My husband and I are trying to come up with a first name for [name]Paul[/name]. [name]Paul[/name] is a family name and will definitely be the middle name. A few ideas that we have come up with are [name]Emmerson[/name], [name]Cooper[/name], and [name]Levi[/name], but we havent really loved any of those choices. We also really like [name]Finn[/name] but as hard as we try, we just can’t make [name]Finn[/name] [name]Paul[/name] sound good together. Any other suggestions?
[name]Carson[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Liam[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Nolan[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Declan[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Reilly[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Brody[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Ryan[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Hudson[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Gavin[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Landon[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Julian[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Sebastian[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
You’re right, pairing two monosyllabic names together just doesn’t work. It sounds choppy and abrupt.
It will depend a bit on what your last name is like (how many syllables, and what they starting and ending sounds are), but either a 2 or 3+ syllable name could work.
If you really like [name]Finn[/name], then you should definitely consider [name]Finlay[/name] (the Irish original). [name]Finlay[/name] [name]Paul[/name] is a handsome name with good flow.
I would strike [name]Cooper[/name] as I don’t care for the repetitive P. [name]Emerson[/name] I would spell with 1 L. [name]Levi[/name] [name]Paul[/name] is also a bit abrupt-- even though [name]Levi[/name] has 2 syllables, it’s so short that is still sounds a little choppy.
Here are some thoughts; some are a bit more daring than others.

Why not use [name]Paul[/name] as a first name? Great way to honor family by going whole hog and using it that way.
Almost anything sounds great with [name]Paul[/name] in the middle, as long as it has more than one syllable.
