Answer 4

You might consider a variation of James and use it instead of a nickname.  I love the name Jameson.  Maybe call him Jay or J.J. if you need it shorter?  

Names are so personal and the way one person views one is totally different from another's views.  I may see a name as strong, you may see it as sissy.

That being said,  here's a few strong names I like:

Apollo                                Malcom

Benjamin                           Maxwell

Bryson                               Nathaniel

Crispin                               Samson

Daniel

Duke (I knew a hot lifeguard with this name :)

Edison

Gannon

Also, you can't go wrong with Greek God names!  Very manly

The book I chose to look from is, The Baby Name Wizard.  I LOVED it becuase it didn't define the names so much as explain how society often views the name and what it's related to.  Good luck!

Answer 5

Hoe about:

Samual (Sam)

Henry

Milo (I really like this one, but I realize it's not to everyones taste!)

Jacob (Jake)

Hope I helped...Best of Luck!!

Answer 9

How 'bout;

"RAJAH"-nickname HAJAR

"DATU"  -nickname UTAD

"HARI"   -nickname IRAH (pronounced as ERA)

These are Ancient Filipino names for a King...and there are a lot more...consult google.com type ALIBATA or key in the word TAWAG SA MGA SINAUNANG HARI SA PILIPINAS...

Answer 10

hmmm...well theres Demetri, Jensen, Channing, Hayden. and they arent much common....

Answer 11

I like Jeremey and Tyson( coz then you can have ty for short which is cute)

and i like the name taj...although thats probably not a strong name

Answer 12

Hunter, Logan, Alexander, Tyler, Cameron, Brendon all are strong, masculine names.

Answer 13

hmm.. Jacob, Finn, Caleb, William, Oliver.

they sound quite strong to me

I reckon Finn is a gorgeous name

Answer 14

James is a nice name.  I don't any reason why you couldn't call him James.  A lot of babies are named after their fathers or uncles, and it's not even the same name anyway.  

Other kind of King/royal names:

William

David

Richard

Andrew

Henry

Arthur

Steven/Stephen

George

Charles

Harry

Answer 15

I'll suggest middle names and first names.

Sean Wyatt

Christopher Michael

Nicholas Charles

Paul Alexander

Charles Arthur

William Henry

John Henry (could be two first names)

Mitchell Scott

Edward Thomas

Oliver Alexander

Thomas Lee

Matthew Stuart

Matthew Alexander

Vincent Henry

Adam Thomas

Thomas Adam

Jackson Blair

Douglas Robertson

Gregory Adam

Hope you like them!

Answer 16

I like:

Elijah

Anthony

Nathaniel

Russell

Samuel

Hayden

Timothy

Thomas

Leo

Jack

Harrison

Theo

Isaac

Matthew

Nicholas

Michael

(Not all of them are king names, but they are all good, strong, normal names, and traditional; but some are more unique and uncommon than others).

Answer 17

Mark

David

Eric

Gray

Harry

Jack

Joseph

gosh, there are tons!

Answer 18

I love the name Adam.

If i had a baby boy i would name him that, but i don't :), so you should

Answer 19

If you like the name James, and your brother is Jamie, why not name your child James, and actually call him James.  It's a beautiful name (rather handsome name), is short for spelling it forever, and I know several people who prefer to be called James.
