Name-wise, I am the opposite of your wife; male names come very easily to me and are highly loved, whereas the options for females never seem to escape a frilly daintiness, in my eyes... while I have no children, I worry that if I ever had a daughter that she would have the same distaste for her given name that I do for mine.

Moving on.

Out of your three combinations, Samuel Laurens Lester and Lucas Ulysses Lester both possess an alluring charm. Mason James is a very, very common pairing, from my experience... I believe that I have encountered three, and have read the mention of it a seemingly infinite amount of times on the Internet.

Henry and Jack are magnificent, by the way. I prefer Jack to be a nickname for John, though (which sounds splendid with the surname Lester, in my opinion.)

---

On a post somewhere below you spoke of a concern regarding Lucas possibly being shortened to Luke... I personally am acquainted with a Lucas (who is touching around 20-years- old) who, from my knowledge, has never been summoned by that diminutive. He has actually expressed a wish for Luke to have been his given name, and when I suggested he simply use it as a nickname, he stared at me as if I sprouted two extra heads.
Lucas is just not something that needs to be altered, and I feel that most people view it that way.

I didn't stray from the middle-names, or the corresponding first initial letter from your combinations; you seem fairly bonded to them. Feel free to flip-flop or tweak things, though.

Congratulations, and best of luck!
