Re: Which middle name Oscar or Gabriel?
in reply to a message by Cristi-es
It completely depends on the surname. With certain surnames I tried with it I perefered Oscar and for others I prefered Gabriel. They both go well with Jonathan but most names do.
Without knowing the surname this what I have to say. Even though I personally prefer Gabriel to Oscar, I'm leaning slightly towards Oscar since Jonathan is so common and popular. In the US Gabriel is pretty popular at the moment but I forget if you are in the US. I'm feeling like you aren't in the US though.
Is Jonathan more your choice or your DH's? I know Gabriel is more your choice and Oscar is more your DH's. If Jonathan is more your favorite then maybe go for Oscar and if Jonathan is more your DH's favorite then maybe go for Gabriel. Has the naming of your other children been fairly equal or has one of you slightly dominated so far? Because I personally like the naming process to be as equal as possible, but that's just me.
