Ways to honour Michael John

I’m currently pregnant with twins and if I have a DS I am floating around the idea of naming him after my late grandfather who meant to much to me. His name was Michael John and I’m not sure how best to honour it. Me and DP both don’t like the name Michael or John because we feel they are a bit dated and don’t go with our other DC Winnie and Buzz. We both don’t think Micky is usable due to the mouse association and we can’t think of another way to honour him
any help would be appreciated

I mean , if Winnie and Buzz with their obvious cartoon/Disney links don’t bother you then why does Mickey?

This in spades.

Or maybe go for Mike (as in Wasowski).

Or possibly Micah

Use Micheal John as middle names or one of them, or one each or two boys. They really don't go with your other kids names.

Emme? Or Emmet to have an echo of the letter M or MJ connotation?
Mikey is a cute and more modern version of Mickey?

Could you work with Mick or Mike? Or maybe was there a nn your grandfather went by??
