So here is the situation; my partner Raymond Thomas Cougeth (not real last name, but sounds very similar) has two children both boys.
there names are;
Hayden gorden cougeth (gorden after Raymond's deceased father Gordon Mitchell cougeth) &
Archie ray cougeth (ray after Raymond my partner)
Since i'm now expecting; all i can think of is what if its a boy? how will i name my son after his father when his 2 boys are already named after him and his father?? I'm not a big fan of the name Thomas as it is extremely common & also the name Mitchell as i know 3 of them all which i do not like.
am i being a sook or is this something im allowed to be worried about? please help me!!
a name if it is a boy ray and i both like is Taner but then Taner Thomas Cougeth isn't going to work with the 2 "T's" :S
so then i thought Taner ray cougeth but since Archie's middle name is already ray, can i still do it or is that too weird?

I think Hayden, Archie and Taner/Micah sounds handsome.
Have you thought of honouring your father, seeing as his boys honour him and his father. They'd still each have a family name, and I'm sure your dad would be honoured that you used his name for your son (if it's a boy).
Good luck! I'm sure whatever name you choose will be great :-)

Another way you could honor your husband would be to use his initials. R.T.

First of all, welcome to BNG! Hope we can help you find a name you love for your little one.
If you have any questions about the site or how to get around, just contact me or one of the moderating team.
I like Katie's suggestion of using the initials R.T/T.R.
If you don't like Thomas and Ray is already in use, it gives you a bit more freedom to find a name you like AND still honours your boyfriend in quite an obvious way.
Have you thought of playing around with the letters of your boyfriends first and/or middle names to create a new name?
Might be an idea.
PS. I love the names Archie and Hayden.

Glad we could help.
Would you like some random combinations using the initials RT?
