Definitely [name]Matthew[/name]. Never been a fan of [name]Malachi[/name] as it just makes me think of Children of the Corn.

I love [name]Malachi[/name]. It’s another one of those names my husband just refuses to even acknowledge so I love seeing them on other people/children.

[name]Malachi[/name] is gorgeous and distinctive. [name]Matthew[/name] is…fine.

While [name]Matthew[/name], is great…and will forever be a strong masculine name. I prefer [name]Malachi[/name].
The name [name]Malachi[/name] mean “Messenger of God” which makes me like it even more! I love name meanings.
Also…you can give the nickname “[name]Kai[/name]”, “[name]Ky[/name]” or however you choose to spell it.

([name]Matthew[/name] name meaning is “Gift a God” another great choice. However, I am more partial to [name]Mateusz[/name]. (Maybe, just for family significance?)
