I am due in 2 weeks and this is the only name my hubby and I can agree on.  He will be Harvey Aaron.  My husband really likes it but I'm not too sure.  What do you think?

Don't like it i'm afraid.
It's a little.. thuggish? That might just be associations from England though.

I love Harvey; Harvey Aaron wouldn't be my first choice, but it's a nice name:)

I like it, and I think it flows nicely.

Ugh, I hate the name Harvey. Aaron Harvey is much nicer IMO.

I think it flows fine, but I'm really not a fan of the name Harvey.

I can't stand Harvey.

Aaron is excellent.

I like Harvey, dislike Aaron greatly.

I'd invert it to Aaron Harvey. I guess I'm trying to think of a kid named Harvey go through high school.

I have to agree with the fact that a kid would have a rough time going through school with the name Harvey... I don't really like the name Harvey at all actually...Aaron is nice though.

I don't like Harvey at all. Too many old man conotations. It's not terrible but it's one of those names that makes someone seem aged before their time. Though, with Huck, Hank, and Harry as possible nicknames it isn't so bad.

I'd go with Aaron Harvey, though, if Harvey HAS to be in there. I'd just nix it all together and figure something else out.

The same way they can be justified for Henry.

I don't really like or dislike it. But Aaron Harvey is better, in my opinion.

Harvey screams used car salesman to me for some reason. I don't know what kinds of names you like but here are some suggestions. Either way, the person makes the name, not the other way around so if you guys like it, go with it. Congratulations on your son!

Dominic Aaron Collins
Ezra Aaron Collins
Elijah Aaron Collins
Foster Aaron Collins
Gabriel Aaron Collins
Joshua Aaron Collins
James Aaron COllins
Jonas Aaron Collins
Latham Aaron Collins
Micah Aaron Collins
Mathias Aaron Collins
Rhys Aaron Collins
Spencer Aaron Collins
Thomas Aaron Collins
Zachary Aaron Collins

Ok, maybe its because its a Saturday night, but I just realized that Harvey Collins is a combination two famous drinks - the Harvey Wallbanger and the Tom Collins!

My first suggestion would probably be Henry. It's relatively similiar to Harvey but doesn't have quite as many critics. I think it flows a lot better than Harvey does with Aaron, too.

I've been trying to get a feel for your style so here are a few alternative ideas:
Milo
Ethan
Edgar
Roger
Nigel
Derek
John
Grant
Neil
Oliver
Nathan
Maxwell
Edward
Joshua
Caleb
Logan
Winston
Walter
Luke
Brian
Benton

I love Harvey... and it's funny because my SO wants to name our future child Henry and I was like, oooh, I like Harvey better... and the last name is Collins =] I'm not sure if I like it with Aaron, it's kind of soft?

Has he always liked the name Harvey? You don't need your child to have a trendy name. You need your child to have a name that suits your tastes and your family. If you like it, go for it.

If I met your child, already named, I would think it was a cute name.

I like Aaron, but's like Nate. It's everywhere. Harvey is not.

Is Harvey trendy now? That's sad... it makes me think of the movie with James Stewart.

I don't like the name Harvey personally, but I feel your pain when it comes to agreeing on names. My hubby and I could NOT agree on a boys name for our little one who's due in 8 weeks. Luckily, we just found out that it's a girl, and we easily agreed on a girl's name.

it's not a bad name. I prefer Aaron to Harvey, though.

I'm wondering how it's "agreed on" if you're not really sure about it...

I'm not big on Harvey, and I don't really like the blend of the names. I do love Aaron though. :)

Aaron has grown on me, but reeeeally don't like Harvey.
