My husband and I are expecting a boy in [name]November[/name]. I have always dreamed of calling my son [name]Samuel[/name]. It’s a family name and my favorite boy name in the world. Everyone loves it, except my husband. I have agreed to use it as his middle name instead of his first. I have found several names that I like, but he has vetoed everything. He is stuck on the name [name]Tyler[/name]. I think [name]Tyler[/name] is alright, but much too popular in our area. I have a very common name and hated being known as [name]Tiffany[/name] C. All through school. I don’t want that for my son. My husband doesn’t mind how common it is. We both like older southern names. Any ideas for antique names for my little boy? Something that goes with [name]Samuel[/name]?
What about [name]Silas[/name] or [name]Cyrus[/name]? Your husband might like the shared long i sound at the beginning from [name]Tyler[/name].
Oh, [name]Samuel[/name] is so handsome! It’s too bad about it being a MN, but I do think it works so well there, it works with so many names. I definitely wouldn’t give in to [name]Tyler[/name]–it’s a fine name, but it feels really dated to me. I know a lot of Tylers my age or just a bit younger. What about:
[name]Henry[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Evan[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]/[name]Ethan[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Holden[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Isaac[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Benjamin[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Nicholas[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Leo[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Levi[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Winston[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Declan[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]August[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Oliver[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Lincoln[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
Good luck!

All the best
