[name_m]Hi[/name_m]! So I’ve been a long time lurker here, but I’ve always been obsessed with names. Anyway I’m currently 7 weeks pregnant and have had names picked out for about a year or so. I just can’t decide on a middle name or which ones I like best.
If it’s a girl we are for sure using [name_f]Indi[/name_f], we just don’t know what a good middle name would be. So far I like
[name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] and [name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_u]James[/name_u] but my husband doesn’t really like those middles, and it doesn’t sound quite perfect to me.
The hard part are the boy names. We’ve always liked the name [name_m]Otto[/name_m]. If we plan on using [name_m]Otto[/name_m] then we want to go with [name_m]Otto[/name_m] [name_m]Wayne[/name_m] to honor both his dad and my grandpa.
Lately though I’ve been feeling the name [name_m]Oakes[/name_m] but I can’t think of a good middle name for [name_m]Oakes[/name_m] at all! I like the name but I feel like there’s something missing with it, and that could be because I can’t find a perfect middle for it. Our last name starts with a T so I don’t know if the S on [name_m]Oakes[/name_m] with the immediate T sounds weird.
Anyway, I’d love to hear some feedback on the middles for [name_f]Indi[/name_f] and [name_m]Oakes[/name_m] and whether or not you like [name_m]Oakes[/name_m] or [name_m]Otto[/name_m] better. Thanks!
I like [name_m]Otto[/name_m] much better than [name_m]Oakes[/name_m]. I suggest if you want to call him [name_m]Oakes[/name_m], use [name_m]Oakes[/name_m] as a middle name or make [name_u]Oakley[/name_u] his first name.
[name_f]Indi[/name_f] middles: [name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_u]Bay[/name_u] . [name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] . [name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] (stylistically I prefer [name_f]Indy[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] or [name_f]Indie[/name_f] [name_f]Ruth[/name_f]) . [name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_u]Jae[/name_u] . [name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_u]Shay[/name_u] / [name_f]Indie[/name_f] [name_u]Shea[/name_u] / [name_f]Indy[/name_f] [name_u]Shea[/name_u] .
You may also want to consider [name_f]Indira[/name_f] (inn-DEAR-a) nn [name_f]Indi[/name_f]. [name_f]Indira[/name_f] Jamisen would be spunky in the middle and unexpected with that gorgeous [name_f]Indira[/name_f].
[name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_u]Lou[/name_u], [name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f], [name_f]Indi[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f] or [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_f]Lark[/name_f].
I love the suggestions of [name_f]Indira[/name_f] nn [name_f]Indi[/name_f] and [name_u]Oakley[/name_u] nn [name_m]Oakes[/name_m] (they would make great siblings too one day! [name_u]Oakley[/name_u] [name_m]Wayne[/name_m] works great. I like [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] and [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_u]James[/name_u] better than those two with [name_f]Indi[/name_f] as well. I also like [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_u]Shea[/name_u], [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u], [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_f]Claire[/name_f], [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_f]Neve[/name_f], [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_u]Vale[/name_u], [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_f]Camille[/name_f], [name_f]Indira[/name_f] [name_u]Blake[/name_u].
