Is Abraham and Gabriel too close?

My SO is named [name_m]Abraham[/name_m], baby would be [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u]. [name_m]Abe[/name_m] & [name_m]Gabe[/name_m]!! I don’t have much time left and we can’t decide on a name. My SO wants him to be named after him but I can’t seem to agree on that either :frowning: This is so stressful!!

I love [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] and I think the [name_m]Abe[/name_m] and [name_m]Gabe[/name_m] connection is sweet. :blush:

If you don’t call him [name_m]Gabe[/name_m], I think it’d be fine.

I think it’s fine :slight_smile:

Your dad wants him to be named after him or your husband wants him to be named after your dad? If it’s the first thing you should ask your husband how he feels about that. Your dad shouldn’t be calling the shots and what your name your child. Obviously if you want to do that then go for it. I think both teams are cute and [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] [name_m]Gabe[/name_m] would be a cute modern nod to the name [name_m]Abe[/name_m].

Im guessing Dad is [name_u]Baby[/name_u]’s dad. What about [name_m]Abraham[/name_m] nn [name_m]Bram[/name_m]? Or [name_m]Abraham[/name_m] [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] nn [name_m]Graham[/name_m]? I do think [name_m]Abe[/name_m] and [name_m]Gabe[/name_m] could be a little confusing but not too bad if thats what you both like🙂

Sorry I meant the baby’s dad, not mine lol. Sorry about that!

If you don’t want an [name_m]Abraham[/name_m] [name_m]Jr[/name_m], maybe [name_m]Abe[/name_m] and [name_m]Gabe[/name_m] is actually a good compromise?

Unless you nickname him [name_m]Gabe[/name_m], it’s fine.

Abraham and [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] are great together.
Their nn’s are a bit close though, might get u tongue tied imo.

If they were brothers, then yes. But as dad and son I think it’s so cute!
