I like it! I remember that a [name]Christian[/name] singer used that exact combo a while back–I think it was Bebo [name]Norman[/name]? That might not mean anything to you, haha; I just remember seeing it already. [name]Just[/name] means it’s a good combo!

As for using [name]Smith[/name]… I like it, as a FN, especially since it was my grandfather’s surname (he had no real FN or MN, just two initials, so he was either L.B. or he was [name]Smitty[/name]). I think the nn [name]Smitty[/name] is super cute and I love the idea of using it in honor of my grandparents. However, I don’t really like it as a MN (too surnamey, imo–something like [name]Everett[/name] [name]Smith[/name] [name]Richmond[/name] sounds like a double-barrel surname with no MN instead of a whole combo), and I don’t love it enough to use it as a FN. If I found the right combo I MIGHT use it as a second MN, something like [name]Charles[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Smith[/name] [Surname] or something. Although I don’t like that combo very much so I wouldn’t use it. haha. But I would love to see someone else with a little [name]Smith[/name]! I also know of someone else who used [name]Smith[/name] [name]Elisha[/name]–I thought that was a pretty cool combo, too.

Thanks for all of the feedback. I hadn’t considered [name]Smitty[/name] as the nn though I don’t think it is necessarily a bad thing though I think [name]Smith[/name] seems short enough where not sure [name]Smitty[/name] would be inevitable but perhaps. I do think [name]Smith[/name] is a handsome name personally and although I like [name]North[/name] it just doesn’t give me the same feeling but thank you so much for the suggestion. I am not currently pregnant but hope to be in the next couple of years and as a name nerd I am always thinking :slight_smile: I’m sure you all understand! My other children are [name]Edie[/name] and [name]Isaac[/name]

[name]Love[/name] it!!!

it will always remind me of [name]Smith[/name] from Sex and theCity…[name]Samantha[/name] made that name up by the way. I knew a cat named [name]Smith[/name]. Unless it is a family surname with some meaning, I think it is ridiculous.

Yes, I am aware of Sex and the City but the name isn’t exclusive to that show (as clearly [name]Samantha[/name] didn’t make up that name) or, to a cat that you happen to know but I did ask so thanks for the feedback…
