Which one do you prefer? Our last name is [name_m]Leary[/name_m]. I love the alliteration of [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] [name_m]Leary[/name_m], but it is quite a bit more popular than [name_u]Brooks[/name_u]. I love the simplicity of [name_u]Brooks[/name_u]!
I like both but I prefer [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] with your surname

I prefer [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] as a first name too! [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have a middle name? [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] [name_u]Brooks[/name_u] would be very cool and modern.

I like both for very different reasons ! So you can’t go wrong.
Brooks feels fresh , trendy and has nature ties.
Lincoln is tied in history , feels sturdy historical and smart.
I personally only know 1 of each . [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] would be in his early 30s and [name_u]Brooks[/name_u] about 6. I really love alliteration so I would sway to [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] slightly . I do love the suggestion of [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] [name_u]Brooks[/name_u] [name_m]Leary[/name_m] though !!

[name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] is very popular.
I prefer [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] [name_m]Leary[/name_m] as I adore names with alliteration and [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] [name_m]Leary[/name_m] sounds rather lyrical. It may just be my [name_u]New[/name_u] Zealand accent, but when I say “[name_u]Brooks[/name_u] [name_m]Leary[/name_m]” out loud, all I’m hearing is “[name_u]Brook[/name_u] Sleary” even when I slowly say the two names together.
Brooks [name_m]Leary[/name_m] is so cool!
Lincoln [name_m]Leary[/name_m] here! [name_u]Love[/name_u] it! (Also love [name_u]Lincoln[/name_u] [name_u]Brooks[/name_u] [name_m]Leary[/name_m])
