Which do you prefer as a middle name for Issac and why? Martin and I like both fairly equally so we're having a hard time deciding.
We like the combined meaning of Laughter Enduring with Dante but we like the nickname Iggy from using Gawain.

Dante's a nice name, I think it's cute.

 

I've never heard Gawain before. I'm not sure how I feel about it, but it flows just a bit nicer with Isaac and Iggy is an adorable nickname. Ultimately, I vote for Gawain.  :)

 

(Gawain is pronounced gah-WAYNE, right?)

I agree. I like Isaac Gawain better. I think Dante is okay but I think the flow is a bit off with Isaac, plus I like the historical knight feel Gawain gives me (probably because it was the name of a knight/similar person on BBC Robin Hood). And Iggy is a really cute nickname.

Another Isaac Gawain vote. I love the feel I get from this combo. Gawain is incredibly handsome. I love Iggy!!
