Elias Micah Malachi

Pregnant with our 5th boy.

I like

Elias
Micah
Malachi (a friend told me it's pronounced ma-la-key which I actually prefer to the kai but I like both)

Which is your favourite? How would you pronounce Malachi? Do you have any similar names in your head floating about?

Thank you! Xx

I would pronounce Malachi Mal-Ah-Kye but Malachy like Mal-Ah-Key so I'd say it depends on spelling.

I prefer the spelling/pronunciation of Malachy and that's my favourite out of your list :)

I really like all three of your names! Micah is my favourite boys' name actually. Have long adored it but it's quite terrible with my surname, sadly for me.

I feel like Elias might be having a moment but I still only know one of them so it's clearly not that common. Eli is such a cool nickname too.

Malachi sounds very strong yet sort of creative to me. Gorgeous.

Ps I won't ask as it's probably outing but dying to know what you named your other boys given your great taste in names!

I'm biased. I have a Micah and his best friend is Elias they are both strong names.

If you look at it from a religious perspective
Micah - is considered one of the Twelve Minor Prophets of the Hebrew Bible and was a contemporary of the prophets Isaiah, Amos and Hosea.
Elias -is the Greek equivalent of Elijah

I do also like Malachi too I went to school with one. Pronounce Mal-a-Kai
