HelpWdyto Ansel?
Wdyto Ansel as a boy's middle name?
How does it go with Galilee and Roland in a 3 name combo (and what order sounds best)?

I like Ansel very much. I associate it strongly with Ansel Adams, so It is a name ithat makes me wonder if the parents have a love of photography. The one little Ansel I know is the son of a photographer who chose it for that reason.
I prefer Ansel Roland Galilee or Roland Galilee Ansel.

While I wouldn't choose the name for Ansel Adamd, I wouldn't be worried that people would assume it, either. It's far from being a bad association.
Thank you.
Thank you.

I feel kind of neutral. It's unexpected, which I like but I'm not in love with it. I think I would like it for someone else's child though.
If only based on flow, I would go with Ansel Roland Galilee. I quite like that combo actually.

Thanks. I do like the sound of Ansel Roland, but I don't care for Ansel as a fn.

Ansel isn't my favorite name, but it's all right.
For a combo, Galilee Ansel Roland sounds best to me.

Ooo, cool. I gotta say, I am always intrigued to hear what you will come up with next. :)
Galilee Ansel makes for "Leanne" in the middle. So I'd avoid that.
Roland Ansel is okay, but they kind of smoosh together a bit like "danzle". Not a deal breaker though.
My first pick based on flow would be Ansel Galillee Roland. But I really really like Galilee in your family, so I'd advocate for Galilee Roland Ansel. So handsome.
Not sure I replied to your last one in time to get a response. Is Galilee Roland honouring Gilliland? I feel like that was your maiden name or something.

Yes, my maiden name is Gilliland. I'd like to use Gilliland in a combo, but not sure that'll happen. Galilee Roland is more for my middle name (Leigh) and my grandpa's middle name (Leland), though the similarity to Gilliland is definitely a plus. Galilee itself is for the biblical reference, as well, and Roland is from Stephen King's Dark Tower series.
(In case you're wondering, I really like Hosanna Lileas Rain for a girl, though I'm fairly confident dh won't go for it)
Thanks!

I love Hosanna so so much, but my husband wouldn't go for it either. :)
Yeah, I was definitely seeing Gilliland in Galilee Roland, but honouring Leigh and Leland totally works too. And the Biblical reference is nice too.
You're not pregnant are you?

6 weeks and praying hard. The last two pregnancies I miscarried at 8-9 weeks. I am soooooooo sooooooo soooooo nauseous this pregnancy, though, so I'm hoping that's a good sign.
1
I knew you had miscarried once. But twice? Man, that's so tough. I will pray for you and baby too.
1
Yeah. Almost exactly a year apart. Thank you for the prayers. Are you on fb?
1
No, I'm not on Facebook. Do you have a blog or anything like that?
1
No, sure don't. But I have started reading yours :)

I do like the flow of that. Thank you.

I've always liked Ansel and also Anselm.
I like the combo Roland Ansel Galilee the best, because I'm fond of Roland as a name and think it should get used as a first name more often! :)
Galilee Ansel Roland is also great though!

Thanks. Dh loves Roland, but I just can't picture a little boy Roland. Also, I'm really hoping to swing Galilee nn Gil.
1
But you could call him Rollie (to sound like Raleigh, not like Roly otherwise he'd probably get called Roly-Poly)! :)
1
I used to HATE Roly, but it's kinda growing on me. Roly Haston? (Haston with a long A sound)

I like it, but I prefer Anselm. Ansel on its own reminds me of Hansel a great deal, ala Hansel and Gretel. However, I'm certainly far from opposed to it as a middle name. Roland Galilee Ansel (or if I had my way, Roland Galilee Anselm) would definitely be an interesting and rather handsome combo. I really do like it!

It just makes me giggle, because: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ansell
I realise this won't be a problem in the US, but it's enough to do it in for me.

One of our friends said the name Magnus (one of dh's top 3) reminded her of Magnum condoms. Now, wouldn't Magnus Ansel be an ideal combo!
