Hi all,
So, we have decided to name our little boy Rowan. However, I am not settled on his middle name. I think James flows really nicely with it and its strong. Rowan James just sounds so strong and handsome. My hubby isn’t keen on it as it reminds him of a family member he’s not keen on (lol). Next, I always loved the name Shay/Shea so my husband thinks why not give him that as his middle name - our previous kids (girls) have meaning in both their first names and middle names, 1 after a very loved grandmother and the other when she was born (her first name holds a lot of meaning in relation to having conceived her via fertility treatment after heartache. So, basically I love names that hold meaning….so, for the same reason I would love a middle name with the same significance. (This little one, was a little blessing after having to conceive the previous via treatment and then having a miscarriage before him, then conceived him completely naturally with absolutely no problems throughout). I also during pregnancy out of no where had a ton of childhood trauma come back and hunt me and while it’s been very difficult, I believe this child has saved me in a way, he (and my others) have been my reason to get up, keep going and try and overcome this.
I have established that Shai means gift, however seems to be pronounced as Shy as opposed to Shay and a part of me is reluctant to use it incase I have another boy (which I also may never) as it’s a name I like and would use as a first name.
So, basically what I am asking, is for suggestions for middle names - that flow really well as I can’t think of any. I’ve searched and searched and don’t feel any flow very well.
I must add that we don’t want to use any relatives names. We have considered his daddys name, however it doesn’t particularly flow well.
Thanks in advance 💙
