[name_m]Hi[/name_m],
We are expecting a baby in a couple month (gender unknown) and are leaning towards using [name_m]Eben[/name_m] as the first name if it’s a boy. We are completely stuck on middle names though! Our top two boy names are [name_m]Eben[/name_m] and [name_m]Ezra[/name_m], so one option is [name_m]Eben[/name_m] [name_m]Ezra[/name_m], but I’m not sure how I feel about it. We don’t want to use any honor names and also want to avoid any middle names that start with J. Also want to avoid anything too unusual in the middle, since the first name is pretty uncommon. Some thoughts I had were [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] or [name_m]Zachary[/name_m], but hubby is not keen on either. [name_u]Seth[/name_u] and [name_m]Silas[/name_m] are also both out. Least name is long (3 syllables), starts with H, and sounds like Hirshburger. Would really appreciate your suggestions on middle names for [name_m]Eben[/name_m] (and [name_m]Ezra[/name_m], in case we go that route).
Thanks a ton!

Thank you! I like a lot of these suggestions. I particularly like [name_m]Matthew[/name_m], [name_u]Bradley[/name_u] and [name_m]Heath[/name_m] as possible middle names. (Although I think I’ve suggested [name_m]Heath[/name_m] in the past and my husband vetoed it). Please let me know if you think of additional good combinations! Also, what are your thoughts on [name_m]Eben[/name_m] [name_m]Ezra[/name_m]? Too much?
Also, I was wondering if you could help us with our girl name as well. We are currently planning on using [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] as a first name, but again, have no middle name. The current front runners are [name_f]Alice[/name_f] and [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], and possibly [name_f]Cora[/name_f], [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] or [name_f]Rebekah[/name_f] (as you can see, we are all over the place). I always get concerned about possible unpleasant initial combinations, so for various reasons we are avoiding the following letters for the middle name: e, f, I, j, n, o, s, r, u, y.
Would love to hear your thoughts!!
I love [name_m]Eben[/name_m]!
