Okay, so here is my boys topic.

Basically I can't decide between the middle names for Kristian. I have loved Kristian Luke for a while, but am not sure if there are to many hard K sounds in there. I like Kristian Elias too, but just not as much as Kristian Luke.

I have had Benjamin Joel on my list for a while, and started to worry about there being too many J sounds all slushed together, but Benjamin Paul just doesn't seem to have the same ring to it as Benjamin Joel.

Leonard/Leo. I really like the name Leonard. It's my dad's middle name, and a really great way to honour him. William also honours two of my cousins, and I think it goes really well with Leonard. I'm not sure that Leonard really fits in though, and am worried that if I named my son this he would get teased. I am thinking of just making it Leo William instead, however it doesn't really sound the same as Leonard William.

Lastly, just a choice of spelling really. Jaxson Daniel, or Jaxon Daniel. I'm not sure which looks the best, so just looking for advice and opinions. I like both spellings more than Jackson, and the nn would be the same (Jax).

Thanks in advance

I voted for Kristian Elias, Benjamin Paul, and Leo William. For the record, I like Luke and Joel a lot more than Elias and Paul, but I Kristian Elias has a much better flow and though Benjamin Joel is really, really nice, I always try to avoid BJ initials of any sort. Just curious, but is there a reason for spelling Kristian with a K? My guess would be that you chose K to avoid the obvious religious meaning.

I spelt Kristian with a K to avoid the obvious religious meaning, and I also prefer it with a K. If I did have a son called Benjamin Joel his nn would be Ben anyway, so hopefully no-one would call him BJ. And Thanks for your input :) I might make Leonard a middle name instead, and find something else that goes with William.

Kristian Elias has nice flow, and Benjamin Joel is handsome :)

I looooove love love Leonard William!!! Both are handsome, but it flows better as Leonard than Leo, though I do adore Leo much more :D
