Adrien Xavier

Gabriel Matthew

Andrew Xavier

Ian Matthew or Ian Andrew

Malachi Matthew

Tristan Landon

Morgan Matthew

Patrick Bailey

Oliver Patrick



What do you think of any of those? Anything too cruel? Can anyone think of nice permutations of those names that I haven't listed?

Matthew is my brother's name, and John is my father's name, although I prefer the Scottish version (Ian) if I'm going to use it.

They're nice names by themselves, but I wouldn't pair Malachi with Matthew (I'm just not a fan of most alliteration in names) or Tristan with Landon because they both end the same and that sounds a bit strange.

ditto

They're all great names, would hesitate over Morgan though. It seems to have 'gonee to the girls' (although I still adore it for a boy)

I'm not a fan of the name Xavier. But all of the other names you've listed are great. I especially like Patrick Bailey. Or Oliver Patrick.

Ditto on Morgan, its pretty much a girls name now. I like Malachi a lot, but I wouldnt go with it. Its too odd, and the boy would probably be made fun of.

I really like Ian Matthew. Morgan Matthew is nice, too, but it's given to so many girls nowadays that I'd be a bit hesitant about using it for a boy. :(

Adrien Xavier -Not my style..

Gabriel Matthew -Ok.

Andrew Xavier -I love the first name Andrew [nickname 'Drew'] but Xavier is just not my style..

Ian Matthew or Ian Andrew -Ian Matthew is a great name. I love it. Ian Andrew doesn't flow quite as well.. too many vowel sounds I think.

Malachi Matthew -Not my style..

Tristan Landon -They both end in a similar sound.. doesn't sound right.

Morgan Matthew -Not a fan of the double M sound.

Patrick Bailey -I think I would like Bailey Patrick better actually.

Oliver Patrick -Not my style..

I like most of them, maybe not all the pairings. I've never understood this recent thing with Malachi, I really dislike the name, yet it's so popular. Tristan is a special favorite, we have it picked out as a boy's name for our next child.

I like the name Malachi but I could never name a kid that b/c it always makes me think of the head honcho kid in Children of the Corn. Evil, bwah ha ha ha.

I particularly like Patrick Bailey. Bailey isn't my style so much, but the pairing works very well.

If you really liked morgan, you could use John Morgan (and call him the full name). I knew a guy with that name and I have always thought it was cute.

I like all of the names except Tristan Landon-since they both endings sound the same it's kinda awkward but I like both names if paired with something else. Tristan Alexander is my son's name...

Malachi doesn't go very well with Matthew, perhaps pair Malachi with a different name, or switch the order they are in. Matthew Malachi, sounds better than Malachi Matthew does, in my humble opinion.

here are some other variations to consider:

Matthew Oliver
Patrick Morgan
Oliver Morgan
Patrick Ian
Xavier Andrew
Matthew Ian

I love the names Adrien, Gabriel, Ian, Malachi, Andrew, Patrick, and Oliver. My favorite combinations are Adrien Xavier, Gabriel Matthew, Ian Matthew, and Oliver Patrick. I like your taste in names. =)
