Ok so I posted before but I have to again...

My sister settled on a name for her son due in December, and it's DEFINITELY Amare Zamire (ahmaree zameer) and I really hate it, which she knows haha. So she said I could pick a second middle name if I want, and if she likes it she'll keep it (so he'll have 2 middle names which I know people aren't fond of but I couldn't care less, most people are almost always addressed strictly by their FN. I just wanted to help in naming him).

So the problem is, I can't think of any names that will go well with Amare Zamire (the name could go before or after Zamire, she doesn't care). Suggestions? I can be anything, as long as it flows well.

When I read the name for whatever reason I read it as "Ah-mari Za-mari."

I have no idea for another middle name, sorry.

Haha, I read it wrong too. I was thinking Ah-MEER Za-MEER.
Can I ask why she picked the names? Are they family names? I don't have a suggestion for a second middle name, but I think something one syllable would sound nice.


PS. Our kids will have 2 middle names. I totally don't think that is weird, a lot of families do it! :)

Look, I don't have any suggestions for a middle name, but please please please choose something just a little bit normal. Your nephew will love you for the rest of his life.

If my parents had named me Amare Bob Zamire, I'd be forever grateful to the nice aunt who came up with Bob.

The first thing that popped into my head is Zachariah. The kid can shorten it and go by Zac if he dislikes his first name ;)

Amare ____ Zamire

I think it needs another odd/unique name in between.

Something with a 'J' would give him the option of being called 'AJ'
Joel
Jed
Jay

or...
Tai
Leon
Taj
Lane

It really is quite hard to think of a name that wouldn't look out of place with these other two names. Good luck!

I don't mind either name, but I don't like how they sound together; they're a little too similar, you know? If I was her, I'd think of something without an "r" sound and break up the two names by putting it in the middle. But, even if she goes forward with Amare Zamir, it's her baby, her call. I'd be a good combo of hurt and angry if my sister told me she hated the name I'd decided upon. You can always think of a nickname for him!
