My husband and I are expecting our second baby boy in [name_f]September[/name_f]. We have gone through every boy name possible it seems and the only one we can agree on is [name_m]Grant[/name_m]. I like the name, don’t love it yet but I’m sure I will by the time he is here. I know I shouldn’t worry about what other people think, but I just get the feeling people are going to say we named our kids after Presidents or something, however, I have been told I am the only one that thinks that. Any reassuring thoughts for this unsure mama?
We are also having a hard time picking a middle name. We originally thought we would use one of our father’s first names ([name_u]Michael[/name_u] or [name_m]Thomas[/name_m]) but it leaves one of our families out. Our first son’s middle name is after both of our grandfathers that happened to have a similar first name. One thought is my husband’s middle name of [name_m]Patrick[/name_m]. Thanks for any advice!! 
Sounds like you are pretty set on your name for you little guy coming soon…with some hesitation. I would go with [name_m]Grant[/name_m] [name_u]Michael[/name_u] if you wanted to stick with the names mentioned because it just sounds really good together.
I just have a few suggestions 
on boy names that would sound amazing with [name_m]Jackson[/name_m] as an older brother…
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m], [name_m]Garrett[/name_m], [name_m]Isaiah[/name_m], [name_u]Jameson[/name_u], [name_m]Atticus[/name_m], [name_u]Linden[/name_u], [name_u]Bryce[/name_u], [name_u]Blake[/name_u], and [name_u]Evan[/name_u].
All of those names would sound amazing with the middle names you have picked out as well. Good luck picking the perfect name for your family!
[name_m]Grant[/name_m] is a fine name. I love it! Defiantly not president-like with Jackson at all ;). [name_m]Grant[/name_m] [name_u]Michael[/name_u] is a great combo but if you are worried about leaving a family out, you could give him two middle names? [name_m]Grant[/name_m] [name_u]Michael[/name_u] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] sounds great. But if you only want one middle, [name_m]Grant[/name_m] [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] is lovely too.
Here are some suggestions:
FN’s:
[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] nn [name_m]Benji[/name_m] or [name_m]Ben[/name_m]
[name_m]Benji[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ben[/name_m]
[name_u]Owen[/name_u]
[name_m]Hamish[/name_m]
[name_m]Amos[/name_m]
[name_m]Harrison[/name_m] nn [name_m]Harry[/name_m]
[name_m]Callum[/name_m]
[name_u]Noah[/name_u]
[name_m]Miles[/name_m] nn [name_m]Milo[/name_m] (one of my favourites)
[name_u]Bryce[/name_u]
[name_u]Blake[/name_u]
[name_m]Atticus[/name_m]
MN’s: [name_m]Caspar[/name_m], [name_u]Ryan[/name_u], [name_u]Jordan[/name_u], [name_u]Cameron[/name_u], [name_m]Reuben[/name_m], Benjamim, [name_m]William[/name_m], [name_u]Jameson[/name_u], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], [name_m]Will[/name_m]
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] I helped and good luck!
I think [name_m]Jackson[/name_m] and [name_m]Grant[/name_m] make a great sibset! For a middle name I think you could use both [name_u]Michael[/name_u] and [name_m]Thomas[/name_m]. If you don’t want him to have two middle names [name_m]Patrick[/name_m] would work fine.
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]William[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Zachary[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_u]Owen[/name_u]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Robert[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Daniel[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Peter[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Alan[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Mark[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Craig[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Garrett[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]David[/name_m]
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] & [name_m]Andrew[/name_m]
For the middle name issue you could try to bridge the two names. There’s [name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m] which has Aramaic origins like [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] but has a God related meaning like [name_u]Michael[/name_u] ([name_u]Michael[/name_u]: who is like god? [name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m]: gift of God). Or you could go double barrel and use both, in which case you might want a shorter first name, for which [name_m]Grant[/name_m] is perfect.
