Would you rather...

Vincent John Michael (insert surname)

Vincent Frank Michael (insert surname)

Or...

Vincent (insert) Michael (insert surname)

Thank you, he’ll be here soon GrinFlowers

Choose the one YOU love or that has the most meaning to you. Middle names rarely get used.

pip I’m trying but DH isn’t keen on any Envy

Vincent Alexander Micheal

Wouldn't use Frank, but Francis or Franklin instead

Vincent John Michael has the best ring to it. Frank puts me in mind of EastEnders.

Perhaps once Vincent is born, you might decide that he suits one more than the other. Best wishes to you.

Vincent John Michael or Vincent Francis Michael. I don't really like Frank on its own.

Van.......

Before I even opened the thread I thought to myself 'Vincent John'

So you have to go with that OP Grin

Evelynismyspyname · 27/10/2017 13:56

Why do you need so many names? Sounds as though you're decided on Vincent and Michael, so Vincent Michael...

Sophronia · 27/10/2017 14:00

Vincent John Michael, or Vincent Michael John.

BernardBlacksHangover · 27/10/2017 14:11

Vincent Michael is nice, assuming Michael isn't the surname?

Bella8 · 27/10/2017 15:53

What about Vincent James? I'm not sure whether it would go with your surname but that has a lovely ring to it

BernardBlacksHangover · 27/10/2017 16:22

I think John and Michael are the names of Wendy's brothers in Peter Pan btw. Not sure if that's a good, bad or completely irrelevant thing. Not even sure why I'm typing this... Grin

StaySexyDontGetMurdered · 27/10/2017 16:23

I really like Vincent Francis.

BlueButTrue · 27/10/2017 20:04

I’m a born and raised EastEnder Wink

I love Francis, etc etc but wanted something shorter than Michael etc as I think it has a better ring to it

What about Vincent James? I'm not sure whether it would go with your surname but that has a lovely ring to it

James is DH’s middle name Grin not too keen!

I always think it's nice to honour family with middle names.

Assuming you took your husband's surname and will give the baby the same one (as that's what most people do) I suggest a middle name from your side of the family. Doesn't have to be from a man either, could be the male version of a woman's name, or a surname that also works as a first name.

Having said all that, John is a classic and goes well with the combination you've picked Wink

BlueButTrue · 27/10/2017 20:20

NameChange I agree - That’s why I was going with John Wink (my dad’s name)

Michael is his dad... and we both have my husband’s surname

NameChange30 · 27/10/2017 20:22

That seals the deal, has to be John! Smile

NameChange30 · 27/10/2017 20:24

DS's middle name is John Smile

BlueButTrue · 28/10/2017 10:05

John it is then Flowers
