Hi everyone,

We found out this week that we are expecting a baby boy and have settled on Benjamin as his first name. We've got a shortlist of middle names and are struggling to decide. Please help!
For context, our surname starts with B.

Benjamin Alexander
Benjamin Oliver
Benjamin Miles
Benjamin Luke
Benjamin Zachary

Thanks :)

From your list, I like Benjamin Luke.
Benjamin John, or Benjamin James, are my preference.

We have a Benjamin James

But out of your list I would say Benjamin Oliver.

Doesn't Benjamin mean "son of James"?

I would have Benjamin Luke from your list but I have Benjamin Mark

I have a Benjamin George
But I really like Benjamin Luke

Benjamin Oliver gives the initials BO if that bothers you. I would go for Benjamin Alexander from your list . We went with William for ours Smile.

I find Benjamin Miles tricky to say. I like Benjamin Alexander best, and also Benjamin Zachary.

NapQueen · 22/12/2016 19:22

Benjamin Alexander from your list

Sophronia · 22/12/2016 22:24

I like Benjamin Miles and Benjamin Luke best

MiniMaxi · 23/12/2016 12:36

I like Alexander, Oliver and Zachary from your list

If going Oliver just check you're happy with the initials being BOB! Smile
