HELP! (again.. lol)

I made another list, but I'm still in need of middle names. I'm not so sure I'll go with the one I had picked out.
Give me your honest opinion of them, and tell me if you can think of a way to pick on them because of the name.


AIDEN BURKE
BASTIEN BURKE
BRYAN BURKE
CALLUM BURKE
DAMIEN BURKE
DAVID BURKE
JAMES BURKE
JASON BURKE
JOAQUIN BURKE
JONAH BURKE
JUDE BURKE
JULIAN BURKE
KEIRAN BURKE
LANDON BURKE
LEVI BURKE
LEIF BURKE
LIAM BURKE
MALACHY BURKE
MALACHI BURKE
MICAH BURKE
WILLIAM BURKE

In Scandinavia, Leif is pronounced life.

I really like Kieran but prefer the spelling Ciaran. Liam is one of my favourites.

I would pick Kieren or Liam Burke.

Is Burke a family surname for you (I know someone with the surname Burke and this is the first time I've see it as a given name)?

I just realized Burke IS your last name. Sorry about that. :)

Haha, really? I wonder if the original writer of The Omen knew that...

[identity profile] trissyd.livejournal.com 2006-07-02 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
"Levi James Burke" or "Julian Callum Burke"

[identity profile] miss-tee.livejournal.com 2006-07-02 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
liam burke is by far the best.

[identity profile] miss-tee.livejournal.com 2006-07-02 11:47 am (UTC)(link)

AIDEN BURKE - NMS, but I like the combo and Aiden is cute. I like it better spelled Aidan, though.
BASTIEN BURKE - don't like it. Bastien just sounds weird to me.
BRYAN BURKE - Love Bryan, but I like it spelled Brian better. Don't like the double Bs, though.
CALLUM BURKE - Don't like Callum
DAMIEN BURKE - Always makes me think of horror movies
DAVID BURKE - David seems too plain to me
JAMES BURKE - Don't like James
JASON BURKE - Or Jason
JOAQUIN BURKE - Too unique and trendy for me
JONAH BURKE - LOVE Jonah
JUDE BURKE - Love Jude, too
JULIAN BURKE - Like it, but don't love it
KEIRAN BURKE - Like it, but a little too feminine for me
LANDON BURKE - Like it, but not my favorite
LEVI BURKE - Like it
LEIF BURKE - Definitely too unique for me
LIAM BURKE - LOVE IT!!! omg!!! MY FAVORITE NAME EVER!!!
MALACHY BURKE - Don't like it at all
MALACHI BURKE - Same, but I like this spelling better
MICAH BURKE - Like it, but don't love it
WILLIAM BURKE - Like it, but don't love it

I think I like Liam, Jonah, or Jude the best. They're a nice mix of cute and unique so he won't be one of 50 and it's cute on a little kid, but sophisticated enough that when he's older he won't look like an idiot.

I didn't realize that Burke is the ln, not the mn you picked out. So here are my mn suggestions for those three I liked:

Liam Patrick Burke
Liam Micah Burke
Liam Julian Burke
Liam James Burke

Jonah Levi Burke
Jonah Landon Burke
Jonah Liam Burke
Jonah David Burke

Jude David Burke
Jude Liam Burke
Jude Micah Burke
Jude William Burke

I like Callum, Damien, James, Jude, Kieran, Liam, William.
Please don't name your child Julian. My cousin is called Julian but hates it so he goes my Jools. And I agree with someone elses comment that Bastien is much too similar to bastard.

Is there anyone you would like to honour? That is always a good start when it comes to middle names. I think it's quite important that middle names have some kind of meaning and are not just names that sound nice.
So for example, what is your fathers first and middle name? What is your partners? Any close male friends? Your partners fathers name? Grandfathers names?
