Hello! We’ve recently found out we’re having our fourth boy. I would love to use my maiden name, [name_m]Ross[/name_m], as a middle name, but I can’t find a first name I like to go with it. Our other sons are [name_m]Judah[/name_m] [name_m]Edward[/name_m], [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] [name_u]Grayson[/name_u], and [name_m]David[/name_m] Hatton (goes by [name_m]Davy[/name_m]). Last name is also one syllable, so everything sounds not quite right! Possible other middle names are [name_u]Scott[/name_u] and [name_m]Gregory[/name_m] (for my dad).

Adam, [name_m]Isaac[/name_m], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], [name_u]Benjamin[/name_u], [name_u]Micah[/name_u], [name_u]Michael[/name_u]. [name_m]Ross[/name_m] is an excellent middle name.
How about:
Canaan [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
[name_m]Alastair[/name_m] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]

[name_u]Callum[/name_u] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
[name_m]Harvey[/name_m] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
[name_m]Jacob[/name_m] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
Off the bat I would say I’d avoid something biblical as that would make [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] the odd man out. Names ending in N and two-syllables keep coming to mind. I’ll add more if inthink of some but off the bat…
[name_m]Edwin[/name_m]/ [name_m]Edmund[/name_m]
[name_u]Aiden[/name_u]
[name_m]Aaron[/name_m]

[name_m]Dawson[/name_m]
[name_u]Hayden[/name_u]
[name_u]Jaden[/name_u]
[name_u]Keegan[/name_u]
ETA: an advanced NB search with these two requirements will draw up a mess load more suggestions then I could ever list on here!
[name_m]Judah[/name_m], [name_u]Ellis[/name_u], [name_m]David[/name_m], and …
_______ [name_m]Ross[/name_m]:
- [name_u]Michael[/name_u] ([name_m]Mike[/name_m], [name_m]Mikey[/name_m])
- [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] ([name_m]Nate[/name_m])
- Chaistopher ([name_u]Chris[/name_u])
- [name_m]Raymond[/name_m] ([name_u]Ray[/name_u])
- [name_m]Redmond[/name_m] ([name_u]Red[/name_u])
- [name_m]Desmond[/name_m] ([name_m]Dez[/name_m])
I think the longer names go nicely with Ross as well as a 1 syllable LN
I really like [name_m]Ross[/name_m] as a first name!

I would love to see you use your maiden name in the middle. So meaningful! I wouldn’t be concerned about both it and your last name being one syllable as we seldom say all three names together but I would choose a two-syllable first name.

Hi there.
Judah, [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] & [name_m]David[/name_m] are all great names. I feel like your style is masculine & strong but sweet & gentle at the same time. I love those kind of boy names.
Sorry for any repeats, but how about…

We thought we had [name_u]Benjamin[/name_u] settled on, but my sister in law recently mentioned they picked it out for their son. [name_m]John[/name_m] is also a favorite of mine, but called by my other sister in law:)

Asher came to mind when looking at your boy’s names almost immediately. [name_m]Judah[/name_m] means praised, [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] mean benevolent, and [name_m]David[/name_m] means beloved, so all three names have positive meanings about personality. [name_u]Asher[/name_u] means happy and is within the top 500, which your sons are all safely in. [name_u]Asher[/name_u] [name_m]Ross[/name_m] kinda blends into each other, so I would go with [name_u]Asher[/name_u] [name_m]Gregory[/name_m] or [name_u]Asher[/name_u] [name_u]Scott[/name_u]. [name_m]Marshall[/name_m], [name_u]Milo[/name_u], [name_u]Barrett[/name_u], [name_m]Garrett[/name_m], and [name_m]Felix[/name_m] also came to mind. [name_f]My[/name_f] personal favorite is [name_u]Asher[/name_u] [name_m]Gregory[/name_m].

We love [name_u]Asher[/name_u] too, and [name_m]Judah[/name_m] was almost [name_u]Asher[/name_u]! But we also have -sh in our last name and it seems like too much?

I think that [name_u]Asher[/name_u] Lastname-with-sh-sound usually works as long as it isn’t the last syllable.
The -sh is at the end.

Congratulations on your fourth boy!
I like your boys’ names, they’re masculine and sweet at the same time, like @MichelleM pointed out. I like the idea of using your maiden name as a middle - [name_m]Ross[/name_m] is a great middle.
Here are some suggestions:
Edmund [name_m]Ross[/name_m] - it has already been suggested, I just think it sounds really good
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m] [name_m]Ross[/name_m] - it makes me smile, such a sweet name
[name_m]Jonathan[/name_m] [name_m]Ross[/name_m] - feels classy
[name_m]Simon[/name_m] [name_m]Ross[/name_m] - good flow
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]
[name_u]Eden[/name_u] [name_m]Ross[/name_m]

Edmund is one we’ve never talked about, but I kind of like it! [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] has been on the table for every boy:) And I love [name_u]Eden[/name_u], but it was our favorite girl name this time, so I have a hard time thinking about it for a boy.
I totally understand for [name_u]Eden[/name_u], it’s such a pretty name for a girl too. [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] and [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] are my favorites one with [name_m]Ross[/name_m] as a middle. I loved [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] for a long time too. I met a 4 yo boy with this name a few years ago. He was sweet, calm and always smiling. He loved nature and he was really nice to his little sister.
