    Middle names are hard!

    Still considering Eames (like Beams with no B)
    But need help with a middle name

    Hubby middle name is Michael so was always going to use that for a boy (as DD2 has my middle name)

    Any suggestions ?

    Depends on the surname for me, I prefer my middle names to not right rhyme with surnames, but then again if the right name came along it would be hard!
    Is Eames a girl name too? Eames Renae?
    What is your grandparents surnames suit? Eg, Clark, Perry etc

    Middle names we have chosen for our kids and kid to be include: Jewel, Rhys, Peach, Logan

    I have only heard it as a boys name.
    Surname is like kylie but with a W

    My maiden name is Duncan so that could be a possibility

    We like (we as in me and Miss 6 who love neighbours) Rhys as a boys name too.

    I guess I've never been sure how Duncan goes with my married name W ylie
    Also I guess I'm a bit conscious that DD1 middle name is my great grandmother, DD2 first name is my grandma and mother's name hyphenated and my middle name
    I feel this last child should include something from hubby's side or nothing at all!

    Father in law is Ian (but my ex husband is Iain), pop-in-law is Colin and passed away grandfathered was William W ylie and they called him Jack.

    I was even considering two middle names to cover it :/

    Is the child having his surname? If yes, middle name is a great way to honour your family by using a special name.

    Yes but all the kids have his surname
    But I see what you are saying
    They have his surname so it doesn't matter if they have nothing else from that side of the family.

    I really like Eames Duncan.

    Eames William W ylie sounds good too though. Not much of a fan of Eames Colin.

    I like the sound of Duncan. I gave my DS my maiden name as a middle name, that way he was named after everyone lol
