Middle Names for Amos

Here is what I'm thinking...
Amos Oliver - Love Oliver...sounds great with Amos. I just feel the O. initial is a bit awkward....Amos O. Lastname, A.O. Lastname :\
Amos Theodore - I really like Theodore. It just doesn't have as great a flow as some of the other options.
Amos Elliot - I think this name flows great and I really like Elliot...But it would it be weird to have Eller James & Amos Elliot for siblings??
Amos Whitney - I like this one a lot, not sure if I have the guts to use it though. Would it be awful to use Whitney for a middle name today??
Amos Richard - Richard is actually my dad's first name. It sounds nice, just not sure if I'd want to name a kid after my Dad since we aren't very close.

Love Amos Oliver.
Unless your last name, has an 'O' in it.. then I dont think it has too many 'Os'.
Amos Elliot and Eller James are unfortunately too close for siblings.. but then again Elliot is only a middle name... Hmm..

I'm not a fan of Whitney on a boy at all. I *know* it was originally used on boys, but it's not much anymore and it sounds feminine anyway. But, I could understand how you would like it for a boy. I mean, I LOVE Madison for a boy.

Amos Theodore is my absolute favorite. It flows the best and both names compliment each other in style and sophistication.

Thanks...I think with everyone's comments in mind I'm leaning toward Amos Oliver or Amos Theodore...I love the sound of Theodore as a whole name but I'm not loving any of the obvious nicknames so I think I'm going to regulate it to the middle name spot so I still get to use a name I love
As to Whitney...I think that it falls under my own special category of "Boys names that are more commonly used as girls names but I dislike on girls and they feel refreshing and sophisticated on boys" ...other names that fall under this category are Avery, Casey, Ray...
