Currently expecting baby boy number 2 well over half way through the pregnancy and seriously thinking about names, we are going to call him Murphy, but are struggling to find a middle name, I know we don't need one but we would like him to have one.

I always think Alexander goes with nearly everything as a middle name.

As Murphy is quite an unusual name, maybe something more run-of-the-mill like Samuel or Daniel? I often find that middle names are for sentimental reasons (a grandparent's name for example) or something "out there".

thank you for the suggestions, love Alexander and James, and thank you for not suggesting we change his first name like i see so often when people ask for help :)
