Middle name suggestions, please?

Boy Names
1

I am due in late [name_u]Jan[/name_u]/early Feb. with our fourth child, our first boy. His first name is Oberyn (Oh-burr-in), three syllables.

I am having the hardest time with a middle name. I’m drawn to Italian names currently. Here are the names I like, but don’t give me that “ah ha” feeling:

[name_m]Lorenzo[/name_m]
[name_u]Arlo[/name_u]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u]
Xiomar (pronounced [name_m]Jamar[/name_m], soft j sound)
[name_m]Alaric[/name_m]

Here are the ones that are completely out that Hubs vetoed hardcore:

Guiseppe
[name_m]Giovanni[/name_m]
[name_m]Enzo[/name_m] (though husband likes [name_m]Enzio[/name_m], but I don’t)

I have torn through so many baby name lists waiting for that ‘ah ha’ moment and it’s yet to come. Here are the names of our daughters and the name of his son from his first marriage:

[name_u]Jalen[/name_u] [name_m]Christopher[/name_m]
[name_f]Gianna[/name_f] [name_f]Belle[/name_f]
[name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_f]Giselle[/name_f]
Evanora [name_f]Gail[/name_f]

I’d like it to flow, of course…

Thank you for your suggestions! :slight_smile:

Congratulations on your fourth!

All lovely names to.choose from. Perhaps something short in the middle to complement
Oberyn;

Oberyn [name_m]Leo[/name_m] (you seem to have ‘natural’ names in the middle for your other kids so this jumped out at me)
Oberyn [name_m]Marco[/name_m]
Oberyn [name_u]Luca[/name_u]

[name_f]Beat[/name_f] wishes with your search :slight_smile:

Thank you for the replies, ladies! The suggestions are great. You listed a couple I hadn’t come across yet and I tossed them at the husband to see what he thinks.
