Need middle name for Caspian

35 replies

My husbands top choice is Caspian Altair (after the stars) which I also like just not as much as he does. I like McCoy, Richard, Ronan, Henry, Jasper, Louie, Alistair, Fletcher, Reid as potential middle name options but I’m not if any of them really match well with Caspian. What do think? Any suggestions?

More seriously, I like the name Caspian but I'd definitely go for a plain non-pretentious middle name to balance it a bit.

Caspian Lee
Caspian James

I agree with PP, I'd balance it with a more mainstream name. Caspian John or Caspian James sound good to me.

From your list the only one I think really wouldn't work is Jasper - two 'asp' sounds together would be weird.

I like a single syllable name with something like Caspian

Gray
Scott
Roy
Blair

James sounds lovely with Caspian however it’s not a name we can use.

Not Charles or Christopher... you'll end up with the Caspian C.

Kittykatmacbill · 13/05/2022 21:46

Definitely a plainer name, could you not look in your family for inspiration?

Caspian Jake or Jacob?

User6761 · 13/05/2022 22:09

Alistair is nice but prefer Alastair/Alasdair spellings. Also like Ronan and Richard from your list.

I like Caspian Alexander.

SneezesHaveStarted · 13/05/2022 22:44

Of yours, I like Caspian Reid best

SneezesHaveStarted · 13/05/2022 22:46

Or if you want more mainstream, then Caspian George sounds nice.

Hortensiateapot · 13/05/2022 22:49

Caspian is an amazing name.

I think one syllable too… something like Fox would make him sound like an instant film star
