Louie Lennie

So far we only have one boys name that we both love, Louie. But I'm not sure on it when paired with our preferred middle name, Lennie (family connection)? Please can you share your honest thoughts, struggling with a decision. Thank you!

Use Lennie as the first name. Louis is overused and Louie is a ridiculous spelling.

My first thought would be a prospective nickname when older Lou-ney (Loonie)

Ohhhhh ... I'd actually say this is a distinct possibility.

Another vote for putting another name in the middle.

Maybe go with Louis not Louie - as it gives more professional, and less childish, also something like Louis Lennon or Louis Lennox works well :)

Remember this baby will one day be an adult male. Louis Leonard if you must.
