We are expecting our 3rd baby on [name_u]August[/name_u] 30th, and my husband and I still cannot decide on a name! The middle name will either be [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] or [name_m]Timothy[/name_m] after my husband. I usually like short and sweet/soft sounding names that are classic but not too popular.
We have our list narrowed down to: [name_u]Micah[/name_u], [name_m]Henry[/name_m], [name_u]Owen[/name_u], [name_m]Joel[/name_m], [name_u]Evan[/name_u] and [name_m]Ian[/name_m]. Any input on your favorites or other suggestions would be much appreciated!! Thank you!
[name_m]Joel[/name_m], [name_u]Evan[/name_u], and [name_m]Ian[/name_m] are my favorites from your list, not only because I like the names, but because I think they sound best with your middle name options.
[name_u]Micah[/name_u] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m]/[name_u]Micah[/name_u] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] - I can’t picture an adult or old man named [name_u]Micah[/name_u], and I don’t think it flows well with [name_m]Joshua[/name_m], but if you like [name_u]Micah[/name_u], I would go with [name_u]Micah[/name_u] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m].
[name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m]/[name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] - I think [name_m]Henry[/name_m] would age well, and it’s a nice name, though not my favorite. I don’t think it flows that well with either of your middle names, though. I’m not sure how much you care about that, though. If it doesn’t matter to you, then this would be a good option. It also sounds good with his siblings.
[name_u]Owen[/name_u] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m]/[name_u]Owen[/name_u] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] - I have never really liked [name_u]Owen[/name_u] all that much, but I think that it would age fairly well, and the names sound good together. This is a good option of you like the name enough.
[name_m]Joel[/name_m] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m]/[name_m]Joel[/name_m] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] - [name_m]Joel[/name_m] is one of my favorite of your names. I think it would age pretty well, and I especially like it with [name_m]Timothy[/name_m]. I would personally switch it so that it was [name_m]Timothy[/name_m] [name_m]Joel[/name_m] or [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] [name_m]Joel[/name_m], though. I like [name_f]Tara[/name_f], [name_u]Mason[/name_u], and [name_m]Joel[/name_m] together.
[name_u]Evan[/name_u] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m]/[name_u]Evan[/name_u] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] - my opinion on this name is essentially the same as it was for [name_m]Joel[/name_m]. (And again, I would personally make it [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] [name_u]Evan[/name_u] or [name_m]Timothy[/name_m] [name_u]Evan[/name_u].)
[name_m]Ian[/name_m] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m]/[name_m]Ian[/name_m] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] - another name that ages well, and I like this one with the mn [name_m]Timothy[/name_m] best. I like [name_m]Ian[/name_m] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m] as is, but I like [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] [name_m]Ian[/name_m] better than [name_m]Ian[/name_m] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m].
Suggestions:
[name_u]Jude[/name_u]
[name_u]Drew[/name_u]
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Levi[/name_m]
[name_m]Jonah[/name_m]
[name_m]Milo[/name_m]
[name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_m]Liam[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m]
[name_u]Seth[/name_u] (love this with [name_f]Tara[/name_f] & [name_u]Mason[/name_u])
My favorite firsts are [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_m]Henry[/name_m]. My personal pick would be [name_u]Owen[/name_u] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m], but I may be biased as I have an [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and my cousin has a baby [name_m]Henry[/name_m].
Another thought is [name_m]Timothy[/name_m] [name_u]Owen[/name_u] nickname ‘[name_u]Theo[/name_u]’. Good luck!
I forgot all about [name_f]Tara[/name_f] and [name_u]Mason[/name_u]…def like [name_u]Owen[/name_u] with those names!
[name_u]Owen[/name_u] or [name_u]Evan[/name_u]!
My favorites, in order, are [name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m], [name_m]Ian[/name_m] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m], and [name_u]Owen[/name_u] [name_m]Timothy[/name_m].
I guess one other thing to consider is whether or not you want another name ending in n, since you already have [name_u]Mason[/name_u]. ([name_m]Just[/name_m] think about if you like the sound of [name_u]Mason[/name_u] and [name_u]Owen[/name_u] or [name_u]Mason[/name_u] and [name_m]Ian[/name_m].) Personally I would avoid it, but maybe it doesn’t bother you.
