[name_m]Hi[/name_m]! [name_f]My[/name_f] husband and I are expecting two boys. We plan to name one of them [name_m]Trey[/name_m], after my husband’s grandfather. But I don’t like that [name_m]Trey[/name_m] doesn’t look like a full name.
In general, we need a variant of the full name so that we can use [name_m]Trey[/name_m] as a diminutive. And we also need a name for his twin brother (the brother’s name should also preferably be shortened).
For Trey…
[name_m]Trey[/name_m] means three, so one possibility is that you could do a variation of your husband’s grandfather’s name and another family name, so he’s a ‘third’ in a way.
Otherwise…
[name_m]Treyvon[/name_m]
[name_m]Trevon[/name_m]
[name_m]Trevor[/name_m]
[name_m]Terrence[/name_m]
[name_f]Tracy[/name_f]
[name_m]Atreyu[/name_m]
[name_m]Treyton[/name_m] / Trayton
Trajan
[name_m]Traian[/name_m]
[name_m]Tristen[/name_m] / [name_m]Tristan[/name_m]
A brother to Trey…
[name_m]Malakai[/name_m] ‘Kai’
[name_m]Judah[/name_m] ‘Judah’
[name_m]Jarrett[/name_m] ‘Jett’
[name_m]Rockwell[/name_m] ‘Rocky’ ‘Wells’
[name_m]Wesley[/name_m] ‘Wells’
[name_m]Romeo[/name_m] ‘Rome’ ‘Ro’
[name_m]Beckett[/name_m] ‘Beck’ ‘Kit’
[name_m]Rafael[/name_m] ‘Rafa’ ‘Raf’
[name_m]August[/name_m] ‘Ozzie’
I also love the idea of Tristan/Tristen and [name_m]Treyton[/name_m]!
[name_m]Treynor[/name_m]
[name_m]Thackeray[/name_m]
[name_m]Tanner[/name_m]
[name_m]Thierry[/name_m]
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m]
You could also use a [name_m]Trey[/name_m] as a nickname for a first-middle combo
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m] Raymond/Reymond “Trey”
[name_m]Tanner[/name_m] [name_f]Rey[/name_f] “Trey”
[name_m]Thomas[/name_m] [name_m]Reynard[/name_m] “Trey”
[name_m]Tanner[/name_m] [name_m]Rhys[/name_m] “Trey”
For a brother:
[name_m]Thaddeus[/name_m] “Tad/Thad”
[name_m]Simeon[/name_m] “Sim”
[name_m]Solomon[/name_m] “Sol”
[name_m]Roderick[/name_m] “Rod/Rick”
[name_m]Jackson[/name_m] “Jack”
[name_m]Jason[/name_m] “Jase”
[name_m]Bramwell[/name_m] “Bram”
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m] “Cal”
[name_m]Rafferty[/name_m] “Raff”
[name_m]Autry[/name_m], [name_m]Destry[/name_m] or anything else ending -try could give [name_m]Trey[/name_m] as a nickname.
[name_m]Terrence[/name_m] and [name_m]Tristen[/name_m] sound pretty good, thanks.
I like your idea of a nickname for the “first-middle combo”, but I’m not sure that I even like any male names starting with T. And so for the brother’s name, I like your version with [name_m]Bramwell[/name_m].

Tell me what you like and don’t like. I can think of more.
You mentioned you liked [name_m]Bram[/name_m] as a nickname with Tr.ey. Some ideas for how you could use more formal first and middle names that make sense as nicknames when combined.
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Reynard[/name_m] (Trey) and……
[name_m]Bronson[/name_m] [name_m]Ambrose[/name_m] (Bram)
[name_m]Broderick[/name_m] [name_m]Amall[/name_m] (Bram)
