So I'm stuck on which middle name to use for Jacob. Jacob Troy came off the top of my head but I love it. Jacob Chad would be after his paternal grandfather which would match with my first pick, Brian Robert, in using grandfathers' first names as middles.

So which sounds better Jacob Troy Baker (nn J.T ) or Jacob Chad Baker (nn J.C.)?

I don't really like either of these names with Jacob (or without Jacob either), but if I had to choose I would choose Chad, because it sounds a little better with Jacob.

They're both pretty good. Personally, I like the name Troy better than Chad, but however I like J.C. more than J.T., so my advice is to just go with whatever you like best. :) (I know that can be hard though)

Good luck!

I'm not a fan of either name, personally, but I like Jacob Troy just a bit better. For personal reasons, I am not a fan of Chad at all.

For whatever reason, I can't say Jacob Troy together outloud ;) I must be speech impaired or something, but it doesn't come out well :l Jacob Chad is nice! And I do love J.C.!! I have Jayson Charlie on my list, as J.C. :)

So my vote goes to Jacob Chad! ;)

I wasn't a big fan of Chad at first but potentially my other kids would be named after family members so I don't want one to be left out. And I'd probably end up calling him Jake or J.C. more than anything.
I'm still back and forth between the two. Any other ideas or middle name suggestions?

I like Jacob Martin and Jacob Samuel. Any other middle names? I'm honestly brain dead, which never happens when it comes to names.
What about Jacob Anthony or Jacob Clay? I know both mine & Martin's family are big on using family/honoring names but there aren't many guys I want to honor and those I do cause arguments because Martin "dislikes" (read: cannot stand) them. So I'm taking any & every suggestion I can get.

I really love JT but I can't think of any family with a T name other than my cousin Todd, who I don't see and I'm not a big fan of Todd.
Martin agrees with me on JT over JC but doesn't really care for Troy so now I have to find T names because the nn Jake was shot down because of a really really bad experience with a Jake. I'm actually surprised he didn't toss Jacob out as a name.
Martin still wants to use James Eric. I'm not a big fan of James as a first name and I prefer Eric James but he won't budge. Since James & Jacob are meaning wise, the same name & he picked Brian & Kristen to I agree to James or no?

I think Thor is very handsome and unique. I like Jacob Thaddeus, but Torsten isn't my style. (:

I like Thor the best. Jacob Thor Baker.
I might be able to get Martin to agree to Thaddeus but then again, maybe not since I shot down Virgil. He can be a boob sometimes.
