    Red face 2nd Baby - need another name?????

    Hi Everyone,

    I've had a good read on the thread of names - and everyone seems to have some great ideas. So Im hoping you can help me with the little problem I have....

    New baby - hopefully a boy because i need another boy to balance the family and my son is desperate for a brother - that said of course if it's a girl - I will be happy.

    Can anyone think of a 2nd and 3rd name to go with MAXIMILIAN. Of course will no doubt be Max for short. There is not another boy's name that I have come across, heard, read etc that I love. So Maximilian it is for now.

    His name must be strong, and masculine.

    It is tradition (yes perhaps ridiculous) in my family to have 2 middle names.

    So my dilemma is that nothing that I like goes with Maximilian?? because the names i like are all too long.....

    they are Oliver, Parker...and thats where i am at....

    so any help you could perhaps throw my way would be great.

    Thanks

    Cheers!

    Thanks Ginger, great suggestion - I like it.

    Im reading as I await everyone's or at least i hope i get lots of suggestions - and what do people think of Maximilian and Max now that I am thinking?

    is it too old, crappy, long, boring not funky - my first child is ultra cool, dark or (brown) skinned, curly haired, dark, dark eyes.....and a real man's man.......hence my problem trying to match him and his name???

    thoughts? suggestions? im open to whatever you've got!

    Max is cool but I'd spell it Maximillian (two L's). Its not very common. One of my tenants is a Max but he's 50something

    Maybe Owen as a middle name?

    Maybe Maxillian James Cameron. That way you have a shorter name in the middle and the longer names on the ends

    Hi Everyone,

    thanks for you replies - they are a great start for me to think outside the square.....i really like Maximillian with two L's - great idea smiles4u and RumpledElf -

    I also like the "James Cameron" suggestion - perhaps people will think im a huge movie fan of avatar - and the baby will be half elf........clearly not enough of a fan to know what the blue guys are called.....

    thanks again everyone,

    cheers
