What to you think about this name for a boy

Hello together

I like Edward and Elias, was thinking of it could be Edward Elias for a boy. I am a bit worried since both names start with the same letter and if it flows nicely. Last name starts with H.

Thanks.

Edward's a timeless English classic that gives him a lot of options - and Elias is a European favourite that's rising now in popularity here in the UK too. They are a nice pairing and flow well imo (although really most people won't care/know about Elias, it more important how Edward sounds with your surname).

Lovely combination. I like it.

Nice.
Generally in life, people are not going to call anyone 'firstname, middlename' anyway.
You are called firstname, surname and only have your middle name called out at your christening, graduation and wedding
or if your mother is telling you off

It's nice, flows well and Edward has lots of potential diminutives. I approve Smile
