So I feel a great urge to honor my dads name as the middle name, Brian. I like the Cas names, Cassiel, Cassius, Cassian. But I'm having trouble now that we want the middle name to be Brian because non really sound good with Brian. I wanted Cassian Brian, but a few have said that it doesn't go because they both end in "ian". I've been set on the nn Cas, so if you think a name that could be Cas as a nn and sounds good with Brian as the middle name tell me!! Last name is Dejesus (day-hay-zoos). Cassian Dejesus sounds great to me. I just don't know about Brian being in the middle but want to honor my dad. Help?!

Honestly, Brian is the sort of name that nothing sounds AMAZING with. It's just a sort of dated dad name. I don't mean that in a horrible way, it's fine. But it's going to be very obvious if you use it that its an honour name and not chosen for its fresh and exciting sound Grin so I don't think tou need to change a gorgerous first name to suit the middle name Brian. Nobody will call hom Cassian Brian anyway, just Cassian/Cass. So just go for Cassian Brian, or Cassian Theodore Brian.

Cassian Brian sounds absolutely fine. His full name, including middle name will only be said aloud once in a blue moon. If that often. I think it's lovely that you're giving him a name in honour of your dad rather than a random name picked because it flows better.

It's really not going to be often that you use the full name with his middle name, I'd just go ahead and use Cassian smile

This!

What about just using the letter B?

Cassias B Dejesus

Albus Percival Wulfic Brian Dumbledore - that's what I would go for

Cassian Brian would be great ! They may have the same letters at the end, but they are not pronounced the same way so they'd be fine together. Go for it !
