[Opinions] Nicolas or Nicholas?
As I have already told you we think about Adam Nicolas as a boy combo for our baby (btw we haven´t decided yet). We have discussed about the spelling of Nic(h)olas. In Germany it is spelled Nicolas to 90% and it seems to me that the spelling Nicholas is more often in the States. Which one do you prefer -Adam Nicolas or Adam Nicholas- and do you think there will be problems with the spelling Nicolas?
Thanks!

Nicholas.
I think both are perfectly acceptable. It's just my personal preference for Nicholas. Since it would only be the middle name, I wouldn't be too concerned about spelling it Nicolas and having some people put the H in. You don't use your middle name all that much. So I wouldn't use Nicholas just because it's the more popular spelling if you really want to use Nicolas.

I only like the spelling Nicholas, as it looks much more complete and masculine then Nicolas. I suppose I don't find the spelling Nicolas masculine because it reminds me of the female name Nicole. But, I really think the h rounds out the name nicely.

I guess it's not that much of an issue with a middle name. I prefer it with an h but if you like it without then use that!

I prefer the spelling Nicolas, mostly because I have a weakness for anything unusual, and the normal spelling where I live is Nicholas :-)
Since it's a middle name, I wouldn't worry about spelling problems.

Personally I prefer Nicholas but either way, its a nice name and I don't think there should be that much trouble with the spelling.
