[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Grey[/name_u]

I love all three names.

What about [name_m]Holt[/name_m] (surname-y) or [name_m]Hart[/name_m] (meaning stag) as a blend between [name_m]Harp[/name_m] and [name_m]Colt[/name_m] without the negative associations?

Other similar names that evoke color, instruments or horses: [name_u]Blue[/name_u], [name_u]Roan[/name_u], [name_u]Teal[/name_u], [name_u]Green[/name_u], [name_u]Lyre[/name_u] (?), [name_u]Dean[/name_u], [name_u]Reed[/name_u], Horn, [name_m]Dart[/name_m], [name_u]Bay[/name_u], [name_u]Whit[/name_u], Ney (a Persian flute that rhymes with [name_u]Grey[/name_u]!), [name_u]Lute[/name_u], Ruan (Chinese guitar)

[name_f]My[/name_f] favorite is [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Grey[/name_u]. I think it’s very handsome, but if you don’t feel a connection to [name_u]Grey[/name_u] then I guess it would feel like a “filler”. I also voted ‘other’ to list some ideas… sticking with the one syllable theme:

[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Ash[/name_u]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Birch[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Cole[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Flint[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Grant[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Hank[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Hayes[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Nash[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Quinn[/name_u]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Rhys[/name_u]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Wolf[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Zane[/name_m]
[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Zev[/name_m]

I think that [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Grey[/name_u] sounds the best, but I voted for [name_m]Harp[/name_m] after reading your post. I think it’s a great name and not too feminine. Plus, you love it, which is most important, esp with a second middle name that may not be heard often.

[name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]Grey[/name_u] is an awesome name! And I love the names [name_u]Elias[/name_u] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] :slight_smile:

I like [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Harp[/name_m]. I like the quirky, artsy vibe of [name_m]Harp[/name_m] after the more serious, brainy [name_u]Elias[/name_u] and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]. I like the suggestion of [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Hart[/name_m] if you can’t get behind [name_m]Harp[/name_m].
