Middle Name for Sonny

My boy is now 5 weeks old. We are stuck for a middle name and time is running out to register him. It took us 3 weeks to name him Sonny! My partner said to just leave it at that but our other two have middle names and I think it odd that he wont have one (I know not everyone will agree with that sentiment but I'm not asking whether people agree with that point or not) Smile Any suggestions Jim - yeah, hilarious and not getting boring at all when suggested to me previously by friends/family would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance

I know a Sonny Felix and a Sonny Frederick.
Both gorgeous, but Sonny Felix just edges it for me.

Good luck x

You're not running out of time really. Register him as Sonny and add a middle name later - you can alter a birth certificate until the child is 12 months old.

I like a family connection in a middle name. Do you like your dad, grandad, fil, great-fil, brother etc? Or could you masculinise your mum, nan, mil, sister or great-mils names? Or are there any famous people you admire whose name you could use. e.g if you love Desmond Tutu he could be Sonny Desmond or Sonny Tutu! Are your or dh's surnames both included in the children's surnames? If not could you use whoever's surname is left out as a middle name?

I think it depends on how many syllables your surname has...

RabbitSaysWoof · 13/07/2014 20:31

I know a Sonny Blue

Notso · 13/07/2014 21:03

I have met five Sonny's,
Sonny Leroy
Sonny Rio
Sonny Clarence
Sonny Jordan Michael

Also one man who changed his name to Sir Bertram Sunshine who was nicknamed Sonny.

To my mind middle name should be long like: Sonny Sebastian, Sonny Alexander, Sonny Jonathan, Sonny Tristan

crazylady321 · 14/07/2014 22:12

I think because Sonny is a very trendy name i think unless its a family connection id be looking for something else with a modern feel

Sonny Elijah
Sonny Theo
Sonny Dexter
Sonny Beau

Just a few that popped in my head
