[name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]Gideon[/name_m] seems very mismatched, unless you’re a Buddhist [name_m]Christian[/name_m] evangelical fundamentalist. [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Edison[/name_m] is a mouthful. [name_m]Jackson[/name_m] [name_m]Axel[/name_m] is rhymey. [name_m]Mannix[/name_m] sounds manic. But I love [name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and especially [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] [name_m]Wyatt[/name_m].

[name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] is ravishing, absolutely handsome. I also like [name_m]Axel[/name_m] a lot, but not [name_m]Jackson[/name_m].

I agree that [name_m]Henry[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] and [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] [name_m]Wyatt[/name_m] are your best combos. Actually I like [name_m]Mannix[/name_m] [name_m]Holden[/name_m] as a combo too.

Breaking down the other combos: Jacks and [name_m]Ax[/name_m] rhyme, so [name_m]Jackson[/name_m] [name_m]Axel[/name_m] doesn’t sound quite right to me. I like both names in [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Edison[/name_m], but the flow is a bit off for me, since they’re both 3 syllables with the same cadence. And [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]Gide[/name_m]- sounds a bit repetitive.

Some ideas playing mix n match: [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]Wyatt[/name_m], [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] [name_m]Gideon[/name_m], [name_m]Holden[/name_m] [name_m]Atticus[/name_m], [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Holden[/name_m], [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_u]Dexter[/name_u], [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]Atlas[/name_m], [name_m]Axel[/name_m] [name_m]Gideon[/name_m], [name_m]Axel[/name_m] [name_m]Wyatt[/name_m]… :slight_smile:
