[name]Hi[/name] everyone! I am so thankful for all your help.
We have come to some sort of consensus for several boys’ names. What do you think? Last name is still [name]Lewi[/name]$ of course. Any middle name suggestions for the last 3 would be appreciated. I hope to either find THE name or have a couple with us in case Bump is a boy. [name]Rosemarie[/name] [name]Blythe[/name] is the girls name we have chosen.
[name]Roderick[/name] [name]William[/name] (nn [name]Rory[/name]) - The more I hear [name]Roderick[/name] the more I like it
[name]William[/name] <something> (nn [name]Wim[/name])
[name]Fitzwilliam[/name] <something> - (nn [name]Fitz[/name]) Husband thinks [name]Fitzwilliam[/name] [name]Lewi[/name]$ is great.
[name]Malcolm[/name] <something> - (nn [name]Mac[/name]) We both still really love this name but [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]William[/name] is just a mouth-jumbler.
So far I would say [name]Roderick[/name] is my favorite and [name]Fitzwilliam[/name] is his (and an improvement over his first suggestion of [name]Marius[/name] [name]IMO[/name]) but are they too out there? [name]William[/name] was his father’s name. [name]Malcolm[/name] is one we both like. My maiden name is [name]Walker[/name] - is this usable as a FN or MN?
[name]Malcolm[/name] - (nn [name]Mac[/name]) - My favorite. I love this name. [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Walker[/name] or [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Fitzwilliam[/name] would work since the [name]Fitz[/name] breaks things up like a second middle would.
[name]William[/name] (nn [name]Wim[/name]) - [name]William[/name] [name]Roderick[/name] [name]Lewis[/name] sounds great. I like [name]William[/name] [name]Walker[/name] [name]Lewis[/name] even more but I love alliteration.
[name]Roderick[/name] [name]William[/name] (nn [name]Rory[/name]) - I have to admit I like this. There seems to be too much made of the syllable [name]Rod[/name] in my opinion. [name]Rory[/name] is darling.
[name]Fitzwilliam[/name] - (nn [name]Fitz[/name]) - Sorry but this seems a little pretentious to me though [name]Fitz[/name] is cute. Middle name only!
[name]Roderick[/name] [name]William[/name] is really nice. I like it a lot.
What about [name]William[/name] [name]Roderick[/name]? I think it works.
I think [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Walker[/name] works great.
[name]Fitzwilliam[/name] is a bit much for me. It’s not horrific, but it would really depend on your culture. I feel like it might be a bit too ridiculous outside of the upper echelon of society.
[name]William[/name] [name]Walker[/name] - oh, I love this! I hadn’t even thought of putting [name]William[/name] and [name]Walker[/name] together!
[name]William[/name] [name]Roderick[/name] - I love this too! And we can use [name]Rory[/name] if we want!
[name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Fitzwilliam[/name] - Great idea for using [name]William[/name] and [name]Malcolm[/name] together!
I had no idea the handful of names we had listed could be moved around into so many wonderful combinations! We will probably take [name]Malcolm[/name] [name]Fitzwilliam[/name] and [name]William[/name] [name]Walker[/name] and/or [name]William[/name] [name]Roderick[/name] with us to see if Bump looks like a [name]Mac[/name], a [name]Wim[/name] or a [name]Rory[/name] unless one sticks better than the others after a few days.
Oh I love [name]Malcolm[/name] so very much. I wish I could get H on board, because that would be this kiddo’s name if I could decide on my own. And [name]Mac[/name] is just perfect.
