What do you think of the flow of [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m]?  
All our kids have honor middle names. This is our last, and I told my husband he was getting named after my dad, no matter what. But now…I’m struggling to do that in a way I actually like the sound of. 😂  
[name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] is the only name my husband and I have even slightly agreed on so far. [name\_f]My[/name\_f] dad’s name is [name\_m]Brian[/name\_m] [name\_m]Jeffrey[/name\_m]. Our other kids are [name\_u]Oliver[/name\_u] [name\_m]Kenneth[/name\_m], [name\_u]August[/name\_u] [name\_u]Benjamin[/name\_u], and [name\_f]Eliza[/name\_f] [name\_u]June[/name\_u].

It goes well with your other kids names, but I don’t like [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m]. [name\_u]Harley[/name\_u] instead? [name\_u]Harley[/name\_u] [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m] sounds good!

Harvey [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m] sounds good! You may prefer [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Brian[/name\_m] or [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Bryant[/name\_m] instead?

I think a sibset of [name\_u]Oliver[/name\_u], [name\_u]August[/name\_u], [name\_f]Eliza[/name\_f] & [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] is great 🙂

We like [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m]. Not looking for opinions on [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] itself. Only on flow + fit with middle name and other kids names.

</div>

To me, [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] doesn’t seem to fit with [name\_u]Oliver[/name\_u], [name\_u]August[/name\_u], and [name\_f]Eliza[/name\_f]. [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m] is an okay flow, but not particularly ideal. I like it switched a lot more: [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m] [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m]. [name\_u]Oliver[/name\_u], [name\_u]August[/name\_u], [name\_f]Eliza[/name\_f] and [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m] sound great together!

I think [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m] sounds fine! [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Brian[/name\_m] sounds really nice too, if you like that.

I think [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m] or [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Brian[/name\_m] would both work well. Another option is [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_u]Briar[/name\_u].

Thanks! Some days I feel like it fits right in, other days I feel like it’s so different. 🙈🤣 Naming multiple children is HARD! 😬

Surname is Penner. Easy to spell, easy to pronounce, and I feel like it fits with more names with the exception of the ‘er’ endings.

I prefer [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Brian[/name\_m] - But if I had to chose between [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m] and [name\_m]Harvey[/name\_m] [name\_m]Jeffrey[/name\_m], I’d pick [name\_m]Jefferson[/name\_m]
