My husband and I are having SUCH trouble coming up with a boy’s name we both love! We’re both into older names that sound masculine, but our ideas are rarely on the same page. I’m getting a little worried that we won’t be able to come up with the perfect name. For example, I’m drawn to names like “[name]Emmett[/name]” while he keeps suggesting names like “[name]Frank[/name].” Any new ideas? We’re at a total loss. Our last name is [name]Jackson[/name]…so nothing presidential please

My husband and I talked about it tonight, and he says he’s come back to a name I mentioned a while ago: [name]Ike[/name]. It’s always been a favorite of mine because it’s the name of one of our dear friends. It’s also pretty manly and has that old fashioned feel to it. He’s talked about [name]Ike[/name] [name]Walter[/name] (his grandpa’s name) but I don’t know if I’m sold on the middle. Any other middle name suggestions for an [name]Ike[/name]?

I really like [name]Ike[/name] [name]Walter[/name]! I can’t quite decide if I think that [name]Ike[/name] is too nicknamey on its own or not. However, I think that honoring trumps everything else, so if you’re using [name]Ike[/name] to honor an [name]Ike[/name] then I’m not as worried about it seeming insubstantial or nicknamey. I agree with you that it has a great old fashioned feel and I think it goes perfectly with [name]Vera[/name] [name]Penelope[/name].
I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Ike[/name]! Goes great with [name]Vera[/name] too!
[name]Ike[/name] is fine, but I absolutely [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Walter[/name]!! [name]Ike[/name] [name]Walter[/name] sounds great!
