Middle name for Elijah

Boy Names

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all,

My husband and I are expecting our second child at the end of [name_u]November[/name_u]. The gender is a surprise, however we are heavily leaning towards [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] “[name_m]Eli[/name_m]” if it’s a boy. Our first daughter, [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f] “[name_f]Addy[/name_f]” would have been [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Carson[/name_u] had she been a boy. We both adore [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] and love it’s biblical connection and [name_u]Carson[/name_u] is a name we just both liked with it. However this time round both of us agree it just doesn’t feel quite right. We would love some new suggestions as a middle name for [name_m]Elijah[/name_m]. We are tossing up using [name_m]Todd[/name_m] as it is my husband’s grandfathers name but not sure of the flow of [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Todd[/name_m]. What do you guys think?

And what do you guys think of [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] “[name_f]Addy[/name_f]” and [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] “[name_m]Eli[/name_m]” are siblings? We are still welcome to new suggestions if you don’t think they work :). Thank you!!

[name_f]Addy[/name_f] and [name_m]Eli[/name_m] go so well together, think they’re very well suited. I personally really like [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Reed[/name_u].

[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] and [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] are great together!!

[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Todd[/name_m] is nice and I like the pp’s suggestion of [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Reed[/name_u]

[name_m]Todd[/name_m] means fox so [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Fox[/name_m] maybe?

[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Rory[/name_u]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Colt[/name_m]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Reeve[/name_u]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Finn[/name_u]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m]

[name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] & [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] make such a nice sib set.

[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Henrik[/name_m]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Apollo[/name_m]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Atticus[/name_m]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Luke[/name_m]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Elliot[/name_u]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Jackson[/name_m]

[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Todd[/name_m] flows well too, in my opinion.

I like the sound of [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_u]Carter[/name_u] [name_m]Todd[/name_m] two middle names might work out for you.

Thank you all so much for all your responses! I was never expecting so many and am very thankful. We have found quite a few names that we really liked from your suggestions and have a short list which we thought some of you might be interested in hearing!

[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_u]Ruby[/name_u] “[name_f]Bea[/name_f]”
[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f] “[name_f]Elle[/name_f]”
[name_u]Eloise[/name_u] [name_u]Ruby[/name_u] “[name_u]Lou[/name_u]”
[name_f]Saskia[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f] “Sassy”
[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] [name_f]Hope[/name_f] “[name_f]Vivi[/name_f]”

I love the do lettering and often find myself lettering [name_f]Addy[/name_f]’s name. I have started testing out these names to see which ones feel the most ‘right’.

For a boy we still love [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] “[name_m]Eli[/name_m]” however am no longer considering [name_u]Carson[/name_u] as a middle name. We actually fell in love with the suggestion [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m], so thank you @greyblue. So if this baby is a boy we will have [name_f]Addy[/name_f] and [name_m]Eli[/name_m]!

Again thank you all so much. It is such a relief having these five girls names and [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m]. Though we aren’t finding out the gender, I have an inkling that this baby is a girl!!
