Middles for Edmund?

Boy Names
1

Lately I’ve been thinking about the name [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] a lot.

Edit: some suggestions people have offered that I really like
Edmund Bartholomew
Edmund Augustine
Edmund Florian
Edmund Pascal

I’ve always adored this name. But for quite some time I simply wasn’t considering first name options under 3 syllables because my first son has a very long name, [name_m]Archimedes[/name_m]. The more I think about it though, the more I think [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] stands up next to [name_m]Archimedes[/name_m] just fine and wouldn’t be an issue.

The only problem is, I have no idea what middle to pair with it! Since I never considered [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] for a first name I never made any combos with it as a first. I want to round out my top 3 which means I need to have some solid combinations to present my partner with.

Our last name is [name_m]Harris[/name_m], so I’d like to avoid a two syllable middle name if possible, and would also prefer to avoid options starting with the letter H or ending with -s. Beyond that I’m very open to suggestions!

My other names in my top 3 are:
Oleander- possible middles include [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m], [name_m]Gerard[/name_m], [name_m]Rupert[/name_m], [name_m]Peregrine[/name_m], [name_u]Vivian[/name_u], [name_m]Lucian[/name_m]
[name_u]Dorian[/name_u]- possible middles include [name_m]Edgar[/name_m], [name_m]Virgil[/name_m], [name_m]Alphonse[/name_m], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Basil[/name_m], [name_u]Penrose[/name_u]

I think some of the names you already have work well with [name_m]Edmund[/name_m]. [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Peregrine[/name_m] and [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] Oleander both sound great to me. I definitely think something a bit longer would work well to sort of balance out [name_m]Archimedes[/name_m]. Other names that came to mind:

[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Apollo[/name_m]
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Evander[/name_m]
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Alonzo[/name_m]
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Caspian[/name_m]
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_u]Constantine[/name_u]
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Barnaby[/name_m]
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_u]Oberon[/name_u]
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Cicero[/name_m]

Thank you all! There are some really lovely suggestions here.

I adore [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Bartholomew[/name_m]!!!
Also [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_u]Florian[/name_u], [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_u]August[/name_u]/[name_m]Augustine[/name_m], and [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Pascal[/name_m] (while I was shooting for something longer in the middle I think the cadence of [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] [name_m]Pascal[/name_m] [name_m]Harris[/name_m] is fine.)

I have really liked both Isambard and [name_m]Leopold[/name_m] for some time but probably wouldn’t pair them with [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] because of tue matching -d endings.
