Middle names for Troy

Hello! We have decided on the name Troy for our first little boy, and now we’re looking for a middle name. Our surname begins with S and is two syllables. We like the name Jameson as my Grandfather and Husband are both named James and Jameson means son of James, however my husband doesn’t like the link to the Irish Whiskey brand. I like the idea of having a longer (maybe 3 syllable) middle name because Troy is a strong, but short name but I’m struggling to find one that fits. In the family we have Maynard, Trevor, Steve, and Denzil but none of these seem to fit either. Any ideas? 💡

I think Troy James is fine, I don't like Jameson.
Otherwise I like Troy Sebastian.
Troy was one of my favourite names when I was 12 in the 80s, along with Gary and Scott! I think there was a character in Battlestar Galactica (the old version) which is why I liked it.

You could use James instead of Jameson, and Stephen instead of Steve. Those sound nice, and would also honour your relatives.

Troy James Surname
Troy Stephen Surname
Troy James Stephen Surname
Troy Stephen James Surname

I love all four, but Troy Stephen James is my favourite.

James is great but overused as a middle name.
I wouldn't have made the connection between Jameson and whiskey, but I'm not a whiskey drinker.
You could use a different form of James, Hamish is lovely.

Jamieson instead of Jameson to avoid the Whisky connection?

I would stick to James or Jamie as a modern alternative. (Not that Jamie is particularly modern but probably a few centuries more modern than James).
