Middle name for Joel - opinions and ideas please!

General Name Discussion

Hello!

Had a long discussion with DH this evening and we are definitely going with [name]Joel[/name] (1 syllable) for our baby boys first name.

Now to the middle name: So far we have:
[name]Joel[/name] [name]Henry[/name] Drinkwater (DH’s fn)
[name]Joel[/name] [name]Matthew[/name] Drinkwater (DH’s mn)
[name]Joel[/name] Albus Drinkwater (name we both love but agreed was unworkable as first name with our surname)

Would love to hear your thoughts and particularly any other ideas!

Thankyou [name]Val[/name] x

I think [name]Joel[/name] [name]Henry[/name] Drinkwater is fabulous :slight_smile: [name]Joel[/name] Albus is a bit tongue-twister-y for me and [name]Joel[/name] [name]Matthew[/name] doesn’t have the same sparkle.

Good [name]Luck[/name]!

I’ve never been a fan of [name]Henry[/name] so from your list I like [name]Joel[/name] [name]Matthew[/name]. When I say [name]Henry[/name] with Drinkwater a couple of times, I feel like I have a lisp (henwee dwinkwater). Here are some other middle name suggestions.
