suggestions?

[platomapus.livejournal.com]

i have recently discovered a new name that i'm in love with. we already have a boy's name picked out but if we ended up having two boys instead of one boy and one girl i wanted to figure out a name. we've been thinking and thinking and my boyfriend doesnt necessarily love the name but i DO. i just cant think of a good middle name for it. i wanted to use my dad's name which is thomas but our last name will start with a T and i dont like two of the same letters back to back. so i'd like some nice suggestions. i dont like short or rhyming names and we're already using the name evans for our other boy's middle name so thats out of the question. i appreciate all of your suggestions and apologize if i dont reply to everyone!

and the name isssssss
connor

Well I was going to say Connor James but I don't think that really fits your no short names thing. What about Connor Benjamin, Connor Nicholas, or Conner William? Those are just names that I think sound good with it, I do like Connor Thomas but I can understand not using it if your last name starts with a T.

its funny that you suggest benjamin and nicholas because i dated a benjamin in high school and his brother's name was nicholas! haha. those are definitely out of the question. but thanks! i'm not too sure about connor william...i dont really like generic names...i like something a little different unless its coming from my family which is why i like connor thomas but i just cant do C.T.T!

my boyfriend's grandfather's name is harley and i was thinking maaaaybe connor harley? but ehh...it makes me fee l like a biker, hahaha.

Haha that's funny that I suggested those, then. Yeah, I wouldn't really use William unless it had a family meaning as it is rather generic. I do like Connor Harley, and I really like Connor Thomas, too bad it doesn't work!

i really like connor thomas too! :[ boo! but you like connor harley? maybe if we spelled harley different...? but...then it wouldnt really have the family meaning...unless he spells it different, i'm not positive!

[kilobites.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't spell it differently unless he does, because then it would lose the family meaning, and also I can't think of another good spelling of Harley. Now normally I don't like the name Harley but if it has family meaning I think it's good, because it does flow well with Connor.

yeah, i would definitely not pick the name harley if it didnt have any meaning! i kind of like it though, i keep saying it and its growing on me!

someone also just suggested connor riley, what do you think about that one?

[kilobites.livejournal.com]

Again, it's not a name I would normally like, and I think it may be a little short, but I think it flows well.

i like riley but i always pictured it as a girls name for some reason and now that i've said it out loud a few times i'm leaning away from it because i dont like how connor riley. the 2 r's back to back, it blends together too much.

idk, i'm super picky when it comes to names!

Well I also noticed that you said your other choice for a boy was Wiley Evans so if you named your kid Connor Riley and had another kid named Wiley Evans...Wiley and Riley rhyme a little too much.

I am super picky when it comes to names too.

ahh! GOOD POINT!

i also realized that i DONT like connor riley because of the r's being back to back. when you said it out loud its like all mushed together.

me no likie!
