Hi, my parents have finally decided the name for my baby brother his name is going to be Holden Harvey William West. What do you think of it?

I don't really like the "Holden Harvey" too many H's. If I was using all of these names, I would have gone with Holden William Harvey West.

Holden is a great name.
Reminds me of that movie with Jake Gyllenhaal and Jennifer Aniston.

What odd alliteration.

I don't not like it, it just seems a little peculiar to me. HHWW.

Holden is an awesome name. The book Catcher in the Rye is famous and it's main character's name is Holden. Middle names to me aren't as important is first names, and I think Holden could be really cool.

Holden is a VERY common brand of car here in Australia. So it isn't a name to me. I would rather it be Harvey William West. But since nobody else has mentioned Holden cars, and you're probably in America, maybe it will be a reasonably normal name over there.

Agreed, it's better than Crighton.

we don't have Holden cars, but the cars we do have we very often get kids named after, Mercedes, Lexus, etc...

sounds like a 1930's actor's name. i don't think it's terrible, just not my style.

I think the names are fine, but it kind of sounds like names of two different people. Holden Harvey and William West.

I like Holden West, but not the banter in between.

I don't really like it. Why the odd alliteration and two middle names?

I actually don't mind Holden, but it's the combonation of Holden Harvey William West. Holden ___ West would be ok. Maybe like Holden Daniel West or something. I just don't think the two H's and the two W's sound good.

Holden doesnt cound like a name to me... it doesnt bring much to mind. What would you call him as a short name, Hol? ehhh i dont like it much.
Harvey & William are fine though.
I like middle names that sound like the last name so i like the idea of the HHWW thing...it all flows well.

That's one of the reasons why my parents like it you can't shorten it, that's the reason why they called me Josie instead of Josephine.

I like it. I don't especially like Harvey, but I like how it sounds all together.

I'd drop the Harvey. I'm not a fan of double middle names. three names is enough for one kid! Holden William West. nice.
