1 [name]Lachlan[/name] [name]James[/name] - [name]How[/name] good does this combo sound with your surname?
2 [name]Jack[/name] - [name]Jack[/name] Ferro is novelist material. :slight_smile: As long as you don’t mind that some people may hear [name]Jack[/name] [name]Sparrow[/name].
3 [name]William[/name] [name]Brett[/name] - A safer choice but distinguished

I love that [name]Lachlan[/name] has sentimental value to you. [name]Lachlan[/name] [name]James[/name] is stunning! I also love [name]Jack[/name] and [name]Liam[/name].

[name]Lachlan[/name] [name]James[/name] Ferro has excellent flow, is well-balanced, and is striking in the right ways. Great choice.

I voted [name]Jack[/name], with [name]Lachlan[/name] [name]James[/name] a close second. If you’re looking for names to honour a British/Irish heritage- [name]Jack[/name]'s a good bet. It’s been popular both here and in [name]Ireland[/name] for ages now, but I don’t believe it saw the same popularity in the US.

[name]William[/name] [name]Brett[/name] - [name]William[/name] is magnificent :wink: I dislike [name]Liam[/name] but it’s a nod to your Irish heritage. I couldn’t vote for it though because I really dislike the name [name]Brett[/name] and it screams ‘American’ to me.

[name]Keith[/name] [name]Edwin[/name] - I think [name]Keith[/name] is too dated for a little boy today, but [name]Edwin[/name] is lovely. If both are family names then the little one doesn’t have much originality in his name! [name]How[/name] about [name]William[/name] [name]Keith[/name], [name]William[/name] [name]Edwin[/name] or [name]Jack[/name] [name]William[/name]? or [name]William[/name] [name]Jack[/name]?!

[name]Jack[/name] Ferro sounds great. So does [name]Liam[/name] Ferro ([name]Liam[/name] is my favorite first name). But [name]Lachlan[/name] [name]James[/name] is my favorite combo, and since it has meaning to you I’d vote for that. I like [name]Edwin[/name] but not [name]Keith[/name]. [name]Edwin[/name] Ferro would be nice!

I voted for [name]Lachlan[/name] [name]James[/name]. [name]May[/name] I suggest [name]Lachlan[/name] [name]Keith[/name]? That would get my vote in an instant. The ‘k’ sound of [name]Keith[/name] resonates better than the initial ‘j’ sound of [name]James[/name] following the final ‘n’ of [name]Lachlan[/name]. Does that make sense? I think this is because both ‘n’ and ‘j’ are such soft sounds. Plus, I like that both [name]Lachlan[/name] and [name]Keith[/name] are family names!
