[name_f][/name_f]

I once again see this common trend: likely honor middle names (Oliver, [name_m]Mark[/name_m], [name_m]Michael[/name_m], [name_m]James[/name_m], [name_m]Lewis[/name_m], [name_m]Alan[/name_m] and Robert). I particularly love [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] [name_m]Oliver[/name_m], [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m] [name_m]James[/name_m], [name_m]Samson[/name_m] [name_m]Michael[/name_m], [name_m]Luke[/name_m] [name_m]Michael[/name_m], [name_f]Riley[/name_f] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] and [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] [name_m]Carter[/name_m]. [name_m]Justin[/name_m] [name_m]Pierce[/name_m], [name_m]Summit[/name_m] [name_m]West[/name_m], [name_m]Archer[/name_m] [name_m]Lewis[/name_m] and [name_m]Crew[/name_m] [name_m]Jackson[/name_m] aren’t really my style.

GIRLS:
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Elsie[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] + [name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Melanie[/name_f] [name_f]Jo[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Hadley[/name_f] [name_f]Sue[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Hosanna[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Norah[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_m]Ashley[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Amethyst[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Annie[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Miller[/name_m] [name_f]Jean[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Emersyn[/name_f] [name_f]Grace[/name_f]
[name_f][/name_f][name_f]Riley[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] (twin to [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] Carter)

[name_f][/name_f]

Lots of single syllable middle names, like usual: [name_f]Kate[/name_f], [name_f]Jo[/name_f], [name_f]Sue[/name_f], [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Mae[/name_f], [name_f]Jean[/name_f] and [name_f]Grace[/name_f]. I am not a huge fan of twins sharing a middle name, but to each their own. There aren’t any girl names that really stand out to me this go around and there weren’t that many girls born either! [name_f]My[/name_f] favorite is [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_m]Ashley[/name_m] but my least favorite has to be [name_f]Hosanna[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] or [name_f]Amethyst[/name_f].

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

[name_f][/name_f]

Here are my thoughts on the lists:

[name_f][/name_f]

Boys-

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Justin[/name_m] Pierce-That’s fine. You don’t see a lot of [name_m]Justin[/name_m] anymore. It doesn’t do much for me, but it’s nice enough.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] Oliver-That’s adorable. I love the combo & the nn of [name_m]Max[/name_m].

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Lachlan[/name_m] Mark-Mark is meh, but probably an honor name. I absolutely love [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m]. One of those names that’s equal part soft and gentle but also kind of sporty.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Landon[/name_m] Michael-This isn’t that different from [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m], but I don’t care for [name_m]Landon[/name_m]. I think the ‘lan’ sound isn’t as pleasant and also it’s so trendy.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Summit[/name_m] West-Interesting…too descriptive as a name for my taste, but I see the appeal. At least it’s different.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Shepherd[/name_m] James-I like the vibe of [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m] more than I like saying it out loud, but it’s not bad.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Archer[/name_m] Lewis-That’s fun. I like [name_m]Archie[/name_m]. [name_m]Lewis[/name_m] is adorable.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Samson[/name_m] Michael-I love [name_m]Sam[/name_m] & [name_m]Samuel[/name_m]. I don’t like [name_m]Samson[/name_m] as much as I want to, but it’s not unpleasant.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Luke[/name_m] Michael-So many Michaels! [name_f][/name_f] I love Luke; such a cool cowboy name but also lovable.

[name_f][/name_f]

Ian-That’s fine. Doesn’t do much for me, but I don’t dislike it.

[name_f][/name_f]

Grayson-Meh; this is okay…just too trendy for me.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Lucas[/name_m] Alan-As much as I love [name_m]Luke[/name_m] & [name_m]Luca[/name_m], I don’t like [name_m]Lucas[/name_m] for some reason.

[name_f][/name_f]

Archie-Even though [name_m]Archie[/name_m] is my favorite part of [name_m]Archer[/name_m], I still prefer [name_m]Archie[/name_m] as a nn.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Riley[/name_f] Robert-Hm. I think I like seeing [name_f]Riley[/name_f] on a boy. Would prefer [name_f]Reilly[/name_f], but can’t be too picky!

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] Carter-Benjamin is beautiful.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Crew[/name_m] Jackson-Meh, I don’t know. I don’t know that I care for [name_m]Crew[/name_m].

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Louie[/name_m] Jean-I’d prefer the mn [name_m]Gene[/name_m], but alrighty…and [name_m]Louie[/name_m] as a nn.

[name_f][/name_f]

Girls-

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Elsie[/name_f] [name_f]Kate[/name_f] & [name_f]Emma[/name_f] Kate-Elsie & [name_f]Emma[/name_f] are cute for twins…not sure why they don’t each get their own middle names.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Melanie[/name_f] Jo-Melanie is kind of cute…not my favorite, but different. I don’t love [name_f]Jo[/name_f], but maybe a family name.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Hadley[/name_f] Sue-Meh, I don’t think I like [name_f]Hadley[/name_f]. [name_f][/name_f] Kind of trendy…even though I love [name_f]Hayley[/name_f], so go figure.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Hosanna[/name_f] Rose-I don’t like the sound, but I like it in theory.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Norah[/name_f] Mae-I’m such a spelling snob. I really want this to be [name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f]!

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Nora[/name_f] Ashley-Does that sound like a designer?

[name_f][/name_f]

Amethyst-That’s a bit much for a name, but interesting…maybe the nn [name_m]Ami[/name_m] would be cute?

[name_f][/name_f]

Annie-Aw, I like sweet [name_f]Annie[/name_f]. [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]Wish[/name_f] it were a nn.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_m]Miller[/name_m] Jean-Okay, at least [name_f]Millie[/name_f] is cute…don’t like [name_m]Miller[/name_m] for a girl at all.

[name_f][/name_f]

Emerysn Grace-Eh…I don’t like it.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Riley[/name_f] Josephine-I prefer [name_f]Riley[/name_f] for the boy. [name_f][/name_f] [name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] though!

[name_f][/name_f]

Thanks for sharing!

[AStudyIn_Scarlet]

I really like [name_m]Shepherd[/name_m] [name_m]James[/name_m] and [name_m]Miller[/name_m] [name_f]Jean[/name_f]!

[Nessie4]

[name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_m]Lachlan[/name_m] [name_m]Mark[/name_m], [name_m]Lucas[/name_m] [name_m]Alan[/name_m] & [name_f]Annie[/name_f]

[Mary_Rose]

these are really cute, thank you for putting these together!
I really like a lot of the boys names - Maxwell Oliver, Samson Michael, Benjamin Carter and Lucas Alan are favourites.
I like Elsie and Emma as twins, but not a fan of the repeated middles! Hadley Sue and Norah Mae are cute as well, and I always love hearing Annie.
