guess the next nephew
My brother and his wife are due to have their third baby in the next two weeks. They have two boys named Jaden Timothy and Bryce Lewis. They know they are having a boy. So what are your guesses for what they would name a boy to go with Jaden and Bryce?(For those who remember, this will be the 9th grandson in my family. There are no granddaughters and the oldest grandson is 4.5 years old. It's a gongshow!)Three boys nappin', one mama namenerdin'

I never thought of Finlay for them! That would be amazing!! I really dislike the first names they have used, so I'm having trouble coming up with hopeful guesses for them. But Finlay would be awesome.

Jayce, Jace or Jase.Jaxon, Jaxson, Braxton or something similar.

Are the middles honoring anybody? It'd be hard for me to guess middle names unless I knew that...
I'd guess maybe...
Colton
Connor
Dakota
Landon
Dylan
Tristan, or...
Miles...
As for middle names, if neither of the other boys are honoring, I'd go with James, Jacob, Peter, or Matthew for middles.

Good question. Both middle names are honouring. My brother's name is Paul, so Timothy is from the Biblical Timothy - companion and apprentice to the apostle Paul. Lewis is for C.S. Lewis, Christian theologian and author. For this one my middle name guesses would be related to Adventures in Odyssey (a radio drama we were addicted to as kids) or music (maybe Toby Mac?). Landon is very nice, but probably unusable because of their last name. Dylan or Tristan or Colton seem like good guesses. I wish it would be Miles.

What a nice use of Timothy!If they wanted to stay with C.S.Lewis, they could use Jack, that, I read, is what he liked to be called, rather than Clive.(or they could use Clive, anyway, since they have a "J" name.)Clive is kind of uncommon.

I like the use of Timothy too.I also know a dad named Jonathan whose son's middle name is David. I'm assuming it's the same idea what with the Old Testament buddies Jonathan and David.Now I'm thinking about what my husband and I could have done, since his middle name is Benjamin. We could have used Joseph. :)

I have a son named Joseph.His two middle names are his father's, and paternal grandfather's.(Arabic names, and they identify my son a bit too closely.So I won't say them).

YAY for odyssey! My boys looooove it and so do I! :) Miles would be adorable...

OhgoshAdventuresinOdysseylovethatradiodramasosososomuch....*kaff* Well, if it's something maybe related to Adventures in Odyssey, I think Connor Avery might make sense (John Avery "Whit" Whittaker), or Connor Riley (Tom Riley), or Connor James (James "Jimmy" Barclay), or maybe even Connor Eugene (Eugene Meltsner). (Yes, I'm kinda stuck on Connor for this one).

Yup, Adventures in Odyssey rocks!!Connor Avery would be awesome. Or Connor Barclay. Connor Kendall. Connor Jack or Connor Allen.

Ooo yes, another good guess. Not that I know the answer, but that does seem like a reasonable guess to me. I hope that it's not Hunter, as I really don't like that name.

Maybe Connor Douglas. I don't know, I just think it fits the style.(Ironically, running both Jaden and Bryce through Magic Baby Namer, Connor is one of the suggestions. Perhaps I'm on to something...)

Ooo, Connor is nice. I would approve of that, I think.

Well, these names seem to fit the style...
Rylan James
Leyton Andrew
Skyler Adam
Austyn Peter
Aiden Daniel
Braiden William
Miles Jonathan
Paxton Richard
Spencer Thomas
My money would be on Rylan, Miles or Leyton.

Oh gosh, I hope they wouldn't have an Aiden or Braiden when they already have a Jaden!Miles would be awesome!! I think Rylan is a very good guess.

You never know these days!I almost listed Caden... but I thought that would be overkill. ;)
