Elias or Emmett for baby boy

General Name Discussion
1

I’m trying to decide between [name_u]Elias[/name_u] or [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] for my son. His middle name will be [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] (an important family name to my father, my husband and I are on the fence) or [name_m]Dawson[/name_m]. And our surname begins with a C and is 2 syllables. Please help!

P.S. We’re also open to other D middle names :slight_smile: Thanks!!

I like [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] or [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m]. I do like [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] but I don’t think it flows as nicely with [name_f]Dawn[/name_f]\[name_m]Dawson[/name_m], and I prefer [name_u]Elias[/name_u] overall anyway. [name_f]My[/name_f] vote goes for [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f]!

I think both [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] and [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m] are great! I prefer [name_u]Elias[/name_u] to [name_u]Emmett[/name_u].

[name_u]Dagny[/name_u] and [name_m]Dion[/name_m] have similar meanings to [name_f]Dawn[/name_f].
I like [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m] and [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] best.

5

My favorite is [name_u]Elias[/name_u].

6

I love [name_u]Elias[/name_u], you rarely hear that name often. You could also use the name [name_m]Ilias[/name_m] if you like that better.

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

I kind of prefer [name_u]Elias[/name_u]. It’s such a beautiful name. It’s way more interesting than [name_m]Elijah[/name_m], but [name_u]Eli[/name_u] on its own or a nn is still very popular. [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] flows better, even though [name_m]Dawson[/name_m] is better in general. I like [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]David[/name_m] or [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m] a lot.

[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] is still a nice handsome name. [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m] sounds great.

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps. :slight_smile:

Love [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f]! [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m] would be my preferred [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] combo.

9

I would go with [name_u]Elias[/name_u] if you settle on [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] as the mn. [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] seems a bit feminine next to [name_f]Dawn[/name_f]. [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m] would also be great though!

10

Definitely [name_u]Elias[/name_u]. It’s a very handsome name!

11

I like [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m].

12

Elias [name_m]Dawson[/name_m] is lovely! The rhythm seems like it will work well with your last name too.

13

I prefer [name_u]Emmett[/name_u]! though I think that [name_u]Elias[/name_u] goes better with [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] or [name_m]Dawson[/name_m].

Other middles:
[name_m]Daniel[/name_m]
[name_u]Douglas[/name_u]

14

Love [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m]

15

Emmett [name_m]Dawson[/name_m] sounds lovely

16

I really like [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] or [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m].

17

Elias gets my vote, I slightly prefer [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Dawson[/name_m] over [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] though I think [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] will probably work better with your surname.

Suggestions: [name_m]Darwin[/name_m], [name_m]Dominic[/name_m], [name_m]Dimitri[/name_m], [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] and [name_u]Dune[/name_u]

18

I really like both names! However, [name_u]Emmett[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] caught my attention. It sounds charming and magical.

Elias all the way!! [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_f]Dawn[/name_f] is so lovely.
