first name to go with chosen middle name

[pippapenguin]

Hi, I've already chosen Albert as a middle name after my grandad but we can't think of a first name that goes with it.We both like Alex but is that too many ALs?

[SoupDragon]

James

[MrsBadger]

Depends on your surname tbh

James is excellent though - I think either one syllable or three would be good with ALbert

Benjamin?
Christopher?

Alex is too many 'Al's, you're quite right

[pippapenguin]

The poor child's surname will be Goosey!!

[MrsBadger]

oh dear
well there are worse things

I was thinkign more of length than of anything else - 'Jack Stone' is a bit abrupt and 'Christopher Fotherinton-Thomas' is a bit of a mouthful, but Goosey is fine with long or short names.

just don't let him marry anyone called Lucy...

[belgo]

Alexander Albert sounds fine to me.

[MrsBarbaraKingstanding]

William.

Lovely name.

William Albert Goosey.

[Wheelybug]

with * Albert Goosey you're going to have to be careful with initials if that bothers you.

I like James Albert Goosey.

[TsarChasm]

I think Alexander Albert sounds just fine and it works .

Might be too many 'AL's' if your surname begins with the same letters.

[diddl]

Alexander, and "Alex" for short.

Alex sounds great - goes with surname and really how many times do you need to say the whole name anyway?

Would also work:
Daniel
Matthew
Peter
Lucas/Luke
Lewis/Louis
Sebastian
Oliver
Jack/James
Joseph/Joe
Oscar
Thomas/Tom
William (though the initials would be WAG!)
Patrick
Samuel

Nothing beginning with "F" obviously.....

[SoupDragon]

Not convinced about A Goosey. I used to work with A Chicken, and I'm not a farmer.

[Tidey]

Sag, Wag, Fag, Tag... basically it's going to spell something pronounceable unless the first name also starts with a vowel. But I don't know whether that bothers you.

I think Alexander Albert sounds okay anyway.

[shoobidoo]

I like

Quentin Albert Goosey

and

Oscar Albert Goosey

also the initials don't mean anything obviously teaseworthy...

[mopsyflopsy]

I like

Thomas
William
Quentin
James

best with Albert as second name.

[mathanxiety]

I would avoid Luke and Lucas, Louis and Lewis, (same problem as Lucy...) and the initial A isn't great with the surname either. I like Patrick, Oliver, Henry, Sam and Peter.

Think that Alexander Albert Goosey sounds lovely.

I would be wary of too many Al's if Al was the beginning of his last name, but with a middle name it sounds lovely.

[Ineedsomesleep]

Sorry about that, too much use of lovely I know.

I'll get me coat before the MN police turn up.
