[name_m]Just[/name_m] found out that I’ll be induced with our second son this [name_m]Saturday[/name_m]…5 days away! We have a 4yr old son named [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] (last name is 2 syllables and starts with a Ch) and absolutely [name_f]LOVE[/name_f] his name… so much so that I can’t seem to love another boy name as much, so I haven’t really committed to anything. My husband has been calling him [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] already and I do love the name but wonder now if it’s too close to [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]?? Middle name would be [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] after two family members who have passed (but would not use [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] as first name… know too many already).
We call do [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] “[name_u]Ollie[/name_u]” quite often but would not use the nn “[name_m]Ozzie[/name_m]” for [name_m]Oscar[/name_m]… I think it’s too similar to [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] and don’t think 2 syllable [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] needs to be ‘shortened’ to another 2 syllable name.
Is it too close?? [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m]??? [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m]?? [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]??
The other names we both like are [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]… but just had a good friend from college name her son [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m] 10mo ago… but mostly only in touch via FB now. and I love [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] but my hubby doesn’t so much. I’m really starting to panic now that I know he’s coming SOON! Any advice would be sooo appreciated!!! Thank you!
[name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]!!!
[name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]!!
It’s funny that my husband and I are seriously considering naming our son due any day [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m] lol so we have similar taste!! I love the name [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m] (ESP the nn [name_u]Finn[/name_u]), but was afraid it wasn’t “serious” enough if that makes any sense. I do love it though with [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and think if you don’t mind the party feel that I get from it then you should go for it!! I am personally not a fan of [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] at all and agree they are too close. [name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] though! We also considered [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m], [name_m]Lincoln[/name_m] and [name_m]Griffin[/name_m] ( to get [name_u]Finn[/name_u] ) if you like any if those??
I think [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] are fine together, I like sibling alliteration.
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] could be done, but they are a bit similar and you will most likely be tripping over their names all the time. Take it from a girl whose sisters name is close to mine.
I love [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m], but if you want to keep it as a middle, here are some more options:
[name_m]Radley[/name_m] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]
[name_u]Everett[/name_u] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]
[name_m]Miller[/name_m] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]
[name_u]Jude[/name_u] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]
[name_u]Lyle[/name_u] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]
[name_m]Graham[/name_m] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]
[name_u]Arlo[/name_u] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]
Good Lcuk!
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m] / [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] & [name_u]Finn[/name_u] would be so cute! Too bad. [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] & [name_m]Griffin[/name_m] are great suggestions:
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] / [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] & [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] or [name_u]Theo[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] / [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] & [name_u]Max[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_m]Griffin[/name_m] / [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] & [name_u]Finn[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] / [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] & [name_u]Sam[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_m]Simon[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] & [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m]
[name_u]Ollie[/name_u] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] is ok too, but not if it bothers you. [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] and [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] would bother me more, since it’s almost all the same letters in reverse order.
I’m not a fan of [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] as they start with the same letter and have the same ending too.
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_u]Flynn[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Isaac[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Thomas[/name_m]

[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Dominic[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Matthew[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Frederick[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Ronan[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Patrick[/name_m]

[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Arthur[/name_m]
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps, good luck!
I think [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] are much to similar - what if you have a third? I do like [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m], but I understand not wanting to repeat. [name_m]How[/name_m] about:
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_m]Clark[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_m]Adrian[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_m]Jonah[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_m]Conrad[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_m]Julian[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_m]Miles[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_m]Peter[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_u]Reid[/name_u] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] & [name_m]Leo[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
I really dislike [name_m]Oscar[/name_m]. I would use [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] or [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m].
What about [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Joel[/name_m]? I think [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] is too close. [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] and [name_m]Joel[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]?
I like [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], it goes great with [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_f]IMO[/name_f]. I also think it would go well with the Ch-- last name. For a mn go with [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]. Or maybe [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m].
We’re naming our second baby boy [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]! [name_f]Love[/name_f] it. His big bro is [name_m]Wesley[/name_m] “[name_m]Wes[/name_m]”. But back to your dilemma…I love [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]! Great choice. : )
I have a friend with twin boys.
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_u]Flynn[/name_u]. So cute.
[name_u]Flynn[/name_u] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m].
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] are a bit too similar, but [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m] go really well together. Especially as they’re both three syllables.
Other options:
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_u]Reed[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Jonas[/name_m]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]George[/name_m]
We have a son named [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]. [name_u]Olly[/name_u] was born this past [name_f]April[/name_f]. I adore his name. He suits it to a tee! (:
I am worried that if we have another boy that I wont love his name as much…
Funny because [name_m]Finnegan[/name_m]…nn [name_u]Finn[/name_u]/Finne or Finny? is on top of our list.
Other names on our list:
[name_u]Roan[/name_u] or [name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_u]Charly[/name_u]
[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] nn [name_m]Benji[/name_m]
[name_m]Stellan[/name_m]
good luck this [name_m]Saturday[/name_m]. let us know what you decide (:
