Need help with second child's name.

General Name Discussion
1

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all, I [name_m]JUST[/name_m] found out I’m pregnant with our second and am already stressing on names.
Our son is named:
[name_m]Lorenzo[/name_m] [name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]
(We call him both [name_m]Leo[/name_m] from his initials and [name_m]Lorenzo[/name_m])
I love love his name and would love to love our second child’s name as much.
If it’s a girl I am pretty settled on:
[name_f]Annelise[/name_f] [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
But if we have another boy… no idea! Please help!

Ideas so far:
[name_m]Lachlan[/name_m]/[name_m]Lochlan[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Redford[/name_m]
[name_m]Luciano[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Redford[/name_m] ([name_u]Luca[/name_u])
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Redford[/name_m] ([name_m]Eli[/name_m])
[name_u]Luca[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Redford[/name_m]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Redford[/name_m] ([name_u]Teddy[/name_u]??)

I would like to use [name_m]William[/name_m] as a middle. I like [name_m]Redford[/name_m], but would be open to others. We are a half Italian/half American family in UK, so names reflecting that are a bonus.

Thanks in advance for help!

My stand-alone favorite from your list is [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Redford[/name_m], but I’m afraid if you didn’t really love & really push the nn [name_u]Teddy[/name_u], you might end up with [name_m]Leo[/name_m] & [name_u]Theo[/name_u]…

Of the others I think [name_u]Luca[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Redford[/name_m] would be my pick. Simple & handsome, and [name_m]Leo[/name_m] & [name_u]Luca[/name_u] definitely sound like brothers. [name_m]Luciano[/name_m] for some reason seemed to clash a bit w/ [name_m]Redford[/name_m] (?) I’m not sure, maybe a little too much style contrast there.

One thought I had, if you really like [name_m]Eli[/name_m], you might try a combo that gives you that name from the three initials like you did with your first baby…e.g.,

[name_m]Edward[/name_m] [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] [name_m]Isaac[/name_m]
[name_m]Edison[/name_m] [name_u]Luca[/name_u] [name_m]Indio[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Luciano[/name_m] [name_m]Ingram[/name_m]

Etc. But that would nix [name_m]William[/name_m]. So perhaps…

[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Redford[/name_m]
[name_m]Frederick[/name_m] [name_m]Wiliam[/name_m] [name_u]Luca[/name_u] “[name_u]Freddie[/name_u]”
Micah Lorcan [name_m]William[/name_m] “[name_m]Milo[/name_m]”
[name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Redford[/name_m] “[name_u]Dash[/name_u]”
[name_m]Declan[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Brooks[/name_m] “[name_m]Dex[/name_m]”

Congratulations!

Thanks for the response. I feel like I really out myself in a pickle.

I do like [name_m]Milo[/name_m]. I think you are right about [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] becoming a [name_u]Theo[/name_u]. I’m not a fan of [name_u]Theo[/name_u] and definitely don’t like it with [name_m]Leo[/name_m], but love [name_m]Theodore[/name_m].
