My parents are going to be adopting another child within the next few months. Right now they are stuck between two names: Riley Matthias James or Wesley Matthias James. (The sibset will be: Giulia, Tristan, Megan, Wade, Wyatt. Tristan will also be adopted within the next few months.) Opinions?

Wesley, definitely! I really dislike Riley, and I think it's trendier-sounding than the other names in the sibset, so Wesley fits better.

I like wesley :) and props to your parents for adopting. I really admire that and hope to become an adoptive parent myself someday.

I like Riley bettere here, because they already have close names like Wade and Wyatt.
I love Matthias!

I agree with Riley over Wesley for this reason.

I like Wesley, but I'm kind of leaning towards Riley because there are already two "W" names there...

I also like the name Riley btw, just not as much as I used to- it seems to be really popular on girls now.

I prefer Wesley. Riley is cute on a child, but doesn't work all that well on a grown man.

ooh. i didn't even think of that. it's hard for me to imagine someone over like, 25, being named riley.

i'd go with wesley. while i do like the sound of riley, it is seriously EVERYWHERE. wesley is a lot more unique and classic, whereas riley is super common and trendy.
