Any ideas on boys names that go well with the surname Wilson? We like Jack for a first name but I'm not sure about a middle name that goes with Jack and Wilson? Here's some of our ideas, what are your thoughts? Any new ideas welcome...

Jack Stuart Wilson
Jack William Wilson (is this too much of a mouthful to say?)
Lewis ? Wilson (Does this go?)
Ryan ? Wilson
George ? Wilson

Most names would go well with Wilson.

Re. middle names I wouldn't combine William with Wilson, but the other ones are fine.

Some other ideas

Charles Wilson
Quentin Wilson
Stuart Wilson

I like Jack but not sure about Stuart for a middle name and yes Jack William Wilson is a mouthful but then again, how often do we say our full name?
What about Jack James? (JJ for nickname)
Or Jack Thomas?

cheesesarnie · 09/01/2009 23:52

love jack wilson.
maybe benjamin as mn.
samuel

nula · 10/01/2009 00:00

Wilson if a fab, strong, fairly neutral name which goes with anything!

I think it's a very common Scottish surname so lots of good Scots names should do I think these all go Ewan, Stewart, Campbell, Alexander, Fraser.

Use a combo of various ones for middle names or a family name as a middle one.
