[name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m]

I love a lot of these! [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m], [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m] (love [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m]! And the nn [name_m]Axl[/name_m] is pretty clever!), [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m], [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_u]Arlo[/name_u], and [name_m]Roarke[/name_m] [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] [name_u]Avery[/name_u]! I think they’re all great.

Thanks ladies!

Quick question, do you prefer [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] or [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m]?

Well, I’m all for [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] being used anywhere, haha, but I like your combos as you’ve had them. I like [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] and [name_m]Bear[/name_m] together, but [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] doesn’t seem as strong to me as [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m]. I would like to see [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m], or [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m], maybe? I still think I like [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] best, though.

Yeah, I know what you mean! [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] sounds really cute to me but lacks the traditional, classic vibe that [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] possesses. I think most of my other combo’s have quite strong, traditional middle names so I guess [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] should be the one I go with.

Would these be any better…
[name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m]
[name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Edward[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m]
[name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Atticus[/name_m]
[name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_u]Eden[/name_u] [name_u]Spencer[/name_u]

I love [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m]! I also like [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m], but not with [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] for some reason? I think I’d like [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Bear[/name_m], though, haha. I adore [name_u]Eden[/name_u], too, but for some reason, I don’t like it with [name_m]Bear[/name_m] and [name_u]Spencer[/name_u]. I think something like [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] [name_u]Eden[/name_u] would be nice, though. You can totally take [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] [name_u]Eden[/name_u] if you like. :]

I like [name_m]Thor[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_m]Adam[/name_m] and [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m] a lot, especially the latter. [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m] nn [name_m]Axl[/name_m] is a fantastic idea, by the way; [name_u]August[/name_u] ‘[name_m]Axl[/name_m]’ and [name_u]River[/name_u] would make the most smashing brother set. Are you a hard rock fan by any chance? :slight_smile:

Ha, I’m not actually a hard rock fan - quite the opposite but I like quirky names and [name_m]Axl[/name_m] just seems pretty cool to me!

I do really like [name_u]River[/name_u] and [name_u]August[/name_u] together. Is [name_u]River[/name_u] [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] too bland next to [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m]? [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] has always been my number one boy’s name but its just way too popular for me right now, while [name_u]James[/name_u] is a family name.

I love [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] however I don’t see it aging well. [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_u]Barrett[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] nickname “[name_m]Bear[/name_m]”?

I love [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m], [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] and [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_u]Arlo[/name_u], I think we have pretty similar naming styles :slight_smile:

I think I like all of them. I voted for [name_m]Bear[/name_m] because I like the middles and the shortness which fits with the other favourites.

I’m not so keen on [name_m]Bear[/name_m] and [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] together, given [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] means bear. It just seems like a bit of a weird double up to me, but maybe you enjoy that.

I like [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m] best.

You know what? That didn’t even cross my mind about [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] meaning ‘[name_m]Bear[/name_m]’. [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] is a family name for me and I would love to use it as a first name but it’s pretty trendy in the UK and doesn’t completely fit with my other favourite names. I also really like [name_m]Barnaby[/name_m] with the nickname [name_m]Bear[/name_m] but again it doesn’t work for me.

I’m considering changing it to [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] or [name_m]Bear[/name_m] [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] - although not sure which is my favourite!

[name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] or [name_m]Roarke[/name_m] [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] [name_u]Avery[/name_u] are both so handsome.

So this has been a bit of a struggle in trying to eliminate names but I think I’ve decided to lose [name_u]Loki[/name_u] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_u]Arlo[/name_u], [name_u]Aubrey[/name_u] [name_u]Elias[/name_u] [name_m]Maxwell[/name_m], [name_m]Roarke[/name_m] [name_m]Samuel[/name_m] [name_u]Avery[/name_u], [name_m]Bodhi[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_u]Arlo[/name_u] and [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] as I’m just not loving them as much. I do adore [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] and [name_m]Roarke[/name_m] but I don’t think they are right for me but I would love to see them used! I’m torn on [name_m]Thor[/name_m], as it fits perfectly with my favourite but can I picture myself with a little [name_m]Thor[/name_m]? I’m not so sure…

That leaves me with [name_u]August[/name_u], [name_m]Bear[/name_m], [name_m]Leif[/name_m] and [name_m]Thor[/name_m] right now, and I’m loving them all. [name_u]August[/name_u] [name_m]Xavier[/name_m] [name_m]Louis[/name_m] is the perfect combo, while the others are just so quirky and totally my style.

If I don’t use [name_m]Bear[/name_m], I would like to incorporate it somewhere but I can’t think how? I now know that family name [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] means bear but if it’s not used as a first name would this seem a weird nickname?

Im sorry but [name_u]Arlo[/name_u] [name_m]William[/name_m] [name_m]Thor[/name_m] would be amazing!!

Otherwise, my favourites would be [name_m]Thor[/name_m] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_m]Adam[/name_m] and [name_u]Loki[/name_u] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] [name_u]Arlo[/name_u]
