George John?

Thoughts?

Do you also have a Paul Ringo?

George William John is really nice

George John is also fine

George is a lovely first name

I think George John is absolutely fine as it is. Especially nice as John is an honour name for you. He will be George day to day, the majority of his life people won't use his middle name, so I don't think the fact that his full name doesn't sound quite as flowy as some other name combos is a big deal.

I have a George Jonathan. His grandfather was John but we thought George John was a bit short. His other grandfather was William, so I think George William John is a perfect choice!

Both very nice names OP but don’t sound good together at all… it’s the “Jo” sound at the begging of each and one syllable- just doesn’t flow at all.
However it’s not aweful and like you said you won’t be saying both at the same time anyway so if you like it then do it

And to the Beatles reference. That's a bit of a reach

I’m sorry OP but when I saw your thread title my immediate thought was ‘Paul Ringo’.

Yeah..I thought Beatles.And then , who'd put dippy George ahead of genius John?

George is lovely. John is lovelier.
Doesn’t matter what they sound like together as needed body cares about middle names. I filled out a form for my friend of 30 years the other day and had to ask what her middle name was!

My DS2's middle names are John George. We considered having them the other way round but felt it was easier to say them that way - not so many J-sounds colliding together!

The thing is, nobody actually ever says the first name and middle name, after the initial birth announcement.

He will be 'George Smith' not 'George John'

At his graduation (if he has one) and wedding (if he has one) he will be George John Smith, but in life, no-one will ever call him 'George John' so they don't need to have different initials or different amount of syllables etc.

It is a lovely name OP

*Obviously with whatever surname he has....which might not be 'Smith' for pedants
