Middle name?

[shockfactor.livejournal.com]

So, my husband and I are pretty set on the first name Atticus. We're due in three weeks :)

First of all, what do you guys think of that name? I'm not up on any trends - is it too trendy? Too dorky?  Our second choice is Matthias...

Our last name is Acquaviva.

I'd love to be able to have a middle name to honor my family - my father is my best friend and has taken care of me from day one.  The trouble is that I don't think any of the names that would represent him or that side of the family sound good with ANY of our name picks...we could use the last name as a middle name (Kern), or we could use Jeffrey or Richard.

Any suggestions?  And if nothing fits with Atticus - any first names that would go well with one of those middle names plus Acquaviva as a last name?

(FYI Acquaviva is pronounced like aquafina)

I think Atticus Jeffrey sounds great!

Maybe you can look up the meaning of the names Jeffrey and Richard and find another name with the same meaning, so you can still honor your Dad?
