I've been thinking a lot about sibsets lately for some reason, and this led me to think about what my ideal sibsets would be. Of course, I know my name preferences will probably change a million times before I actually have kids, so this is really all in good fun   

 

The sibset I'm working on right now consists of three boys, mostly because I'm being so fussy with girl names right now that I really am not sure what I like best at the moment.

 

So, here goes:

 

William Lee "Will"

Middle names with always be  honoring somebody or after somebody important, family or otherwise (some might even be after book characters, since I'm a bit of a book nerd, so don't mock me ). Lee is my middle name and my father's middle name, and I really like it anyway. And I love Will so much.

 

_______ John/Jack "PJ"

The middle name has to be either John or Jack for honoring purposes, but I'm not sure on the P. I've come to love PJ as a nickname because of a very inspirational Youtuber. I do like Peter in the first name spot, but I feel like every PJ ever is probably named Peter John or something similar. My problem is that my style is traditional, so there's not really a lot of other P names to work with at all. Help please!

 

Caspar ______ "Cas"

I also had Oliver "Ollie" competing for this spot, but since Oliver is so popular right now I'm gravitating away from it. The middle name I have on my list for Caspar is John, which is a problem because of PJ's middle name. I have Connor Atticus on my list, and I like Atticus after Atticus Finch, but I feel Atticus doesn't flow as well with Caspar. I really want to keep the honoring trend for middle names, but I really don't know. This one can always be after the hypothetical father of the children, haha   because that will definitely be someone who's honored. So any suggestions right now would be a help.

 

Thanks in advance! Any help is greatly appreciated.

My brother is William Lee I like his name quite a bit. Handsome and it suits him.

Peter Jack is really nice! You could have Patrick John or Percy Jack/John. Paul is a nuce name, but Paul Jack & Paul John are sort of abrupt. You could have Paul Jonathan. There's also Pierce and Piers. Philip is handsome. Phelan is cool.

I love Caspar! And it's too funny that you have considered Oliver, I have another little brother who is named Oliver, nn Olly. so, middle names for Cass. Caspar Finch is actually really awesome! I met a Finch the other day and I can't get it out of my head since. It's a bit like Finn, but not as common. I like it a lot!

That's so funny that I picked your brothers' names   

 

Yeah, I think I might favor Peter Jack over Peter John just because it's less common. I like Philip, but I would be more obligated to have his nickname be Phil even if his middle initial was J.

 

I really like Caspar Finch! Speaking of bird names, though, I love Robin because of Robin Hood, and I'd love to make it a middle name, but I like the other two combos, but I feel like the R's run in Caspar Robin. Do you think it's too bad to use? I don't think it's that bad, they just run together a little.

I think William Lee sounds very nice.

 

As for PJ, I think Porter John, Patrick John, and Perceus/Percy Jack would all be great.  Paris John would also be really handsome, but I'm usually the only person who still loves Paris for a boy.

 

Caspar is a great name. I've always loved the nickname Cas/Cass for a boy, and right now I really like Caspian and Castor as full names.  For his middle name, I think Caspar Finch and Caspar Robin both sound really nice. Robin doesn't make it too R heavy, but it does throw the flow off just a bit. You could also switch it a little and do William Finch and Caspar Lee.

I adore William. William Lee is very classic and I like that Lee is after you and your father. My mom and her father's middle name is Lee as well and mine is LeeAnn so I feel you on that.

 

John and Jack are not my style, but I like the simplicity of the names and that they are honoring someone. Peter John is actually nice. Honestly Peter and Paul are the only P names I can think of for boys...What about Patrick?

 

I really like Caspar! It's not a name you hear often. Caspar Finch is really nice. I like how both names go well together and neither are common or trendy.

 

BTW I love using names from books or tv shows or movies so don't worry about it! Most of the names on my list are based off of a character I loved.
