A middle name for Edward

Hello wise naming ladies

We have decided on Edward Davis if dc2 is a boy. Edward is a family naming tradition and Davis is my maiden name. I am however thinking of a second middle name and getting very stuck. I was wondering if anyone had any good ideas?

Our surname is Brown. Other names that have been on our "like" list before we decided to go with tradition have been:
Elijah
Elliott
George
Jude
Rafferty.

With Edward being quite a safe option I'd be quite happy to go with something a little more unusual for a middle name but I just don't know where to start!

TIA

Much prefer your list to Edward, particularly Elliott, George and Rafferty.

Edward Elijah Davis Brown
Edward George Davis Brown

.... would sound good.

IMO the other names aren't quite in the same style as the names you've already chosen.

Thank you

Am liking Francis and George. I agree that the other names we like are so completely different in style, it's been very tricky. The reason for the second middle name is because all the other Edwards in the family use their middle names instead of Edward! Thought we'd better give ours an option if he wanted it...
