:o Okay berries… I’m due in one week… we finally settled on [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] for a first name but are at a loss for a middle name. Our toddler is [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_u]Kai[/name_u], so we are looking for a similar combo for boy #2 (traditional first name with short, interesting, more modern middle name).
I love [name_m]Levi[/name_m] as a middle name, but to rhyme-y with nn [name_m]Eli[/name_m] - [name_m]Eli[/name_m] [name_m]Levi[/name_m]. boo.
Others we are considering:
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Cole[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Myles[/name_m]
Would love your ideas for a middle name similar in style to [name_u]Kai[/name_u] or [name_m]Levi[/name_m] that sounds good with [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] and [name_m]Eli[/name_m]!
I actually think [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Levi[/name_m] is fantastic. When would he ever be called [name_m]Eli[/name_m] [name_m]Levi[/name_m]? I mean, my sister is almost exclusively called by her nn, [name_f]Becca[/name_f], but not once has she ever been referred to [name_f]Becca[/name_f] [name_f]Eileen[/name_f] instead of [name_f]Rebecca[/name_f] [name_f]Eileen[/name_f]. I don’t know of anyone who has ever been called by their nn + mn? I think [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Levi[/name_m] is a fun and cool combo, and [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] [name_u]Kai[/name_u] and [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Levi[/name_m] are perfection together. If you’re not convinced, though, I love the suggestions of [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] (eek!), [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Dane[/name_u], [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Jude[/name_u], [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Flynn[/name_u], [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Vale[/name_u], [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Zane[/name_m], and (be still my beating heart!) [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]. I’ve been in love with it ever since seeing @opheliaflora’s [name_u]Elliott[/name_u] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]. He’s so prim and proper, rugged and laid back. I would love to meet a little [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Jack[/name_m]! A few other ideas:
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Colt[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Owen[/name_u]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Zeke[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Gale[/name_u]

[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Gio[/name_m]/[name_m]Geo[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Koa[/name_m] (love! although I’m massively crushing on [name_m]Koa[/name_m] right now. It’s such a cool Hawaiian name, meaning “warrior”)
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Ianto[/name_m] (YAHN-toe. It’s a Welsh form of [name_m]John[/name_m])
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Noah[/name_u]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Micah[/name_u]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Christian[/name_m] (I guess this is out for some, as [name_m]Christian[/name_m] [name_m]Kane[/name_m] plays an [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] in the old TV show Leverage, but it’s been canceled for a while now, and I think [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Christian[/name_m] is super cool)
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Grant[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Rowan[/name_u]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Hugo[/name_m]

[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] Brave
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Valor[/name_m]
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m]
[name_m]Just[/name_m] want to throw [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Chase[/name_u] into the mix. It was the first one that came to mind, and I’m not sure it’s been mentioned!
[name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Jude[/name_u], [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Cade[/name_u], [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Kip[/name_m], [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_m]Grant[/name_m], and [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] are all lovely, as well!
