    Initial thought to Alvin: don't give the lad the middle names of Simon Theodore. Then I read two middle names and realised it was a possiblilty.

    If you like Vinny, why not Vincent? That's two syllables. Nathen shortened to Nate could work for you too.

    I do adore Phineas though, so I'd go with that from your list.

    I love Vincent but we gave DS1 Vincent as his middle name so its gone now. I do like Jules, or Julian, but does it seem girly? Just not sure it goes with the other boys' names.

    I quite like Calvin too - but can't get past the association with 'bald'. Wish I had never read that meaning! Why is it so hard!

    Keep 'em coming - there must be some more options out there..

    I had Julian on my list because I liked the nickname Jules. I like that one.

    Re Vincent, I don't see a problem with naming DS5 one of DS1's middle names. Middle names rarely get used in general so only your close family & friends would know. And if you really like, then why not?

    I'm with the majority on Alvin though - my first thought reading the title was "and the chipmunks". Being a kids show, & kids being rather tactless, I think I would avoid it personally.

    Good luck
