Rory Philip
or
Rory Clark

Stuck on a middle name for Rory. The two contenders we have are family names but can't decide between them.

Which name would you choose?

I'd probably go with the name of the relative who meant more to me. If you love both relatives evenly then I'd go for the one that sounded best with the surname i.e. Rory Clark Jackson sounds better than Rory Philip Jackson.

Rory Philip imo, Clark seems a bit surname like as if that's his surname not his middle name.

Both really nice. I'd choose the one that sounds best with the surname or the one where I like the initials best.

user1492757084 · 15/03/2023 03:04

Rory sounds great with both names.
