[name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] is adorable!

Never liked caspian because it sounds too “s”y and reminds me of pirates.

Really liking [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] “[name_u]Theo[/name_u]” with [name_f]May[/name_f]! [name_u]James[/name_u] is one of my favorite boy names, but I don’t like that it shares the same primary vowel sound with [name_f]May[/name_f]—could get confusing when calling for one of them at a distance.

[name_m]Peter[/name_m] [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] I also like in theory, but it’s a bit too Chronicles of [name_f]Narnia[/name_f] as a combo.

I picked [name_m]Peter[/name_m]. [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_f]May[/name_f] are a bit too matchy [name_f]IMO[/name_f] - [name_u]James[/name_u] contains all of [name_f]May[/name_f]'s sounds, which wouldn’t be an issue except [name_u]James[/name_u] is also one syllable. I also eliminated [name_m]Julien[/name_m] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] because they drown out [name_f]May[/name_f] because of their comparative length. [name_m]Peter[/name_m] is simple, matches well but not too much, and if you have more kids in the future doesn’t lock you into a one-syllable theme if that’s how you choose to approach sibsets.

[name_m]Peter[/name_m] has the same sweet and simple vibe as [name_f]May[/name_f].

I like [name_m]Peter[/name_m] with [name_f]May[/name_f]! [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], to me, makes [name_f]May[/name_f] storybook cute rather than the confident, elegant name it is. I really like [name_m]Julian[/name_m] - I wouldn’t naturally pair it with [name_f]May[/name_f], but it’s my second pick! [name_u]James[/name_u] is a great name but as others have said, too similar to [name_f]May[/name_f].

I really like [name_m]Peter[/name_m] with [name_f]May[/name_f]. Both names share an elegant simplicity.

[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] “[name_u]Theo[/name_u]” goes wonderfully with [name_f]May[/name_f], and [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] in the middle spot is stunning. My second pick would be [name_m]Peter[/name_m].

[name_f]May[/name_f] [name_f]Aurora[/name_f] and [name_m]Peter[/name_m] [name_m]Caspian[/name_m]!

My second choice would be [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], but [name_m]Peter[/name_m] wins by miles here for me.

I love [name_m]Caspian[/name_m], and think [name_u]Theo[/name_u] goes beautifully with [name_f]May[/name_f] so, [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Caspian[/name_m] ‘[name_u]Theo[/name_u]’ got my vote.
