HelpRe: If I were to have kids tomorrow...
in reply to a message by Mustard
Hmmmmm… I'd probably go with Alexander Julius (although it is quite the name to live up to) and Maya Lily.
As a middle name, I don't like Nashville. I tend to not be a fan of city names (with some exceptions). I also think that if you were to raise her in Nashville it would be a bit weird, but it's a middle name and unless you would be calling her by both names most people wouldn't even know about it.
Matilda Mustard sounds like a character from Clue. Maybe Colonel Mustard's niece or something. I think that she might get teased as a child (but honestly, I think any kid with the last name Mustard will get teased a little at some point), but the name does have a catchy factor that she might embrace when older.
Emerson Mustard sounds fine.

Hey, thanks so much for taking the time to respond! I love Alexander Julius - why not give him a little inspiration off the bat? And Maya Lily is beautiful too! I've always liked both of those names!
Good point about not many people probably even knowing about her middle name. I definitely wouldn't call her by both. Yeah, I get Colonel Mustard jokes all the time and my first name doesn't have any alliteration or matchyness with Mustard, so it'll happen anyway, I figure. Might as well have a name that has a little catchy factor and is fun to say. She could always go by Tilly or Tilda if she hates the alliteration too. Very good point though, I appreciate it!
