My 15 year old Asher is a great kid too and I always get compliments on the name. It was not popular in 2005!

I have a 1 year old Ari (so that's my vote!), but I also loved Ezra.

Never heard of Arion before so i don’t think it’s Jewish. The longer Jewish form of Ari would be Aryeh or Ariel (which is traditionally a boys name, still is in Israel)

Lev seems very Russian to me. Which is not nearly a bad thing but if you’re not actually Russian i guarantee he’ll get questions about it.

I really like Lev and don’t think it’s too “out there” though I’m not Jewish so I wouldn’t use it myself.

I also like PP’s suggestion Robert and nn Robbie

Also, here are some names of brothers of kids I know named Theo: Henry, Max, Jack, Miles, Oliver

Thank you!!

Congrats!

But they are complete names and the ones you listed are entirely separate names not long forms of the first 2. It’s like saying John isn’t a complete name because it should be Jonathan. Or Claire is incomplete and should be Clarice.

And yet my opinion stands. I clearly said “to me”.

Ari is a terrible name as a stand alone.

Yes but your opinion makes you sound like a very rigid uptight person who doesn’t know anyone from different cultures/ethnicities.
