Tareyon, Ishiah, Cassius which sounds strongest name?

[K1mberlylauren]

Need to decide on a name today as it’s doing my head in partner is being difficult need opinions, my baby is of mixed heritage so I think all these names suit him help please

I'd choose Cassius

I love Cassius and also Isaiah. Two of my favourite names.

After - what - four threads? five? I think I'm as keen for this child to be named as you are!

Cassius is the best of those three options. Is Ishiah pronounced the same was as Isaiah? It's a nice name though I think you'll encounter spelling issues. Tareyon still sounds like a rejected Game of Thrones name and besides, doesn't your partner hate it?

Ishiah will get mixed up with Isiah, and I think it is normally written Ishia. Whatever, I'm not keen.

Tareyon - is it one you made up or is it from GoT or something? I'm not sure how to say it.

Cassius - good strong name.

Cassius is a fabulous name. After Muhamed Ali. Way better than the other two names.

Cassius!

Lovely. And your surname if he so much as says a word OP.

Cassius is the best of those 3 OP. It also goes well with your daughter's name.

However is your DP is still wanting Christopher or Alexander?

You've had some new suggestions on your last thread as well like Ezra and I made a few too

I love Cassius and would choose it if my friends child didn't have the name already!

Cassius

Cassius

Cassius. I love Isaiah but not Ishiah. Taeryon, I really don’t like, sounds like a fantasy character of some kind.

Blimey ain’t this poor kid got a name yet!
Cassius. There you go, have that one.

It's not the sound of a name that brings strength but its associations. If you're wanting something that might be helpful on a CV think about who has life easy in your locality. In the U.K. Charles/Charlie, William, George, Louis

You are kidding me, right? Kid of mixed heritage, parents want a name that reflects that and suits them but let's suggest the whitest names going.

OP I would use Cassius. Not mad about the other two but Cassius has a lovely sound.

I like Cassius but not the other two!

Cassius is Mohammad Ali's real name so that's definitely a strong sounding name to me.

@PerditaProvokesEnmity

I understand you completely.

My partner has an unusual name. He was struggling to get a job. The moment he changed his name on his application to his middle (more common) name, the interviews and job offers came flying in.

I have a very common name. I am not white. I have no doubt in my mind that my name has got me to the interview stage many a time.

Its a sad fact of life.

This is your fourth or fifth thread asking for opinions on the same names OP. It’s getting you the same answers. And if your partner doesn’t like any of them, which is what you’ve mentioned, I don’t know why asking about the same names again are going to solve your problems?

I like Cassius but remember the most famous Roman one was an assassin with "a lean and hungry look".

@PerditaProvokesEnmity, check your racism.

That comment was not racist. It was an acknowledgement of the fact that racism exists.

I vote Cassius or Isaiah

Another vote for Cassius here

To be honest I find it astonishing that I'm effectively being schooled on exactly what names a mixed heritage child is 'allowed' to bear. (Fwiw I really love Cassius!)

The OP spoke of 'strength' as the quality she wanted the name to have. Strength, in any community, comes from acquiring those things held by the most powerful cohort.

I am not aware of any particular names that belong solely to, or in any way describe, people who can claim 'mixed' heritage. (At least not in the U.K.) So I can think of no reason whatsoever (other than parental preference) why mixed heritage children should be excluded from use of those names which provide the fewest barriers to achievement.

I suspect some posters forget that they do not know the person whose post they object to. Generally best not to make assumptions ...

Isiah

Cassius
