[name_m]Linus[/name_m][name_f][/name_f] → handsome, vintage, and cool. It gives me a hint of mystery but kind of feels cuddly too? It does rhyme with sinus the way I pronounce but I don’t find it too big a deal? There are worse rhymes 
Lots of good middle options [name_f][/name_f]- [name_m]Linus[/name_m] [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m], [name_m]Linus[/name_m] [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] 
[name_f][/name_f], [name_m]Linus[/name_m] [name_m]Benjamin[/name_m], [name_m]Linus[/name_m] [name_m]Franklin[/name_m] and [name_m]Linus[/name_m] [name_m]Murphy[/name_m] are my faves
[name_m]Wallace[/name_m][name_f][/name_f] → cool, clunky, and unexpected. I do find it a little too similar to W.arr.en for my tastes and while I don’t think it’s unusable (they won’t always be referred to together after all), I do find myself tripping on the War- [name_m]Wal[/name_m] sounds?
[name_f][/name_f]I like [name_m]Wallace[/name_m] [name_m]Augustine[/name_m], [name_m]Wallace[/name_m] [name_m]Casper[/name_m] and [name_m]Wallace[/name_m] [name_m]Jasper[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Gene[/name_m][name_f][/name_f] → it has a kind of relaxed, gentlemanly vibe. A bit quirky but wise. I like it better than [name_m]Eugene[/name_m]
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Gus[/name_m][name_f][/name_f] → rugged but somehow polished at the same time. But if you’re not feeling it, I’d strike it off
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Hewitt[/name_m] [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m][name_f][/name_f] → ooh, familiar sounds but also distinctive. I like it
[name_f][/name_f]I would probably strike: [name_m]Dexter[/name_m], [name_m]Foster[/name_m], [name_m]Fisher[/name_m], [name_m]Watson[/name_m] (closer to W.ar.ren than [name_m]Wallace[/name_m] imo), [name_m]Franklin[/name_m], [name_m]Melvin[/name_m], [name_m]Clemens[/name_m], and [name_m]Wiley[/name_m].
[name_f][/name_f]Intrigued by [name_m]Clement[/name_m], [name_m]Nile[/name_m], [name_m]Ray[/name_m], [name_m]Gilbert[/name_m], and [name_m]Eamon[/name_m] for you.
