Boy Names

[name]Baby[/name] boy due any day now and we are still struggling and need advice.

We have a three syllable hard to pronounce last name. We like classic names ( not too trendy). Whet would you pick?

[name]Russell[/name]
[name]Paul[/name]
[name]Mitchell[/name]
[name]Alec[/name] or [name]Alex[/name]
[name]Luke[/name] or [name]Lucas[/name]
[name]David[/name]
[name]Keith[/name]
[name]Benjamin[/name]

Nothing seems quite right. For what it’s worth, his big sister is very sports oriented, loud and outgoing. Maybe he’ll be similar.

Thanks!!!

I like [name]Benjamin[/name] best. While it’s on the long side, it’s still classic enough to endure and simple enough to work with a long, complicated LN. Besides, he can always shorten it to [name]Ben[/name], which works easily with a complicated surname. I think [name]Benjamin[/name] [name]Russell[/name] would be a great combo, actually, and I can see a [name]Benjamin[/name] [name]Russell[/name] both looking up to his sister, sort of following in her footsteps, but also being his own person, or maybe not being like her at all. It has that versatility to it, which is what I love.

The others are great, too, I just really love [name]Benjamin[/name], and [name]Benjamin[/name] [name]Russell[/name] is fabulous.

Good luck!

You’ve got lots of great choices! My favorites on your list are [name]Mitchell[/name] & [name]Benjamin[/name]. I love the suggestion of [name]Benjamin[/name] [name]Russell[/name].

I would pick [name]Benjamin[/name], with [name]Luke[/name] in second place. [name]Love[/name] the nn [name]Ben[/name]. [name]Benjamin[/name] is both adorable and presidential, and very friendly sounding. [name]Luke[/name] has a sleek, simple sound, and it means light, right? Feels spiritual but not heavy.
[name]Paul[/name], [name]Mitchell[/name], and [name]Russell[/name] are ok in my opinion.
The others I don’t care for.

[name]Benjamin[/name] [name]Russell[/name] is an AWESOME suggestion. (Now I can’t get it out of my head and I don’t really fall in love with combos often).
[name]Lucas[/name] [name]Mitchell[/name] would also be nice.

I really also like [name]Alec[/name] from your original list. I could never use it (my name is [name]Alexandra[/name] and it’s just too close) but I think it’s a great form of [name]Alexander[/name] and the -c ending gives it a dignified classic feel and yet has a little spunk and modernity to it.

12

Yep – [name]Benjamin[/name] or [name]Luke[/name]. Maybe [name]Luke[/name] just based on your last name being longer?

I think [name]David[/name] and [name]Benjamin[/name] are the easiest names to say. I really like [name]Benjamin[/name]. Always thought [name]Benji[/name] was an adorable nickname.
