We are settled on the name [name]Christopher[/name]. 90% certain it will be for the first name, but willing to consider options that put it in the middle. It does have to be [name]Christopher[/name]–no spelling changes or shortening of it. We’re trying to find a name we both like to go with it and aren’t having much luck.
Of importance to us: it must be a [name]Christian[/name] name which can include Biblical names, saints’ names, and derivative names from both (like [name]Greg[/name] from [name]Gregory[/name]–though we don’t like [name]Greg[/name], but you get the idea). If it is a saint name, we’d prefer the saint be from around the year 1000 or before. Almost any language would be fine. The only ones we consistently don’t gravitate towards that I can think of are Hawaiian or Scandinavian names.
I like [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Myron[/name] and [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Moses[/name]. My husband doesn’t know what he likes but knows what he doesn’t like and those names are included! :lol: [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Matthew[/name] seems constant and reliable, but it doesn’t really grab us. We’d prefer something regal and strong. (The repeated M names are just a coincidence.)
I’d love a list of suggestions!

Any you like?
YAY YAY YAY!! Thank you!!
The below are the ones I like the most from your great list, though none of them just strike that feeling I can’t put into words of all the hopes, dreams, expectations, etc we have for him. lol
[name]Christopher[/name] [name]Adrian[/name]
[name]Christopher[/name] [name]Elias[/name]
[name]Christopher[/name] [name]David[/name]
[name]Christopher[/name] [name]Eli[/name]
[name]Christopher[/name] [name]Jared[/name]
[name]Christopher[/name] [name]Nathan[/name]
I’m not overly fond of the name [name]Nathan[/name] on its own, but in that list I think it flows best and it’s my fave there. Some other names we like are [name]Thomas[/name] [name]Alexander[/name], [name]Gregory[/name] [name]Andrew[/name], and [name]Katherine[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name] if it helps put a finger on that feeling I can’t describe. I’d be very grateful for some more suggestions!
You’re welcome My favourite from the list is [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Elias[/name] but I understand that if none of them feel quite right you need to keep looking. Some more suggestions:
[name]Christopher[/name] [name]James[/name]

[name]Christopher[/name] [name]Edmund[/name]
[name]Christopher[/name] [name]Walter[/name]
[name]How[/name] about any of those?
Oooh. I like [name]Edward[/name], [name]Edmund[/name], and [name]Owen[/name] with it. My husband might like [name]Edward[/name]. I’ll ask him!
FUNNY thing! I just opened a new page to look up the name [name]Edward[/name]'s meaning and history. I went to the random saint page to then jump from there to the alphabetical list, and of the thousands of choices, it pulled up St. [name]Edward[/name]!
Haha good. It might be a sign
I was totally going to suggest [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Moses[/name]! I really like that one. I don’t think there are any more I can suggest that haven’t been said without getting way out there.
[name]Hi[/name]!
My husbands favorite name is [name]Christopher[/name] and he’s always wanted to name his son [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Thomas[/name] (after himself). Because the name is used many times on both sides of our family, I refuse to consider it, even though I think it has a great ring.
So… I read that you were thinking [name]Thomas[/name], and I totally had to post my vote.
My vote: [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Thomas[/name]
Good luck! And great choice on the first name… I’m jealous you get to use it.

I am confidant in saying that you have lovely taste, Triceratops! :lol:
[name]Gabriella[/name]: [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Thomas[/name] is wonderful. We need to keep [name]Thomas[/name] as a first name, though, and [name]Thomas[/name] [name]Christopher[/name] just doesn’t have the same ring to it.
[name]How[/name] about:
[name]Christopher[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
G
Thanks! I actually have [name]Jonathan[/name] [name]Moses[/name] on my list. I really like [name]Christopher[/name], but I’m not big on [name]Chris[/name] or [name]Topher[/name] as a nickname. I really like [name]Kit[/name], but I can’t use it since my daughter’s nickname is [name]Kitty[/name], so unfortunately [name]Christopher[/name]/[name]Kit[/name] is out.
[name]Ah[/name]! We don’t use nicknames, but I can see how that would be problematic. I like [name]Jonathan[/name] [name]Moses[/name]. 
I haven’t had a chance to ask my husband about [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Edward[/name] yet. Any other suggestions to take to him?
