Back again! [name_f]My[/name_f] son and daughter in law are expecting their first baby in 9 weeks…They kind of agree on Mack/Mac, Nathan/Nate, Zachary/Zach, Wesley/Wes. She loves [name_m]Nash[/name_m] and is open to many others ideas. [name_f]My[/name_f] son says no to most names, his first choice is [name_m]Howard[/name_m], after a special uncle which they agreed can be his middle name, he also “doesn’t mind”Owen, [name_m]Mac[/name_m] was his original first choice. I don’t think there are any more names out there that we haven’t seen or suggested. Let’s see what you all can do to find a name that they both love!
Beckett/Beck
Benjamin/Ben
[name_m]Bowen[/name_m]
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m]
[name_m]Christian[/name_m]
[name_m]Connor[/name_m]
[name_m]Cooper[/name_m]
[name_m]Dalton[/name_m]
[name_m]Edward[/name_m]
[name_m]Garrison[/name_m]
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m]
[name_m]Harvey[/name_m]
[name_m]James[/name_m]
[name_m]Joseph[/name_m]
Josiah/Joe
[name_m]Lee[/name_m]
[name_m]Macklin[/name_m]
[name_m]Noah[/name_m]
Raymond/Ray
Silas/Si
[name_m]Sylvester[/name_m]
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m]
[name_m]Vincent[/name_m]
[name_m]Westin[/name_m]
I think any of the names they kind of agree on work well with [name_m]Howard[/name_m] in the middle. I would encourage some balance in the name. For example, since your son is picking the middle name, maybe your daughter-in-law can have more say in the first name? Especially if baby is getting dad’s surname…
[name_m]Mac[/name_m] / [name_m]Mack[/name_m] sounds like a great option for them, especially since it has the punchy one-syllable appeal of [name_m]Nash[/name_m]. Since many of their other full names are biblical, maybe they would also consider [name_m]Malachi[/name_m] nn [name_m]Mac[/name_m]?
You’ve probably had these suggested already, but their style also brought to mind:
[name_m]Nolan[/name_m]
[name_m]Malcolm[/name_m] (Mac)
[name_m]Bennett[/name_m] (Ben)
[name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] (Mac or Max)
[name_m]Caleb[/name_m] (Cal)
[name_m]Miles[/name_m]
[name_m]Nicholas[/name_m] (Nick)
[name_m]Lucas[/name_m] (Luke)
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m] (Zac or Ike)
[name_m]Jacob[/name_m] (Jake)
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m] (Alex or Alec)
[name_m]Asher[/name_m]
[name_m]Finn[/name_m]
[name_m]Everett[/name_m] (Rhett)
[name_m]Holden[/name_m]
[name_m]Knox[/name_m]
[name_m]Jett[/name_m]
[name_m]Hayes[/name_m]
Thanks! These are great suggestions…we have talked about many. I agree with you about my daughter in law being happy , that’s why I am writing in again…We love many of these, [name_m]Nolan[/name_m], [name_m]Hayes[/name_m], [name_m]Malcom[/name_m] :)…it’s a great list!

Also, just thinking of a dark horse suggestion…Howard nn [name_m]Ward[/name_m]? You might have already considered it (or hate it!), but [name_m]Ward[/name_m] fits the brevity of [name_m]Nash[/name_m] and [name_m]Mac[/name_m] while keeping the family name as a first name.
