There is a lot that I love about this name but have not found a natural middle name for it. I even love the literary reference and am not opposed to taking two names from Lois Lowry’s The Giver and using Gabriel as a middle (Jonas Gabriel)—or is that too weird? It will be a December baby too so I think that adds to the justification of Gabriel.
I have also thought about Jonas Alexander but it seems almost too obvious.
I’ve read The Giver and I don’t think [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] is too strongly tied to it! I actually wouldn’t have thought of the book from seeing the combo if you hadn’t mentioned it. Both [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] and [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] are very handsome.
[name_m]Jonas[/name_m] [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] is quite a handsome combo. I’m sure if someone has read the book or seen the movie they may make the connection between [name_m]Jonas[/name_m] and [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] but both are common enough names that it could be pure coincidence.
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m] makes a great middle name, but it seems a bit lackluster these days.
