A name that DH and children like for a boy is Arlo. Would like opinions on middle names. The list we have so far;

Arlo Christopher (DH name)
Arlo Frederick (DH grandads name)
Arlo James (DH mn name, but my sister called her little boy James)
Arlo Magnus (DH favourite name. I don't love it but don't hate it)

Surname starts with a B.

Which would you pick form the list?
What would you suggest?

I like Arlo Christopher and Arlo Frederick.

James is very popular as a middle name. Magnus is a bit clunky sounding.

James is what I thought of before seeing your list. Arlo James is really lovely.

Arlo Dean I think sounds nice, or Arlo Bean (bit riskier).

You need to sound them out with your surname.

Of your list, Arlo James (nn AJ?) is the nicest.

My brother is called Dean (not that I don't want to honour him - but I gave my DD my sisters name as her mn. But DH has brothers so don't want anyone to feel left out).

Arlo James probably sounds the best with our surname
