Back again,
I had a thread recently about sibling names to Seb and Rowan. We've found out it is (amazingly) another boy. We had some great suggestions which have gone onto the list (Toby/ Ellis/ Archer) but none quite meet the mark.
Have fallen in love with Barnaby and husband is keen on it too. Only problem is it doesn't go with our middle name - Benjamin.
Other 2 have family names- great grandparents- as middles so we want a middle name with meaning.
Benjamin is my husbands middle which is a lovely name.
Other grandparents' names are out (just can't bestow them on a child- Derek and Walter). Don't want to use DF without DFIL's and don't want 2 middles. DF is a better name to use- David- but don't think he'd like it being used and would feel uncomfortable. Husbands first name is not one I'd like to use either.
I had come up with James as a middle for Barnaby (my GRandad's middle) but husband has said no because of BJ initials.
Any other suggestions of how we can use a meaningful family name? My DM is welsh so have looked into welsh names with meaning but none seem to fit.otherwise I might have to discount Barnaby and I love it so much.
