What do you think of the name [name]Ives[/name]?

What middle name would you pair with it? I’m having trouble finding something that flows with that pesky s on the end!

I prefer [name]Yves[/name] to [name]Ives[/name]. I’m already hearing ‘When I was going to St [name]Ives[/name]…’ in my head :wink:

It’s a town near where I live so I’m having trouble seeing it as a name :confused: As you talk of the ‘s’ at the end, I’m guessing you’re pronouncing it proper. But if you are wanting to say it the French way, I’d go with [name]Yves[/name].

As for middles, I’d steer clear of any ‘S’ names else it’ll run together- [name]Ives[/name] [name]Samuel[/name], [name]Ives[/name] [name]Simon[/name] etc sound like I’ve [name]Samuel[/name] & I’ve [name]Simon[/name] :stuck_out_tongue: Other than that, most names sound good:

[name]Ives[/name] [name]Benjamin[/name]
[name]Ives[/name] [name]William[/name]
[name]Ives[/name] [name]Leonardo[/name]
[name]Ives[/name] [name]Zachary[/name]
[name]Ives[/name] [name]Julian[/name]
[name]Ives[/name] [name]Edmund[/name]
[name]Ives[/name] [name]Daniel[/name]
etc

[name_m]Ignatius[/name_m] or Athanasius are perfect with [name_m]Ives[/name_m] : ) Or maybe that’s only me…
