Frankie Taylor sounds great!

Love the name River (always reminds me of River Phoenix) and think it sounds lovely with your surname. Love Cody too! What middle names were you considering? That'll help with deciding your favourites based on the flow of the entire name.

I like Frank (nn Frankie) and Elliott.

Rory or Elliott

I LOVE the name Rory, so so cute! Perfect for a little one and as an adult.

georgie262 · 31/03/2018 18:40

My dads name is Franklyn so it's Frankie for me

Ginnotginger · 31/03/2018 18:24

Elliot or Rory Smile.

ineedamoreadultieradult · 31/03/2018 18:11

Rory or Brody

Beeziekn33ze · 31/03/2018 18:08

Rory!

I don't like the double 't' Elliot Taylor and I don't like the repeated 'er' sound in Oscar or River Taylor. My favourite is Rory, but I don't mind Cody or Brody. I'm not a fan of Frankie (but I do like Francis).

My favourite's from your list are Rory and Elliott. Oscar and Frankie are nice too, but not sure if they go with the surname.

River - I think River Taylor is a bit too samey with the r at the end of both words.

Rory - Like this one.

Oscar - not with Taylor - again, r sounds.

Frankie - I'd use Frank and nickname Frankie, make it sound like a name for a grown up and not just a baby. I like it with Taylor

Elliott - the t at the end runs together with that at the start of Taylor.

Cody - fine

Brody - really disagree that its fine if you're Irish, it's a bog standard surname here so I think that would be weird for people. For Irish Americans it'd be an Irish name, but not for actual Irish. I don't mind it with Taylor.

Would use Rory or Frank.

James! James James James James James James.
James Taylor is the coolest...

Sophronia · 31/03/2018 11:37

Rory or Frankie

-ie is the Scottish version, Brody is the Irish.

BrutusMcDogface · 31/03/2018 08:44

Isn't Brody/Brodie with an -ie ending the feminine version?
