We are stuck looking for a middle name for "Leighton Edwards" for a boy. Leighton is a family name that usually shows up as a middle name (mine included) in the first born male of a generation on my fathers side of the family. My wife loves the name as a first name but we are having trouble finding a middle name for Leighton Edwards. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I like it!

Since the first and last name are 2 syllables, I would prefer a one syllable name. Are there any other males in your family you would like to honor? Godparent?

Here are some that I think sound well with Leighton Edwards:

Leighton James
Leighton John
Leighton Cole
Leighton Creed
Leighton Kurt
Leighton Ray
Leighton Jack
Leighton Blake
Leighton Paul
Leighton Gage
Leighton Scott
Leighton Grant
Leighton Dane
Leighton Marc
Leighton Drew
Leighton Heath

Good luck! Hope this helps somewhat!

I like the names Grant and James, the leading favorites from the discussions so far in the family are Daniel, Anthony and Alexander. I'm not a huge fan of Daniel and now that you have pointed out LE is a 2-2, do you think 2-2-2 would flow easier?

Now that you say it, another 2 syllable name does sound nice as well.
Some more ideas for that option:
Leighton Thomas
Leighton David
Leighton William
Leighton Andrew
Leighton Michael
Leighton Mitchell

My favorites out of all of your options and my suggestions:
Leighton James
Leighton Grant
Leighton Jack
Leighton Anthony
Leighton Thomas
Leighton Andrew
