Please give your opinion on these boy names

[name]Louis[/name] [name]Santiago[/name] (Pronounced [name]Lou[/name]-iss), [name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Santiago[/name] or [name]Oliver[/name] [name]Santiago[/name].

Also, do you think its weird to have and first name ending in S with a last name starting with an S? I think it blends well but I was just curious what you think. Thanks for your help! :slight_smile:

I think the spelling ā€˜[name]Louis[/name]ā€™ is so much nicer than ā€˜[name]Lewis[/name]ā€™, but for me, I think that [name]Oliver[/name] is the best name. It also flows into your surname nicely, and if you wanted a nickname, I think [name]Ollie[/name]/Oli is quite nice.
Iā€™ve never been a fan of [name]Gabriel[/name], I donā€™t know why. :slight_smile:

Thank you so much :slight_smile: [name]One[/name] little problem I am facing is that 3 of my best friends are all expecting boys in the next 3 months and their due dates are right before mine. [name]One[/name] expressed a few months ago that she liked [name]Oliver[/name]ā€¦and I like it too. I donā€™t want to bring it up to her again because I donā€™t want the name to become more attractive to her knowing that I want it. So, I need to be prepared with a SOLID back up in case she chooses it. As it stands now its # 1 is [name]Oliver[/name] [name]Santiago[/name] followed by #2 [name]Louis[/name] [name]Santiago[/name]. I really hope she doesnā€™t choose [name]Ollie[/name]!

I really like [name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Santiago[/name]! It sounds very handsome, and the nn [name]Gabe[/name] is really cute. [name]Oliver[/name] and [name]Louis[/name] are lovely, too, though. The only reason I didnā€™t vote for [name]Louis[/name] (which Iā€™ve been having a massive crush on lately!) is because I prefer the French pronunciation, LOO-ee, over the more English one (LOO-iss), which might solve your "S"s problem, too.

I wouldnā€™t mind if sounds ran into each other like thatā€“itā€™s something thatā€™s brought up in a lot of forums but I donā€™t think it actually sounds that bad, personally. I had [name]Arianne[/name] [name]Noelle[/name] _____ on my list for the longest time, and I had no issue with it. I think [name]Louis[/name] [name]Santiago[/name] sounds perfect, actually.

Good luck!

I never even thought about the nn [name]Gabe[/name]! Its soooo cute, [name]Gabe[/name] [name]Santiago[/name] is crazy adorable!

[name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Santiago[/name]! Thatā€™s a master combo.

I like [name]Gabriel[/name] best. I donā€™t think the double S from [name]Louis[/name] is bad, I just donā€™t really like [name]Louis[/name]. [name]Oliver[/name] isnā€™t my style either, but it is a nice name.

My vote goes to [name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Santiago[/name] too :slight_smile:

I think the repeating ā€œgā€ in [name]Gabriel[/name] [name]Santiago[/name] works nicely.

Thanks you so much ladies!

[name]Oliver[/name] is my favorite, but I have one, so that may be influencing my vote. I like [name]Gabriel[/name] a lot too. [name]One[/name] thing Iā€™ll say is that I do know two people who have first names that run into their last names (a [name]Mike[/name] K and a [name]Barbara[/name] A) and both of them canā€™t stand it. We considered [name]Isaac[/name] for our next son (our last name starts with a K sound) and both people told us not to. I guess I donā€™t have personal experience, but hearing from two completely separate people (who donā€™t know each other) that they donā€™t like this certainly gave us pause.
