third boy...help!!

Boy Names
1

We already have a [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m] and [name_m]Lucas[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]. Our boys go by [name_m]Josh[/name_m] and [name_m]Luke[/name_m]. So we’re looking for a name that has an easy 4 letter, single syllable nickname and that is timeless and classic without being dusty. Middle name will be either [name_m]Richard[/name_m] or [name_m]Charles[/name_m].

My top 3 are…
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m] [name_m]Richard[/name_m]. [name_m]Zac[/name_m]
[name_u]Dorian[/name_u] [name_m]Richard[/name_m] [name_m]Ian[/name_m] (hubby hates this)
[name_m]Ezekiel[/name_m] [name_m]Richard[/name_m] [name_m]Zeke[/name_m]

Hubbys favorite
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m] [name_m]Charles[/name_m] (but we can’t use this because of our last name)
[name_m]Charles[/name_m] (wont use because we can’t agree on a nickname.)

Help!

I love [name_m]Nathan[/name_m], [name_m]Abram[/name_m] and [name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] (already suggested)

I’ll add a few to the list
[name_m]Henry[/name_m] nn [name_m]Hank[/name_m]
[name_m]Reginald[/name_m] nn [name_u]Rex[/name_u]
[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u]

[name_m]Wesley[/name_m] nn [name_m]Wes[/name_m]
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] nn [name_m]Art[/name_m]

If we use [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] we will call him [name_m]Zac[/name_m]. And [name_u]Dorian[/name_u] would be called [name_m]Ian[/name_m]. I’m out of names with 4 letter nick names. ”

Thank you all for the suggestions! ”

[name_m]Joshua[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m], [name_m]Lucas[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] and [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] [name_m]Richard[/name_m] aka [name_m]Josh[/name_m], [name_m]Luke[/name_m] and [name_m]Zack[/name_m]
[name_m]Joshua[/name_m] [name_m]David[/name_m], [name_m]Lucas[/name_m] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] and [name_m]Ezekiel[/name_m] [name_m]Richard[/name_m] aka [name_m]Josh[/name_m], [name_m]Luke[/name_m] and [name_m]Zeke[/name_m]

I would go with [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] [name_m]Richard[/name_m]! [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] fits perfectly with [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] and [name_m]Lucas[/name_m], and both [name_m]Zack[/name_m] and [name_m]Zeke[/name_m] work as nicknames for [name_m]Isaac[/name_m]! It’s perfect!

I love [name_m]Isaac[/name_m], [name_u]Dorian[/name_u], and [name_m]Calvin[/name_m]. [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] seems like a natural fit with your boys, and it has one of my all-time favorite meanings. So that’s my vote!
