Hello again! Nice to see you back on the forums.

My favourite out of the three is [name_m]Leonel[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m], because I think it flows the best out of all of them. Also, they’re both just really great, strong names.

My second favourite is [name_m]Yannick[/name_m] [name_m]Leonel[/name_m], again because I like the flow of it. It’s really nice to pair off a ‘harsher’ sounding name like [name_m]Yannick[/name_m] with a softer one like [name_m]Leonel[/name_m].

I would put [name_m]Leonel[/name_m] [name_m]Kilian[/name_m] last, because I think it’s a little more difficult to say, with all those 'L’s in there. But I still think the flow is okay and it isn’t too clunky.

However, I think all three combos work well and whichever one you choose, your son will have a great name! Thanks for asking for our help :slight_smile:

So good to have an update. Of the three combinations, [name_m]Leonel[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] gets my vote. I think that this spelling of [name_u]Lionel[/name_u] works best for how you like it pronounced, and [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] makes for a good, solid middle.

[name_m]Leonel[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] gets my vote.

I still really like [name_m]Yannick[/name_m] [name_u]Lionel[/name_u] (from your previous post).

My second vote is [name_m]Leonel[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m].

So glad to see this update! Out of three solid choices, my favorite by far is [name_m]Leonel[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m]!

[name_m]Leonel[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] is extremely handsome!

Hmm I like both [name_m]Leonel[/name_m] and [name_m]Yannick[/name_m], but I am I have to pick [name_m]Yannick[/name_m] as I don’t like [name_m]Leo[/name_m]. Of course many love [name_m]Leo[/name_m] and that may be a plus for you

Thank you everybody for your comments! It is good to hear different perspectives. The jury is still out there. My wife likes [name_m]Yannick[/name_m] a little better, and I prefer [name_m]Leonel[/name_m]. We are hoping that our sonogram next week will give as a clue, which name matches his facial expression better :slight_smile:

I like [name_m]Yannick[/name_m] [name_u]Lionel[/name_u]. It’s kind of out there, but it’s fun.
I think [name_m]Leonel[/name_m] is too close to [name_u]Lionel[/name_u] for me, and it’s not a name I would think of if you told me your nickname was [name_m]Leo[/name_m]. but you have great taste in names!

Thank you everybody for your insightful comments!
I think we settled on [name_m]Yannick[/name_m] as the first name. My personal favorite was [name_m]Leonel[/name_m], but my wife, my 4 year old son, my parents and my in-laws liked [name_m]Yannick[/name_m] better. And I have to admit, it s fun to say :slight_smile:
Anyway, I will start a new threat (and poll) with [name_m]Yannick[/name_m] and different middle name options - after settling on the three combinations here, we opened up that can of worms again :slight_smile:

[name_u]Lionel[/name_u] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] is a more traditional choice than [name_m]Leonel[/name_m] [name_m]Joseph[/name_m]
