Boy name questions

I was thinking about the name Gus for a brother to Jack. Then someone mentioned that Gus and Jack are the mice on Cinderella! Who would think of that? LOL

Anyway...my husband is picky and it was difficult to name Jack. So, I'm trying to come up with just a couple names to run by him. I could use some help.

I like...
James Cash, we would likely call him "Cash"
I like...
Henry Foster, but our last name starts with an "H"...so I don't know.

I've gone through all the classics and I'm not liking too many of them.

I like Cash...what are some other cool names like Cash that I could play around with??

Thanks!

I didn't know that about the mice too funny! I doubt ANYONE would think of that.But I have a friend whose son is Jack and they just had another DS and named HIM Gus! I think Jack and Gus are great together.

Being a mom of a Jack, we also had trouble coming up with a name that Goes with Jack....We settled on Sam (saw a boys room in the pottery barn kids catalog that had Jack and Sam on the wall LOL!!....If pottery barn says it's a good match, than it must be LOL!!)

Anyway, if we were to have another boy, our names to choose from are:

Henry (this is the front runner right now)
Finn (Griffin and call him Finn)
Gray (Grayson and call him Gray)

**Great taste in names by the way LOL!!

That is too fuuny about Pottery Barn, but they are right! I know 3 Jacks ALL of whom have a brother names Sam. The other names you hear paired with those are often Ben, Luke and Henry. I suppose that the names Jack and Sam just appeal to the same people!

I was just about to post this very thing! Weston loves Cinderella so I was about to say it is Jaq not Jack, but they are very similar.
