middle name for Rufus?

Boy Names
1

We are expecting in early [name]November[/name], and we don’t know the gender of the baby. Our 2y.o. girl is named [name]Clementine[/name] [name]Jane[/name]. If we have a girl, our top picks are [name]Beatrix[/name] [name]Pearl[/name], [name]Jemima[/name] [name]Pearl[/name], or [name]Ursula[/name] [name]Pearl[/name]. These were all top picks with our first as well. If we have a boy, we will likely go with [name]Rufus[/name], as it is the only name we can agree on and the one we keep coming back to. So…I need help with a middle name for [name]Rufus[/name]. This is what I am thinking so far:

[name]Rufus[/name] [name]Mungo[/name] (I am mostly Scottish, plus this name is so darned cute, but tell me if it’s a horrible thing to do to a child!)
[name]Rufus[/name] [name]Jude[/name]

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

[name]Rufus[/name] [name]Mungo[/name] is funky (that’s a good thing to me.) If you want to go a more traditional route, though, I suggest these:
[name]Rufus[/name] [name]Alexander[/name]
[name]Rufus[/name] [name]James[/name]
[name]Rufus[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Rufus[/name] [name]Vincent[/name]
[name]Rufus[/name] [name]Isaiah[/name]
[name]Rufus[/name] [name]Paul[/name]
[name]Rufus[/name] [name]Wayne[/name]

I say go with what you like.

[name]Mungo[/name] is neat, but a little too out there for me. :slight_smile: I did like the suggestion of [name]Rufus[/name] [name]Jago[/name], though. I also have a soft spot for [name]Alisdair[/name]/[name]Alistair[/name], so I liked that suggestion… [name]Rufus[/name] is a great choice!
