I would like my first son to honour my Dad’s name, as either a first or middle name. However, [name]Gary[/name] does not fit well with names I like.
Has anyone got any ideas on how to still honour [name]Gary[/name] but without using it straight? I’m not too taken on [name]Gareth[/name] though 
What about [name]Garrett[/name]? I like it better than [name]Gareth[/name].
hmmm some other ideas:
Names related to [name]Gary[/name]-
[name]Gerard[/name]
[name]Kai[/name]
[name]Cai[/name]
Caj
[name]Jarrett[/name]
[name]Gerold[/name]
Names similar to [name]Gary[/name]-
[name]Gray[/name]
[name]Graham[/name]
[name]Grady[/name]
Names with a similar meaning-
[name]Corin[/name]
[name]Darrow[/name]
[name]Barry[/name]
[name]Berenger[/name]
[name]Do[/name] any of these match the style you’re looking for? Personally my favorite from this list is [name]Gray[/name], has obvious ties to [name]Gary[/name] but still remains distinct.
[name]Gray[/name] has to be my favourite so far from the list, I’d use it as a MN.
Some of the names I like:
[name]Harvey[/name]
[name]Henry[/name]
[name]Arthur[/name]
[name]Alexander[/name]
[name]Lewis[/name]
[name]William[/name]
[name]George[/name]
[name]James[/name] (MN)
Would a rhyming name count? [name]Harry[/name], [name]Terry[/name], [name]Larry[/name], [name]Jerry[/name], [name]Kerry[/name]? [name]Harry[/name] is stylish, and I secretly think [name]Jerry[/name] is kinda cute too. And there are other G names that could be considered somewhat related: [name]Gregory[/name]? [name]Graham[/name]?
My step-father is [name]Graham[/name], so that’s a no-go
His son is [name]Harry[/name], so also a no-go unfortunately
The more I think about [name]Gray[/name] the more I like it =]
Have you thought of [name]Garrison[/name] or [name]Garrett[/name]?
my FIL is named gary and we are using gray as a middle name to honor him.
[name]Garrett[/name] sounds interesting.
But the more I sit here the more I like [name]Gray[/name]. I’ve never met anyone with the name [name]Gray[/name] before so it will be nice for it to be different
[name]Harvey[/name] [name]Gray[/name]
[name]Samuel[/name] [name]Gray[/name]
[name]Alexander[/name] [name]Gray[/name]
[name]Lewis[/name] [name]Gray[/name]
Looking at these, and considering [name]Gray[/name], I may even be up for a change in general names I like 
Berries are great at this! I would never have even looked at it before and now I’m getting quite fond of it
Has anyone honoured one set of grandparents before? Has this ever caused a problem with the other set?
