We are set on [name_m]Ethan[/name_m], but our middle is down to two choices:
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m] or [name_m]Hector[/name_m]
We love the sound of [name_m]Alexander[/name_m], but [name_m]Hector[/name_m] is my father’s name. Which do you like better?
Thanks.
Honoring is important to me so I would go with [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_m]Hector[/name_m].
[name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_m]Hector[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]?
If you prefer the simplicity of one I think either work well. Though I do prefer the sound of [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] slightly more I think it’s lovely to honour family members.
Oh, [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_m]Hector[/name_m], please!
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m] is a fine name, but wildly overused, and [name_m]Hector[/name_m] is charming!

[name_m]Hector[/name_m]!!!..
Yes, I agree. If you love [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] but really want to honor family, go for both!
I’m a huge fan of family names. [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_m]Hector[/name_m]!!
I feel that you would like to name your son after your father but you don’t care for the name [name_m]Hector[/name_m] as compared to [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]. We’ve been there too. I think it would be really nice to use an honour name so have you thought of using your father’s surname if it’s usable, which may have been your maiden name as well? Or what about his middle name? Or his father’s name? [name_m]Just[/name_m] some suggestions that I wish we had thought of!
I love [name_m]Ethan[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]. 
I know [name_m]Hector[/name_m] is a family name, but in the end you should go with the name you like most.
