Samuel?

I'm 7 months pregnant with my third child.

We are having a very hard time picking a name.

Our eldest son is Ethan Dylan

My daughter is Emily Rachel

The name we both agree on and like is Samuel but we can't find a middle name to go with it.

Before we chose Samuel we wanted the middle name to be Daniel as we both have a younger brother named that.

But Samuel Daniel sounds strange, like it rhymes but doesn't!

Any idea's?

I would keep daniel too

I think Samuel is a very nice name, but be prepared to live in the shadows of six other Samuels at the gate. DD is in reception and there are four of them.

Personally, I'd keep Daniel on the basis that it has some significance within the family. (But them I'm really into family names)

If you choose to keep Samuel, perhaps you might want a less common middle name?
