I’ve been really liking the name Emmett lately, but I’m having trouble thinking of a good middle name to go with it. Any suggestions?

Thank you!

@Gmooh21, Thank you! I like both of those names.

I think something classic would go really nicely like Alexander or James.

@Borris and @ILoveShula, what area do you live in? I’ve never heard it used as a slang word, so I’m wondering if it’s just a regional thing.

An emmet is an ant.
Slang for tourist.

Thank you! I have a shorter surname, so Emmett Christopher and Emmett Alexander both work well.

Emmett is a lovely name!
How about Emmett Alexander or Emmett Christopher if you have a short surname.
Emmett Dale or Emmett Jake if you have a longer surname.
