3 days until baby/ name SOS post!
If you’ve already seen this in the boys forum, sorry for the repeat!

I have 3 boys that all go by their middles… First name is a family classic and middle is more fun with maybe a nickname.

James Collier
William Fitzgerald
Charles Shepherd

They go by “Collier, Fitz & Shep"

This baby’s first name will be George, but he will go by his middle. Which is your favorite with our other boys names?

I do love [name_m]Locke[/name_m] for you :heart: but [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] would be my next pick

[name_m]Wilder[/name_m] is amazing! I also really like [name_m]George[/name_m] [name_m]Pierce[/name_m].

I think they’re all great contenders. I personally went with [name_m]Townes[/name_m], the sound just clicked with the sibset for me.

I love [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] as a name, but (well, other than Shepherd) it’s more familiar and expected than the other boys’ names, as well as matching [name_m]Collier[/name_m] in sound. Right now, the 3 boys have very original and distinct names.

[name_m]Locke[/name_m] would be my second choice, or perhaps my first, if I wasn’t on a Lost binge and very over the name at this point in time :laughing:

[name_m]Bridger[/name_m] lost a point on the repeat -er ending, but I think it’s also a great option.

[name_m]Pierce[/name_m] I think doesn’t fit quite as well?

I think a good test is running them all together aloud, [name_m]Collier[/name_m], [name_m]Fitz[/name_m], [name_m]Shep[/name_m] and -blank-, come here right now!

Thanks for all the insight! Curious where you live that Wilder is a used name. We live in GA and I haven’t met a single one yet! I also wonder if Townes is the next Wells- uncommon now and popular 5 years from now. We somehow didn’t know anyone with our current kids’ names before naming them and now we know 3 Colliers, 3 Fitz’s and 2 Shep’s🙃

I voted for [name_m]Townes[/name_m] b/c I like the way he sounds with [name_m]Collier[/name_m], [name_m]Fitz[/name_m], & [name_m]Shep[/name_m] the most… but honestly any of your choices would work great. Maybe it will just come down to what he looks like when you meet him :heart:

Not the 3 Colliers and 3 Fitzs :sob:

I’ll eat up my comments, [name_f]Georgia[/name_f] was too unexpected for that. I do suppose the Wilders were along the coasts that I’ve seen. How interesting!
