I like Peregrine Cecil and Peregrine Rufus, though I'm not a big fan of Peregrine. Love the meaning, though.

For the longest time I thought Peregrine seemed silly and over-the-top, but in recent months I've come to like it. I know someone with a 2 year old Peregrine, so I guess it seems more usable to me now. It's so awesomely adventurous.Of your combos I like:
Peregrine Aubrey
Peregrine August
Peregrine Felix
Peregrine Louis
Peregrine Miles
Peregrine PhilipI thought I had a lot of combos with it, but turns out I only have Peregrine Joseph with it as a first name. I have some ones with it as a middle name, though:
Abner Peregrine
Bowen Peregrine
Clancy Peregrine
Dacre Peregrine - my favorite
Emlyn Peregrine
Nash Peregrine - I like this a lot, too
Ruarc Peregrine
Rupert Peregrine
Topher Peregrine

I've always adored the name Peregrine, and lately I've been thinking of using it in a twinset with Meriadoc (yeah, I like Lord of the Rings)! One of my friends once knew a Peregrine, and she's always spoken highly of him.I really like...
Peregrine Alfred
Peregrine Anselm
Peregrine Arthur
Peregrine Cecil
Peregrine Francis
Peregrine George - I always really liked George Peregrine
Peregrine Hugh
Peregrine Isaac
Peregrine Laurence
Peregrine Lucius
Peregrine Matthew
Peregrine Oswald
Peregrine Philip
Peregrine Samuel
Peregrine Ulrich
Peregrine WallaceI can suggest:
Horatio Peregrine - this would be cute considering Peregrine means travel and Horatio has generally marine associations!
Peregrine Montgomery
Peregrine Montmorency
Peregrine Iskander
Peregrine Henry
Severus Peregrine
Peregrine Prosper
Peregrine Jabez
Peregrine Asa
Peregrine Ezra
