Middle name help please!

Hello
I’m 90% sure we have decided on first name [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] for our second boy. But I can’t decide on a middle name.

Our first boy has two middle names so my husband feels this one needs the same to be consistent! So we are likely to call him [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] ______ [name_m]Jack[/name_m] surname. Surname is one syllable.

Suggestions please - we like traditional names and have considered the following but I’m not convinced:

Arthur [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]

Thank you :blush:

I really like [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]! I thought of [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m] and [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Jack[/name_m] :slightly_smiling_face: I’d avoid anything ending in R or ER because it won’t flow very well.

Arthur [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]Cameron[/name_u] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Matthew[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Steven[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]

My choice of the two is [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]. The pronunciation [name_u]Lou[/name_u]-wee does not flow into [name_m]Jack[/name_m] well imho. I read [name_m]Louis[/name_m] as [name_m]Lewis[/name_m] which I think may offer a better flow.

Other Options since your not convinced on the above:

Brennan
[name_m]Stephen[/name_m]
[name_u]Benjamin[/name_u]
[name_u]Julian[/name_u]
[name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_u]Curtis[/name_u]
[name_m]Lucas[/name_m]
[name_m]Lucius[/name_m]
[name_m]Cornelius[/name_m]
[name_m]Bartholomew[/name_m]
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]
Cassien
[name_m]Winston[/name_m]
[name_m]Christopher[/name_m]
[name_m]Gilbert[/name_m]
[name_m]Evander[/name_m]
[name_m]Fredrick[/name_m]
[name_m]Gregory[/name_m]

I noticed a lot of good repeats that I’ll add my vote to! Of yours I prefer [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]

Arthur [name_u]Benjamin[/name_u]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Samuel[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]

I think these 5 are the best imo.

Arthur [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Jack[/name_m] is handsome!
