So I just had my twins on [name]Wednesday[/name] which means that I won’t be back on here asking for help for at least a three months, just kidding, ;). But my friend [name]Kate[/name] ([name]Katherine[/name] [name]June[/name]) and her hubby [name]Connor[/name] [name]James[/name] are expecting their fifth boy, we make 'em big out here in the country! And I know, five boys in a row! She isn’t on Nameberry yet but don’t freight, she’ll be making one soon and come on to comment. Their 4 boys have beautiful names and [name]Kate[/name] says she is looking for a name to match and preferable no more than 3 syllables. And they realize they have biblical names but its not something they planned, neither were the one syllable middle names. Their last name is W @ 1 t 0 n. Their boys are:
[name]Alec[/name] [name]James[/name]
[name]Silas[/name] [name]Gale[/name]
[name]Dashiell[/name] [name]West[/name]
[name]Elliot[/name] [name]Grey[/name]
Their top names right now are:
[name]Archer[/name]
[name]Atticus[/name]
[name]Julian[/name]
[name]Miles[/name]*
[name]Nolan[/name]
[name]Avery[/name]
[name]Levi[/name]
[name]Kai[/name]
[name]Kate[/name]'s favorite is [name]Kai[/name] but she doesn’t know if it fits and [name]Connor[/name]'s favorite is [name]Julian[/name] but [name]Kate[/name] doesn’t love it.
You Berries helped me, can you please help her?! I’m getting her on here very soon, as soon as she finishes painting the new nursery!
[name]Archer[/name] or [name]Julian[/name] fits best in my opinion. [name]Kai[/name] really does not. Her other names are strong and Handsome and [name]Kai[/name] just seems trendy next to them. [name]Archer[/name] is my fav!
[name]Kate[/name] here. @boyandgirl: really?! I’m surprised too! I always thought [name]Archer[/name] was very trendy and [name]Kai[/name] was a solid, more classic name just like [name]Grace[/name]. But that’s why I’m here! I need opinions!
Their last name is W @ 1 t 0 n. Their boys are:
[name]Alec[/name] [name]James[/name]
[name]Silas[/name] [name]Gale[/name]
[name]Dashiell[/name] [name]West[/name]
[name]Elliot[/name] [name]Grey[/name]
I think [name]Miles[/name] [name]Connor[/name] would be lovely
Or
[name]Grant[/name] [name]Julian[/name] - [name]Grant[/name] is absolutely timeless and ever so handsome.
[name]Jules[/name] [name]Malachi[/name] - [name]Jules[/name] [name]Walton[/name] I love [name]Jules[/name] he is so debonair and flamboyant
[name]Malachi[/name] [name]Abram[/name] - [name]Kai[/name] [name]Walton[/name] I think that [name]Malachi[/name] is the best way to give him a more substantial name and get the nn of [name]Kai[/name]
[name]Jack[/name] [name]Ryder[/name] - [name]Jack[/name] [name]Walton[/name] The ultimate man’s name
[name]Flynn[/name] [name]Andrew[/name] - [name]Flynn[/name] [name]Walton[/name] Stand out modern style name
[name]Miles[/name] [name]Alexander[/name] - one of my all time favourite combos
Everett Bowen nn Rhett this one is so handsome only thing is brother Elliott shares the same initial.
Drew Mackenzie Walton - Drew Walton I have always liked Drew it is a handsome name.
[name]Archer[/name]- don’t mind the sound of this name but v trendy.
[name]Atticus[/name]- lovely, strong name (has potential to become trendy too but much less so than surname names, I think)
[name]Julian[/name]- good classic, prefer [name]Julius[/name] myself
[name]Miles[/name]*- nice
[name]Nolan[/name]- okay
[name]Avery[/name]- sounds more feminine and trendy again
[name]Levi[/name]- not a favourite of mine
[name]Kai[/name]- awful- v downmarket in the UK. Reminds me of the footballer [name]Wayne[/name] [name]Rooney[/name] who has a son with this name.
[name]Miles[/name], [name]Atticus[/name] or [name]Julian[/name] would be my votes.
I think [name]Levi[/name], [name]Nolan[/name], or [name]Miles[/name] fits very well. I think you have a very handsome but eclectic sib set going on! [name]IMO[/name] [name]Levi[/name] fits very well with [name]Silas[/name], [name]Nolan[/name] and [name]Miles[/name] fit very well with [name]Alec[/name] and [name]Elliot[/name], and [name]Julian[/name] fits with [name]Dashiell[/name] (but I’m not loving [name]Julian[/name] either).
I love the one syll mn choices! I think it ties everything together, and I especially love the word names. But maybe [name]Kai[/name] could be a mn option?
Thank you for the combinations and advice! You guys are the best!
[name]Miles[/name] [name]Connor[/name]- We have been throwing this around, but does it sound bland in comparison to his brothers?
[name]Grant[/name] [name]Julian[/name] - I’d rather [name]Julian[/name] [name]Grant[/name]. I do like both names but I just don’t love either.
[name]Jules[/name] [name]Malachi[/name] - [name]Jules[/name] seems very nicknamey to me. And also a bit feminine. [name]Malachi[/name] I don’t like.
[name]Malachi[/name] [name]Abram[/name] - I don’t like either of these names even with the prospect of the nn [name]Kai[/name].
[name]Jack[/name] [name]Ryder[/name] - I love [name]Jack[/name], but [name]Grace[/name]'s oldest is [name]Jackson[/name] so that wouldn’t work. [name]Ryder[/name] is not my style.
[name]Flynn[/name] [name]Andrew[/name] - I have friends with a [name]Finn[/name] and [name]Andrew[/name], and I just am not a fan of [name]Flynn[/name] though I do love [name]Andrew[/name].*
[name]Miles[/name] [name]Alexander[/name] - I really love the sound of this one. It is so regal, but is it bland in comparison like [name]Miles[/name] [name]Connor[/name]?
[name]Everett[/name] [name]Bowen[/name]- No thank you.
[name]Drew[/name] [name]Mackenzie[/name] [name]Walton[/name]- One of the main reasons I wouldn’t use [name]Andrew[/name] is that I do not at all like the nn [name]Drew[/name]. I like [name]Mackenzie[/name] but I know many little girls with the name.*
And I think [name]Kai[/name] probably will end up in the middle.
*[name]Andrew[/name] was on our long list but because of it’s blandness compared to [name]Alec[/name], [name]Silas[/name], [name]Dashiell[/name] and [name]Elliot[/name], plu the nn [name]Drew[/name] we took it off.
[name]Alec[/name] is 6 and he really wants the new baby to be a [name]Kai[/name] to, and much to [name]Connor[/name]'s dismay I love the name so I think our baby will be ______ [name]Kai[/name] [name]Walton[/name]. But that also means I have to let go of [name]Miles[/name] [name]Connor[/name] and [name]Miles[/name] [name]Alexander[/name]. We will see. If we end up going with [name]Miles[/name] I don’t know if we will go with [name]Kai[/name].
Thank you! I love Peter and Alden/Arden.
Milo Kai- Miles with the nickname Milo, not loving Kai with Miles though.
Geraint Kai- Definitely not.
Graham Kai- My friends son is Graham, though I do love the name.
Hugo Kai- Don’t like Hugo.
Ivor Kai- Not my style.
Alden Kai- I think this is my favorite, I really love Alden and Arden.
Owen Kai- My close cousin has an Ewan.
Thomas Kai- Thomas is a very nice name but I just don’t love it.
Peter Kai- There is something about Peter that I love. Maybe I’ll put it on the list.
Theo Kai- Another one of my friends has a Theo!
Carlo Kai- No thank you.
I like the names you have chosen for your sons. Each son’s name has a different ending so it would be cool to have something different for #5 too.
Of the names on your list, I like [name]Nolan[/name] best. Or any name that ends in -an. Nice compliment. [name]Julian[/name] sounds good too. [name]How[/name] about something like [name]Carson[/name] or [name]Peyton[/name]? Or ending with m…something like [name]Liam[/name]?
Too bad one of the son’s middle names is [name]Grey[/name] - I think this sounds great with the rest of the names. I’m trying to think of other names that end with the -ay sound…
or what about [name]Henry[/name]? I love [name]Matteo[/name] too with your group too.
I don’t think that there is anything bland about [name]Miles[/name] [name]Connor[/name] it is handsome, it has flow, it works well with the boys.
I am the mother of a [name]Miles[/name] and his name has always stood out from the crowd. I think it is a rather bold choice, and I absolutely love his name and I love [name]Connor[/name] too and in your case I am sure that Dad would be thrilled to be included in the mix. I don’t think [name]Connor[/name] is at all dated in case you think because it is Dad’s name it must be, but I think it is very TODAY. I can’t think of any reasons why this combo should not be at the top of your list.
I also think [name]Elliott[/name] and [name]Connor[/name] are the same style. I think [name]Alec[/name], [name]Elliott[/name] and [name]Dash[/name] are the closest in style to [name]Miles[/name] and it works with [name]Silas[/name] because one has the z sound and the other the soft s sound.
I dont think [name]Connor[/name] is dated but I worry [name]Miles[/name] [name]Connor[/name] just doesn’t seem as different or special as [name]Dashiell[/name] [name]West[/name] does, for example. Though I just love [name]Miles[/name]. And [name]Julian[/name], I think I’m warming up but I know girls named [name]Julia[/name] nn [name]Jules[/name] which makes me wonder if [name]Julian[/name] would become [name]Jules[/name].
