Hello! [name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I are expecting our first baby as early as next week and still can’t decide on a middle name for our boy. His first name will be [name_u]Orion[/name_u]. We would like a short, one to two syallable middle name. The only real restriction is that it can’t end in “O” as our last name does.
We have a bit of a different taste in names, we aren’t keen on common names and like ones that are a little more fresh and modern. Anyone have any suggestions for us? Thank you!
[name_f]My[/name_f] first thought was [name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] until I saw that it couldn’t end in “O”. Here are some other suggestions:
With
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] _ _ surname-o
I wouldn’t choose a middle ending in O as you mentioned or ending in n as [name_u]Orion[/name_u] ( a beautiful name I should add) ends in n and it would disrupt the flow I.e.
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]Collin[/name_m] [name_m]Leo[/name_m] ( I just made up a middle name for you to show what I’m getting at) I would also avoid a name starting in O as [name_u]Orion[/name_u] does and you’d get
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Leo[/name_m]… Lots of os and lis innitials would be OO :-/ if you want to go for it but I personally would have those as restrictions and don’t have a middle name that ends in the letter the last name ends with either so they don’t run together. And avoid anything with an o in it since [name_u]Orion[/name_u] has 2 and avoid repeating the I sound [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] would be out [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] and [name_m]Ivan[/name_m] and ryder… Also I wouldn’t start it with R since -rion is such a big part of the name you’d get a very melodic sound that I imagine most families aren’t looking for . [name_u]Orion[/name_u] is a very solid name but the middle you choose can pull it in either a very solid ( wow they are so good at choosing incredible names, their son is so lucky!) directions or questionable ( what are they trying to do… Be creative?) directions… ie…
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]David[/name_m]

[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_f]Eller[/name_f]

[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]Jared[/name_m] OJ might not be ideal initials
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]Lander[/name_m]
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_u]Misha[/name_u] ( I pronounced ee so not a conflict)
[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]Neville[/name_m]

[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]Ulrick[/name_m]

[name_u]Orion[/name_u] [name_m]Xander[/name_m]
