So I posted before, about our planned names for our future kids. The older boy's name would be Isaac Hyphen Gary H. Hyphen isn't a great name, but it's one my girlfriend was set on.

Recently, she brought up the name Arthur as a possibility. It was her grandfather's name, and I told her that if she'd exchange it for Hyphen, we could use it.

So what do you think? Which do you prefer? Isaac Arthur Gary H or Isaac Gary Arthur H? And if you like Hyphen better, then let me know--my girlfriend would love some company.

I prefer Isaac Gary Arthur. It has a nicer flow. Not a big fan of Hyphen, it reminds me of - and hyman. Not so good

Hyphen is awful. Seriously.

Isaac Arthur Gary is the better of the two, I think.

[lilacmermaid.livejournal.com]

Arthur, definitely. I think Isaac Gary Arthur sounds better.

Artur is far better than Hyphen. When I hear hyphen with a name it makes me think someone wants you to literally put a "-" in their name when you write it out or something...

I like Isaac Gary Arthur better, like the above commenters, i think it flows better.

I prefer Isaac Arthur Gary H.

I agree; "Hyphen" sounds completely idiotic. Issac and Arthur are both lovely names and Gary isn't bad, either, so I would go with any combination of those before even considering Hyphen!

I thought his name would be "Issac-Gary" and wondered why you spelled out hyphen. Whoops.

If you all do end up using that name, expect that to happen a lot.

Hyphen is horrible for all the reasons that the above users stated.

I don't like Arthur or Gary (Gary is a nickname only for me, and not even one I like), but considering the alternative, they're wonderful. =P I do love Isaac, and I think Isaac Gary Arthur flows better .

Hyphen??? that is terrible, plain and simple.

Gary is both my brother's middle name (and I'm very close to my brother) and our great-uncle's name. Apparently, our great-uncle was a wonderful man, but was killed in a car accident when he was in his twenties.
