Hi, we have a son named Maverick. Which goes better? Ashley or Luke?

Firstly Maverick is an awesome name!!

In keeping with a film theme I would go Luke, but both are great Smile

Thank you! We are considering Lucian or Lucius as full names. However, we do just like Luke.

Ashley sounds better with Maverick, to me. Less K-ness.

Neither go with Maverick IMO. Luka would though.

Luke definitely. Ashley is daft, sorry. Especially with such a strong name like Maverick. Lucian is also a great name.

Ashley - Ashley Wilkes, the drip from Gone With The Wind

Luke - Paul Newman in Cool Hand Luke. Nuff said.

To me, Luke goes better with Maverick. I'm not keen on Ashley.

Maverick is such a fabulous, strong name, that Ashley and Luke, pale in comparison.
Lucian or Lucius are more of a match.
Do you like Luther or Levison.

Defiantly need a strong name with your awesome surname! Love Luke. Ashley is weak and too soft sounding in comparison. Jack?

I don't like Ashley, agree it's wishy washy.

Luckystar1 · 23/09/2016 10:04

Luke is best out of yours. What about Rex?

AmberGreyson · 23/09/2016 11:16

Luke i think suits better

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 23/09/2016 11:21

Luke

Sparrowlegs248 · 24/09/2016 18:49

I have a Luke. So would say Luke. I also like Lucas , and had a few weeks of wishing I had used that instead but am pleased I didn't now. Luke is not at all commonly used these days. We added an unusual middle name.

Luke

IDreamOfPeace · 28/09/2016 20:49

Maverick is fab! Luke is a great name but it sounds like it takes a backseat in comparison. Lucian or Lucius work though. Or how about Logan?
