibe and I can see the attraction of it.

Andre not Andres is a handsome name.
Cruz also is a manly name that is right for a man or a child. It is more unusual too , therefore I think it has more in common with Diego than Andre.

I think Cruz and Diego would make great brothers.

Suggest

Cruz Ramon
Andre Simon

Re: Help with this name please

My vote is for Andres, an Estonian and Spanish version of Andrew.
Andres Leon (you could pronounce it lay-OHN) is handsome.
Andres Cruz

Re: Help with this name please

I would avoid Kane because of the Cain and Abel association, but I like both Andres and Cruz with Diego. With Cruz, I do think of the Beckhams, but I like it anway. I vote for Cruz!

I agree that you shouldn't use Kane, both because of the association with Cain of the Bible and because I don't think it fits very well with Diego. Beckham or not, Cruz is still my favorite to go with Diego - spunky and cool, but still manly and handsome. Andres seems too classic, perhaps, to go with Diego.

Diego and ...

Carlos
Cesar
Dezi
Elian
Jairo
Javier
Joaquin
Mateo
Miguel
Rafael
Rico
Ruben
Zavier

Like any of those? I really like Diego with Dezi, Joaquin, Mateo, and Rafael!

Re: Help with this name please

Andres - DW loves it. I like it.
Cruz - I love it. She doesn't like it.

Andres Cruz - like it, but It sounds like Cruz could be the last name & we have a Diego Cru, mn's would be almost exact.

We also thought about Mario.

Re: Help with this name please

I am very found of Kane but i like it better with the Cain spelling (to get away from the monster from hell WWE/WWF connection). It is a VERY strong handsom name to me and in my opinion goes very well with Diego
Now with Andres, the only andres i ever knew was a gangbangers drug user so i automatically have a bad connection with this name. Andres does go well with Diego, i just dont like the sound of Andres but like i said im biast.
Cruz is very handsome to me also. Im not quite sure about Cruz and Diego.
My vote goes for Cain, with that spelling. good luck!

Re: Help with this name please

I like Andres :)

Diego & Andres are nice together.

Mario is kind of cool also Marius and Marcus come to mind
