At the moment we both like Harley.

I also like Jamey, Benjamin, William, Henry and Jacob.

DH likes Charlie.

Just want to know what people think of Alexander and Harley together and any other name suggests that go nice with Alexander.

I knew an Alexander and Jude

Harley doesn't seem as traditional as your other name choices but goes well with Alexander. Henry or Benjamin would be my favourites from your list though.

Leftielefterson · 09/07/2019 00:14

I like Benjamin and Jacob.

I liked Alexander and Sebastian when I thought I might be having a boy.

Shadow1234 · 09/07/2019 00:26

I think Jacob goes best with Alexander
Harley is a lovely name but I prefer it for a girl

RubberTreePlant · 09/07/2019 00:29

Benjamin or Jacob.

Harley is a completely different style.

dreichhighlands · 09/07/2019 00:29

I think of Harley as being an American girls name. It isn't the same kind of name was Alexander.

RolyWatts · 09/07/2019 00:40

Alexander = traditional, steadfast, strong, smart. Harley = motorbike, reckless, dangerous, cool.

Snoopy90 · 09/07/2019 00:41

Alexander and George?

I wouldn't put Harley with Alexander.
Alexander is classy, and let's just say Harley is not.
I like William with Alexander.
Other suggestions.
Alexander and.
Thomas. James. Matthew. Elliot. Oliver. Daniel. Andrew. Francis. Samuel. Robert. Michael. Anthony.

Not keen on Harley, especially with Alexander. Prefer Benjamin, William and Henry.

ElfishBiatch · 09/07/2019 06:35

Not keen on Harley, totally different style to Alexander.

William, Benjamin and Henry are lovely. James is nice too, could be shortened to Jamie.

Fivefootoffun · 09/07/2019 06:37

Alexander and Lewis
Alexander and Finlay
Alexander and Reuben
Alexander and Isaac
Alexander and Nathaniel
Alexander and Oliver

William is the best fit for Alexander of your choices. Harley is a very different kind of name and I think they would seem odd together.

HettyStThomas · 09/07/2019 07:46

I know two Alexander's. Their brothers are Benjamin and Henry.

EskewedBeef · 09/07/2019 07:46

Alexander and Harley don't sound like brothers.
William, James, Stephen, Benjamin etc would be a better pairing.

Thanks everyone for your opinion and the name suggests, will see what my DH thinks of them.
