Our sons middle name is [name_m]Edison[/name_m] and we love the connection it has with [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] [name_m]Edison[/name_m].
Looking for other names that have great connections with men who are considered great in history?
My first inclination was to go religious with [name_m]Peter[/name_m] or [name_m]Paul[/name_m], but otherwise:
[name_m]Franklin[/name_m] (FDR was such an inspirational president, imo, and I think [name_m]Edison[/name_m] and [name_m]Franklin[/name_m] are cute together! It could also be for [name_m]Ben[/name_m] [name_m]Franklin[/name_m], who was also super cool)
[name_m]Lincoln[/name_m]
[name_m]Graham[/name_m] ([name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_m]Graham[/name_m] [name_u]Bell[/name_u]?)
[name_m]Booker[/name_m] ([name_m]Booker[/name_m] T. [name_m]Washington[/name_m])
[name_m]Frederick[/name_m] (I love [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] [name_m]Douglass[/name_m]!)
I’m getting tired, though, so that’s the extent of my inspiration so far! Good luck!
