I like Hayden and think it looks and sounds nice with Lydia. Hayden Jude is my top pick. Christian is my favorite first name from your list but (and someone else may have mentioned this) Hayden Christensen is a fairly well known actor so the similar "Christian Hayden" may not be the best choice... If things like that matter to youThey're all great choices though

I would remove your surname from here. Its not common enough to get lost in the interwebs. That being said, I love the option of Hayden! My favorite is Hayden Jude. I like Judah Hayden but I don't like middle names to start with the same letter as the last letter in the first name. It tends to make it feel like one name when said (i.e. Judahayden). My second favorite would be Christian Hayden. Very handsome and smart looking. However, I would say if you dislike the nickname Chris then I would go with Hayden Christian. I also really love Angus and Edgar, but I don't think they work in this case.

My favourite name is Judah and Edgar is also gorgeous, but I don't think either name flows very well with Hayden as the mn. Christian and Florian don't work with Hayden either imo. Hayden Jude flows ok, but Lydia and Jude sound far more like siblings to me, than Lydia and Hayden. Have you considered Jude Hayden instead? All that said, Angus Hayden is the combo that works best imo, if we look at the combos as they are currently.

I'm not a fan of Hayden, but I like Edgar, Florian and Angus. Florian Hayden doesn't flow that well though. I'd go with either Edgar Hayden or Angus Hayden.

Lydia Ivy is gorgeous - I think Edgar Hayden sounds very distinguished.

I personally like Florian a ton, but I think that Judah works the best with Lydia. Edgar is a great name imo, but doesn't match Hayden as well. So - I would go with Lydia Ivy and Judah Hayden.

My favorite is Hayden Jude. It has good flow, and I think it goes really well with sister Lydia Ivy (beautiful name, btw).

I am actually quite fond of them all, and feel that any would pair admirably with Lydia Ivy.Edgar Hayden may be my favorite. Christian Hayden is another neat one, but the two "n" endings seem a little odd. Judah and Florian are wonderful to see being considered. Angus is a good steadfast option, too.Best of wishes.

I think Angus Hayden or Edgar Hayden flow the best. Florian Hayden and Hayden Jude are not too bad either. I think Lydia and Edgar would be very strange paired together. The rest would be okay brothers for Lydia. Lydia and Judah or Lydia and Christian would be my favourite pairs.Of the list of first names, Judah is probably my favourite, I just really don't like how Judah Hayden sounds together.
