I love Anders.
I'm not a big fan of most of the middle names because they seem pretty dated, but I don't mind Jacob, I guess.My sister has a doll from when she was in second grade or something named Jacob Anders after some of her favourite people.I like Leander and I prefer it in theory, but on an actual person, I think I prefer Anders.

WAY too boring and dated. It's extremely common here in Sweden, but not on babies. I know one Anders who is 19, another one who is like 27, and except for them all Anders's I know are 40 or above. Of yours I like Anders Jacob the best but I prefer Jacob Anders, or Jacob Andreas. I do prefer Leander.

Personally, I prefer Leander. To me, Anders sounds like a shortened form of Andrew rather than a proper name. I think Leander Michael, Leander Joseph, Leander Stephen and Leander Raymond would all be good combos, with Leander Michael being my favourite.

Anders is one of my very favorite names, it's so extremely handsome. (I'd use it even for a baby without any Scandinavian heritage). I love Leander too, but Anders gets my ♥Don't like any of the combos though. I guess Anders Quentin is nice.I like Anders with a more impressive middle name...I have Anders Soren as a combo.

I like Anders, and I prefer it a great deal more than Leander. From this, I like Anders Michael and Anders Quentin. However, it's tough to find a good mn for a name that ends in S, especially one that has an S-less variation.
