Our last name is one syllable and starts with “W”.
In the running as of now are: [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Ian[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Colin[/name] and [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Asher[/name] (although I kind of hear “Masher” when I say that together). I’d probably like to avoid a “W” name so as not to have alliteration (or is that not so bad?).
Ready? Go!
[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Ian[/name] made me laugh because it reminds me of [name]Ian[/name] [name]Malcolm[/name] of Jurassic [name]Park[/name].
Suggestions:
Oh! I’m glad you mentioned that! I haven’t seen that movie in a bajillion years and I did t realize that was a character’s name.
Thanks for your suggestions!
I like [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Asher[/name] but I can see the Masher thing >.< And I don’t think alliteration is so bad if the middle name and last name are the ones with the alliteration.
Suggestions:
Malcolm Owen
Malcolm Noah
Malcolm Lucas
Malcolm Duncan
Malcolm Avery
Malcolm Lachlan
Malcolm Declan
Malcolm Tristan
Malcolm Caleb
Malcolm Simon
Malcolm Samuel
Malcolm August
Malcolm David
Malcolm Jared
Malcolm Liam
Malcolm Arthur

[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Ian[/name] sounds beautiful, and I don’t think it’s too closely associated with a movie character. You could try [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Andrew[/name]. [name]Andrew[/name] is the patron saint of [name]Scotland[/name]. Sounds cool!
[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Sinclair[/name]
[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Bradford[/name]
[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Thomas[/name]

If your last name begins with W, then it’s worth noting that if you choose a middle name starting with A, I or O, your son’s initials will be MAW, MEW or MOW. That wouldn’t be a deal-breaker for me at all, but I thought I should mention it.
[name]Malcolm[/name] is a fabulous name and there have been some great middle names suggested.
[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Dexter[/name] and I like [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Douglas[/name], it has some sparkle.
[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Angus[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Fergus[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Finlay[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Gwilym[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Ivor[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]David[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Hugh[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Donald[/name],
[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Giles[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]James[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Archie[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Hamish[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Gordon[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Graham[/name], [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Geraint[/name]
Thanks for mentioning this, holey. I had, in fact, considered this. I’m not sure it would be a deal breaker for me but I would rather initials NOT spell a word. I suppose if I felt the name was close to perfect, I’d just overlook any initial issues. [name]One[/name] of our son’s initials are RAW. We just say it’s cos he’s RAWesome. We’re dorks like that.
Thanks, again for taking the time to comment
Thanks miloowen! I like almost all of these. Particularly- [name]Fergus[/name], [name]Ivor[/name],[name]Hugh[/name], [name]James[/name] and [name]Graham[/name].
I’ll add them to our list
My Grandmother’s maiden name is [name]Scott[/name] (I realize it’s one syllable). [name]Do[/name] you think [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Scott[/name] is TOO Scottish? As a name on it’s own, do you think [name]Scott[/name] is really dated?
I like the combo of [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Scott[/name] and if you have Scottish forebears it is fitting to use a Scottish flavoured name and even if there are no Scots in the family and you just love the names that is fine too.
([name]Just[/name] an aside, My Scottish forebear had the common name of [name]Smith[/name] so I would never use that but you are lucky [name]Scott[/name] is a great name to perpetuate.)
Is [name]Scott[/name] dated? Yes and No. I would rather see a [name]Scott[/name] than a [name]Benjamin[/name] which is way too popular for my tastes and you have the added bonus of [name]Scott[/name] being Grandma’s maiden name which is wonderful.
I really think this is one for the short list. (I am still really impressed with [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Douglas[/name] I like that a lot.)

Thanks, rollo. I always appreciate your opinion. We do have Scots on my Father’s side. My brother’s middle name is [name]Scott[/name] (for our Grandmother) so using [name]Scott[/name] as [name]Malcolm[/name]'s middle might be a nice little nod to him as well.
[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Douglas[/name] is definitely towards the top- it really is handsome, isn’t it?
