I had settled on [name]Asher[/name] [name]Patrick[/name] [name]Gray[/name] as my [name]Asher[/name] combo a while ago, and while I liked it, I still had some doubts about it, but I thought I’d grow to love it. For the most part, I have, but I still have some lingering doubts, and I’ve come up with some combos I think I might really like (might even prefer to [name]Asher[/name] [name]Patrick[/name] [name]Gray[/name]), and I’m curious as to others’ opinions.
[name]Gray[/name] honors my grandmother; [name]Zane[/name] honors my dad and brother; [name]Edmund[/name] is in honor of the Chronicles of [name]Narnia[/name]. [name]Rhys[/name] doesn’t honor anyone outright, but all my siblings and my dad all have “R” alliteration with our surname, so I like that [name]Rhys[/name] would do that, too, and the initials “R” and “E” honor my sister’s initials in particular. [name]George[/name] really has no significance other than I love it as a second MN.
As previously stated in a previous response, I love “[name]Asher[/name].” (See [name]Asher[/name] [name]Brown[/name] [name]Durand[/name] on Wikipedia). And I love [name]Zane[/name]. I’d go with with either of the “[name]Asher[/name]…[name]Zane[/name]” names.
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Gray[/name] – While I prefer the [name]Elliott[/name], This is a great combo! I like it more than [name]Patrick[/name]. Very handsome and spunky
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]George[/name] – This is sort of so-so for me. I like it, but not as much as other or as [name]Asher[/name] [name]Patrick[/name] [name]Gray[/name]
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Zane[/name] – OH Very cool and handsome! I absolutely love this!
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Rhys[/name] – very nice but I like other more
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Edmund[/name] [name]George[/name] – I just don’t like [name]George[/name] in any of these combos. [name]Asher[/name] [name]Edmund[/name] is great though
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Edmund[/name] [name]Zane[/name] – Very handsome and stylish.
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Edmund[/name] [name]Gray[/name] – This is my favorite [name]Asher[/name] ___ [name]Gray[/name] combo!
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Edmund[/name] [name]Rhys[/name] – very nice and handsome, but not as good as others
I would put them in this order (including [name]Asher[/name] [name]Patrick[/name] [name]Gray[/name]):
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Gray[/name] is my favorite. Very handsome! [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Rhys[/name] and [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Zane[/name] are 2nd and 3rd, respectively. All very strong names!
I prefer [name]Asher[/name] [name]Patrick[/name] [name]Gray[/name]. I love [name]Gray[/name] and it is especially nice b/c of the family connection for you. I am a traditionalist when it comes to boys names so given the more unusal [name]Asher[/name] I think it is nice to pair it with the solid [name]Patrick[/name]. I also love [name]Elliott[/name] but I fear this name will eventually end up in the girls category.
I find myself leaning more toward [name]Elliot[/name] over [name]Edmund[/name]–while I like both, and I like the [name]Narnia[/name] association for [name]Edmund[/name], [name]Edmund[/name]'s probably my least favorite Pevensie ([name]Peter[/name]'s my true favorite; I just don’t know how to fit [name]Peter[/name] in. I like the idea of [name]Asher[/name] _____ [name]Peter[/name], but I’m afraid that’s too many "er"s). I love that [name]Elliot[/name]'s a form of [name]Elijah[/name], which has always been one of my favorite Biblical characters. Speaking of which, thoughts on [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elijah[/name] [name]Zane[/name]/[name]Gray[/name]/[name]Rhys[/name]? I thought [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elijah[/name] might be too Biblical, but I do like it.
I’m also tossing around the idea of [name]Asher[/name] [name]Ezra[/name] [name]Theodore[/name], although I do have several issues with it.
I think if I changed it right now, [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Zane[/name] and [name]Asher[/name] [name]Rhys[/name] [name]Elliot[/name]/[name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Rhys[/name] are my favorites, but I’m not sure about giving up [name]Asher[/name] [name]Patrick[/name]–I have liked it for quite some time now.
I was going to say that I find [name]Asher[/name] [name]Edmund[/name] [name]Gray[/name] incredibly dashing, but I see you’re leaning toward [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name]. In that case, [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Zane[/name] is my favorite. [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] feels sort of tame, but [name]Zane[/name] adds a bit of pizzazz.
[name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Gray[/name] or [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Zane[/name] are my two faves, and I love that they each honor a loved one as well. For me, that’s always a plus!
[name]LOVE[/name] [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Grey[/name] and [name]Asher[/name] [name]Elliot[/name] [name]Zane[/name] - great combo with spunk!
I think I actually still like [name]Asher[/name] [name]Patrick[/name] [name]Gray[/name] the most. I really like the name [name]Patrick[/name], but not [name]Pat[/name] or [name]Rick[/name] and in the middle spot it remains [name]Patrick[/name], no nicknames. I also like the soft ‘a’ sound in both [name]Asher[/name] and [name]Patrick[/name] and think it flows so well together. I know some people would disagree with the similar sounding vowels, but I think it’s great!
