Middle name for Charles/Charlie

13 replies

Isntshelovelyisntshewonderful · 09/09/2020 20:04

We are due DS2 in a couple of months and pretty much set on calling him Charlie, with Charles on the BC. Struggling with middle name as ideally would like it to ‘flow’ with both Charles and Charlie if that’s possible to do?! Surname begins with O.. so avoiding names beginning with F and O as I’m not sure about the initials CFO and CEO sounding like a job title..!

Love:

Charles Henry - but initials would be CHO which I’m not sure about.. and Henry doesn’t flow with Charlie

Charles Zachary - I love but DH isn’t a fan

Charles William - family name and I like it but not 100%

Any other suggestions very much welcome please! Thank you 😊

Think it needs to be at least two syllables to flow nicely. How about:
Charles Lawrence
Charles Benjamin
Charles Patrick
Charles Robert
Charles Johnathan

William. It flows nicely and you have the family connection.

Oh didn't realise you had family connection with William- I'd go for that then as goes lovely with Charles too!

I have always thought middle names pointless, so if you are struggling, why have a middle name at all?

Lebkuchenlovers · 10/09/2020 08:55

I don't have a middle name. Have never missed not having one!

Thanks for your replies 😊 LOVE Charles Theodore and Charles Lawrence, so nice!

I know we don’t have to have a middle name but I just like the flow of it.. plus my other 2 DC have one so wouldn’t want this one to feel left out!

Thanks all!
