I’m wondering what people think of the double name [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m]? As in, we would be using both names as his full name. No hyphen. It’s very common where we live to be [name_m]John[/name_m] _____. [name_f]My[/name_f] worry is [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] doesn’t have great flow?? I find when the second name starts with vowel it flows nicer ie. [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Alec[/name_m], [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Edward[/name_m], etc. I’m scared people might drop the [name_m]Robert[/name_m] too easily and nothing wrong with name [name_m]John[/name_m] but just a bit plain on its own for my taste. Honest opinions please! [name_m]Robert[/name_m] is my dads name btw, that’s why trying to incorporate it.
I like [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] as a double name. Where I live this wouldn’t be a problem. I went to school with a [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] and knew another boy named [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m]. Everyone called them by both names.
Ok thanks. That is similar to here. went to school with so many [name_m]John[/name_m] ____. All different combos. I really like the double name style. Like I said, just worry about it becoming only [name_m]John[/name_m] but I guess that’s unavoidable and any name can end up changed to something you may not like so just have to get over that.
[name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] is okay. I knew one. He was always called [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] as a boy. Now he goes by J.R. It is kind of plain…but if it has special meaning to you.
There were a few boys that I knew with double names and everyone knew to use both names.
There was a [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m] and [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] (he was mostly called [name_m]Jimmy[/name_m] [name_u]Pat[/name_u] or J.P)
[name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] sounds great as a double name.
[name_f]My[/name_f] dad is actually a [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m]. The intention was for him to be called both names, but he ended up preferring [name_m]Rob[/name_m]. I think it flows nicely though!
Actually names that end in “n” flow better with middle names that begin consonants ([name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Alec[/name_m] = Johnalec) so [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] sounds fine. You may have to be strict with people who may want to shorten it to just [name_m]John[/name_m]. Is [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Henry[/name_m] still in the running? [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] [name_m]Henry[/name_m]?
[name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] is an awesome double name. [name_m]Robert[/name_m] spices up [name_m]John[/name_m], and together it sounds wonderful!
[name_u]Mischa[/name_u], [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Henry[/name_m] is still in running for sure. I have so many ideas but the only name my husband ever seems to like is [name_m]John[/name_m] ahah so just trying dif options to spice it up a bit. I just can’t get on board w/ plain [name_m]John[/name_m] as baby’s name. Nothing wrong with the name.just too bland. The only name out of the zillions I’ve suggested that my husband likes, besides [name_m]John[/name_m], is [name_m]Edgar[/name_m]. he’s very fussy!
[name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] sounds great to me!
[name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Robert[/name_m] is awesome! If you’re concerned about people dropping the [name_m]Robert[/name_m], maybe you could use [name_m]JR[/name_m] as a nickname?
