I am not pregnant, this is just for my name list and/or future reference.

When I was little my grandpa used to call me Eloise because he thought I looked just like the girl from the movie "Eloise." His name is really unattractive in my opinion, but I love the name Eloise, and I was wondering if you all thought it would honor my grandpa enough by giving a daughter Eloise as a middle name. Can I have some suggestions with Eloise in the middle spot? I have Jane Eloise, and I also like Mallory Eloise.

Also, I'm updating my name list and I really feel like changing my combo for Silas. I currently have Silas Wade, which I love, but I feel like Wade isn't a "normal" enough middle for Silas. I was thinking I like Silas Henry more. I still love Wade, though. I'd like some new combos for Wade. Preferably some with it in the first spot and some with it in the middle.

Also, I've lately been obsessed with Tolliver and Gideon :) suggestions for those? Right now I have Tolliver Blake and nothing for Gideon.

And opinions on the name Olivette for girls? I'm not sure how I feel about it.
& Oleander for boys. I wouldn't actually use it, I don't think, but kind of guilty pleasure for me.

I think that's really sweet :)

So you have Jane Eloise already.....

Reagan Eloise
Renee Eloise
Rachel Eloise
Megara Eloise
Rose Eloise
Cora Eloise
Christina Eloise

I don't know if you particularly like any of those names, but I tried

Gideon Richard, Gideon Michael, Gideon Blair, Gideon Elijah?

I think using Eloise is a sweet way to honor your grandfather. Jane Eloise is gorgeous! Here are some other suggestions:

Ruby Eloise
Harper Eloise
Mary Eloise
Lucy Eloise
Sydney Eloise
Piper Eloise
Sadie Eloise
Daisy Eloise
Hailey Eloise
Hannah Eloise
Kate Eloise
Iris Eloise

I think Silas Wade is a perfectly handsome name. Wade doesn't seem too "abnormal" for Silas to me. Silas Henry is very handsome, though I think I prefer Henry Silas. Here are some other suggestions for Wade:

Wade Elliott
Wade Lincoln
Wade Benjamin
Wade Nicholas
Wade Harrison
Wade Alexander
Wade Matthew
Wade Andrew
Wade Nathaniel
Anthony Wade
Christopher Wade
Jonathan Wade
Spencer Wade
Michael Wade
Jackson Wade
Patrick Wade
Theodore Wade
Zachary Wade
Elijah Wade
Samuel Wade
Henry Wade
Dominic Wade
Nolan Wade

Tolliver is not really my style (I much prefer Oliver), but Blake evens out the flow well. Suggestions for Gideon:

Gideon Luke
Gideon Matthew
Gideon Thomas
Gideon Cole
Gideon James
Gideon Chase
Gideon John
Gideon Levi
Gideon Maxwell
Gideon Perry
Gideon Seth
Gideon Troy
Gideon Reid

Have you considered Silas Gideon, Gideon Silas, Gideon Wade, or Henry Gideon?

Neither Olivette nor Oleander is my style. I think I like Olivette a little better, but Olive or Olivia seem more practical to me. Oleander has strong Harry Potter connotations to me... not sure if that's the direction you were going for.

Hope this helps!

First of all, thank you very much for your help!

These were my favorites out of each category:
Ruby Eloise
Sydney Eloise - I couldn't use this, though, because a close friend just had a Sydney Eleanor that goes by Sydney-Ella.
Piper Eloise
Sadie Eloise

Wade Benjamin
Wade Nathaniel - this was on my list for a while :)
Spencer Wade
Jackson Wade
Henry Wade
Nolan Wade

Gideon Thomas
Gideon Chase
Gideon Levi
Gideon Seth

I really had no idea there was an Oleander in Harry Potter. Is the character good or bad? Is it a main character?

Oops, it's actually Ollivander, as in the character who owns the wand shop. My bad! :blush:

Oh, okay. I'm not familiar with Harry Potter at all, haha, I've never read nor seen it, all I know is what people tell me
