So I feel a great urge to honor my dads name as the middle name, Brian. I like the Cas names, Cassiel, Cassius, Cassian. But I'm having trouble now that we want the middle name to be Brian because non really sound good with Brian. I wanted Cassian Brian, but a few have said that it doesn't go because they both end in "ian". I've been set on the nn Cas, so if you think a name that could be Cas as a nn and sounds good with Brian as the middle name tell me!! Last name is Dejesus (day-hay-zoos). Cassian Dejesus sounds great to me. I just don't know about Brian being in the middle but want to honor my dad. Help?!

What about Briar as a middle name

I don't think you need to use his name to honour him. Obviously I don't know your situation but I would never ever feel that my children honoured me more by using my name.

It's really not going to be often that you use the full name with his middle name, I'd just go ahead and use Cassian Smile

Or even another name that sounds great with Brian that wouldn't be nn Cas, but I will never do a common/popular name for the first name so something unique
