Walter, Oskar or Sullivan?
We found out we are having a boy. I've always loved Walter. I had been on my list since I had my first. But it has lost its luster a little for me. Currently loving Oskar or Sullivan. This is our last baby and Im worried if I dont use Walter I'll regret it in a way.Oskar Walter or Walter Oskar is just to much for me. What are your thoughts?Siblings are Maxwell Thaddeus Raymond, Winnifred Estelle and Virginia Jolie Gwyneth.

Sullivan is best. Also fits siblings' names better.

Walter is very handsome, if it suits him when he's here go for it.I prefer Walter to both Oskar and Sullivan.Your son Maxwell has two middles, so when the time comes and he looks more like an Oskar you could go with Oskar Sullivan Walter.

I thought about doing 3 names again. Some days it's such a mouth full to say hahahhaha Love the suggestion though! Thank you!

I prefer them spelled Valter and Oscar, and of these two Oscar is my favorite. I think Walter/Valter might get a little V/W heavy as you already have Winnifred and Virginia. I'd go with Oscar. Maybe you could use all of them - Oscar Sullivan Walter?

I've never seen Walter spelled with a V. I feel the same with the girls have a w and v name. But Walter has forever been with me and I love it.We may use all 3!Thank you for your feedback!

I say you should go with Walter if that's the name you really love. Walter Sullivan is nice.

I don’t personally like the name Walter, sorry. I think Sullivan fits quite well, as it’s surname-y like Maxwell. Sullivan Walter seems like a good combo to me.

Sullivan seems completely out of left field with your other children's names. I am also not a big fan of Sullivan. I love both Walter and Oskar. I personally would go with Walter.

I so love both Oskar and Walter. I like Sullivan but its not as amazing as the other 2 I feel. Thank you for your feedback!

If you like Walter you like Walter, go with your gut girl. I personally prefer Sullivan and Oskar before Walter but it's your baby. Since you are down to 3 it also might be fair to wait until he is born and "see" which one of the 3 he most seems to be on arrival. Ik several of my RL friends are major advocates for not even considering names until they are pregnant because there is no way to know who they seem to be until they exist. Go with your instincts on the situation.

I won't have a name until he is here. I definitely want to met him before he has a name. Im just not sure of the names I like "go" well with the others. Or if I'm missing out on something.With Max that was the only name we agreed to. With Winn we had 5 picked out and the second she was born I said "we have a Winnie" and Virginia took 5 days to pick her name. Thank you for the feedback! Its much appreciated!

I like Oscar and Walter, but wouldn't have 2 W names

I'm not to crazy about the 2 w's but I so love the name. If Winnie would have been a boy she would have been Walter. My husband and I both start with M and then we had M....so I'm not to against it.Thank you for the feedback!

Sullivan is my favorite, but I think Walter might go better. Maybe Walter Sullivan?
