Bram
The post below mentioned Abram, which reminded me of Bram. My sister has two kids and has been thinking of having another so I've slowly been feeding her name ideas. I think Bram would go well with Cordelia and Dean, if she were to have another boy. I think a big part of why I love it is because Bram Stoker is one of my favorite writers. The Judge's House (https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Judge%27s_House) is one of my most favorite scary short stories ever. Most people think of Dracula when they hear his name but he wrote a lot of horror -some of it quite weird and not always great, but some quite good. Anyway, what do you all think of Bram? I think it's strong and handsome.

I know lol But she and her husband had a hard time choosing a name so I told them it would help to make a list of characters from movies, books, shows, etc that they like and see if they like any of their names... well, they like Buffy and Supernatural so I guess that's what they went with lolTheir youngest is four now though so I've gotten used to it. I think it helps that Dean mostly goes by Dean Wesley, both his first and middle name.

I think I may like the spelling Brahm better, it makes more sense pronunciation-wise. It reminds me of a horror movie, The Boy, where the doll is named Brahms so unfortunately it gives me kinda creepy little boy vibes. Other than that, I think it's handsome, too. Along the lines of Brady but less... annoying. A cool vintage feel name, and it seems to go well with Cordelia and Dean. An okay choice, but I think there could be better names out there if you or your sister isn't set on this one.
