Jacob - which middle name?

You have all been so helpful in the past!

I hope this will be my last question to you...

Which middle name flows nicely with Jacob? They're all names of loved ones who all mean a lot to us and they each would be so pleased to be honoured in this way....which makes it hard to choose!

Jacob David
Jacob James
Jacob Louis
Jacob Doug

Think Jacob David goes the best, or Jacob Douglas too actually. Beautiful name!

MrsGilly1 · 22/06/2020 20:26

I suggest Jacob Thomas X

Sunnydayshereatlast · 22/06/2020 20:00

Jacob Zachery.

Jay Zee!!

I know a Jacob Louis, we nickname him JLo.

You can’t have Jacob James. They’re the same name! Just anglicised through different languages- Hebrew and Greek, I think. It’s why we refer to the era of James I as the Jacobean Age.

Jacob James - JJ?

Though equally Jacob David would give JD...

SomethingAboutNothing · 22/06/2020 19:32

I like Jacob Louis and think it flows nicely

userabcname · 22/06/2020 19:31

I like the sound of Jacob James.

Noflora · 22/06/2020 19:29

As with violetscone, Jacob Louis is the only one that flows imo. But I'm not sure that matters, and the surname will affect the flow too.

violetscone · 22/06/2020 19:26

Jacob Louis flows best to me.

Wheresmycider · 22/06/2020 19:21

Biased as I have a Jacob David.

Oh yeah! Hadn't spotted 'Cub Doug' !!
Yes Douglas would be better wouldn't it.

Not keen on Jacob Doug - if it's a family name Douglas is better than' cub dug' !.
Jacob James may become JJ (I know a few!)
The others don't 'go' at all imo.

Could it be Jacob Douglas?
