[name_u]Baby[/name_u] Boy three is on the way! We are basically starting from scratch on names and I need some inspiration.
Siblings are
[name_m]Nathan[/name_m] [name_m]Stafford[/name_m]
[name_u]August[/name_u] [name_u]Reed[/name_u]
[name_u]Kelsey[/name_u] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_m]Al[/name_m] of the other names are family names (except [name_m]Nathan[/name_m]) and we prefer to either include a family name this time or names that have important significance to us.
Also boys go by their middle names so sibset would be [name_m]Stafford[/name_m], [name_u]Reed[/name_u], [name_u]Kelsey[/name_u] & X. I’m not tied to this baby going by his middle name!
Family names are
[name_m]Donald[/name_m] (I need a play on this…something like [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] maybe?)
[name_m]Lawson[/name_m]
[name_m]Peter[/name_m] (again need a play on this…was thinking [name_m]Pierce[/name_m] or [name_m]Pierson[/name_m])
[name_u]Gale[/name_u]
[name_m]Anderson[/name_m]
[name_m]Willson[/name_m]
[name_m]Granville[/name_m]
[name_u]Lee[/name_u]
Some combinations, all of which have at least one family name or variation (feel free to take middles/firsts of one and switch to make a combination you like better):
[name_m]Donovan[/name_m] [name_u]Gale[/name_u] - love [name_m]Donovan[/name_m] for [name_m]Donald[/name_m]!
[name_m]Pierce[/name_m] [name_m]Anderson[/name_m]
[name_m]Pierson[/name_m] [name_u]Lee[/name_u]
[name_m]Anderson[/name_m] ([name_m]Anders[/name_m]) [name_u]Lee[/name_u]
[name_m]Pierce[/name_m] [name_m]Granville[/name_m]
You could also use [name_m]Grant[/name_m] for [name_m]Granville[/name_m]?
[name_m]Grant[/name_m] [name_m]Willson[/name_m], [name_m]Grant[/name_m] [name_m]Anderson[/name_m], [name_m]Grant[/name_m] [name_m]Pierson[/name_m]
i like your combinations…just looking for something that hits me the way my other kiddos do. I think we have narrowed down our family name to [name_m]Pierce[/name_m], [name_m]Pierson[/name_m] or [name_m]Lawson[/name_m]. So now it’s finding a first name that we love (we don’t necessarily want to call the baby by the family name…just want to include it).
I’ve always loved the Dutch spelling: [name_m]Pieter[/name_m] since watching “Girl With a [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] Earring”…probably because the character was played by a young and super cute [name_m]Cillian[/name_m] [name_u]Murphy[/name_u]
I’m a little confused as to whether we’re limited to the names on your list.
I really love [name_m]Lawson[/name_m]! Perhaps [name_m]Lawson[/name_m] could be the first name and then you choose a middle that he goes by? It feels like if the two other brothers go by their middles then this baby boy should too! People would probably also expect it.
No not at all!! That’s what I need help with! I plan to use one of the family names as a middle
But am WIDE open for first names. Looking for something that “matches” [name_u]Reed[/name_u] [name_u]Kelsey[/name_u] and [name_m]Stafford[/name_m].
