Naming son after mom

John Laurence? Stunning!!
I personally think that honoring a mom through the kid’s name is just amazing, since in most cases the last name is from the father I think that it should also have a connection to the mother
And to be honest I love the masculine version of my name and would be happy to use it in the first or middle name spot deppending on the combo

I think naming a son after the mom is absolutely fine.

[name_f]Awesome[/name_f] idea! I love [name_u]John[/name_u] [name_u]Laurence[/name_u] “Jack”. :slight_smile: One of my favourite combos for a future boy honours my sister in the middle and my great grandmother in the first (and she was named after her grandmother).

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_u]John[/name_u] [name_u]Laurence[/name_u]! Such a great idea. I like the idea of using a mother-inspired name. [name_f]My[/name_f] sister’s name is [name_f]Mary[/name_f] and her son’s middle name is [name_m]Mariano[/name_m] for a nod to her (and his Italian heritage).

[name_u]John[/name_u] [name_u]Laurence[/name_u] “Jack” is seriously perfect and I love it for you!

I love including your name ! We also used the male version of my name for my sons middle
[name_m]Deacon[/name_m] [name_m]Allan[/name_m] [name_u]Douglas[/name_u] has a ton of significance for us! [name_m]Allan[/name_m] is the male version of my name , my husbands middle name and my mother in laws fathers name . [name_u]Douglas[/name_u] is my maternal grandfather so we chalked his name full of honours !

John/Jack [name_u]Laurence[/name_u] is a wonderful name!!
I think it is a lovely idea to name your baby after you. Mother’s should be honored more often!

My younger brothers middle name is the male version of mothers middle name and I love this! I think it is great if honour names do not depend on gender. It would go for it, Jack Laurence is great!

[name_u]Laurence[/name_u] is a terrific name in itself, which works beautifully with [name_u]John[/name_u] (Jack), and the connection to you even better. All for honouring the mother in a son’s name. [name_f]My[/name_f] second son has the same first and middle initials as me, which I love.

John Lawrence ‘Jack’ is great for you! I say you should go with it if you have a boy!

[name_u]Love[/name_u] the idea and think it works perfectly! The two pair together nicely and it honors both sides of Jack’s family :slight_smile:

Nothing wrong with naming a son after mom. [name_f]My[/name_f] mn is my mother’s maiden name.

I think [name_u]John[/name_u] [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] is beautiful!
