I think Joaquim is much more nicer than Joaquin! I'm Catalan, though, so I'm biased because we use Joaquim in Catalonia, too. Also, I think the nn Quim is so nice!!
For a mn:
Joaquin Adão
Joaquin André -this doesn't sound that good with Joaquin, Joaquim André is much nicer
Joaquin Artur
Joaquin Aurelio
Joaquin Diogo
Joaquin Eduardo
Joaquin Elias
Joaquin Enéas
Joaquin Fabiano
Joaquin Fabricio
Joaquin Fernando
Joaquin Guilherme
Joaquin Gustavo
Joaquin Leandro -again, Joaquim Leandro sounds much better
Joaquin Lourenço -see above
Joaquin Mateus / Matheus
Joaquin Otávio
Joaquin Roberto
Joaquin Teodoro
Joaquin Thiago

I think Portuguese names are really nice...we share many names, in Catalan and Portuguese, too. :-D

I'm Portuguese too and I like Joaquim but I much prefer Joaquin also. Joaquin Raphael sounds great to me, I don't think it matters if it's Joaquin Phoenix's name.

---

A few other suggestions:

---

Joaquin Elias
Joaquin Sebastian
Joaquin Manuel
Joaquin Lucas
Joaquin Tiago
Joaquin Gabriel (I think this is my favourite)
Joaquin Filipe
Joaquin Alexandre

I actually like Joaquin Phoenix as a first and middle name. Of course, that would be odd unless you were a diehard fan. Joaquin is a personal favorite of mine so here are a few ideas...

---

Joaquin Alejandro
Joaquin Cristián
Joaquin Cruz
Joaquin Elijah
Joaquin Maddox (I think I've been putting Maddox w/everything lately but I really like this combo)
Joaquin Navarro
Joaquin Slade
Joaquin Sebastián
Joaquin Xavier

I love the name Joaquin. I have a friend who has a son named Joaquin Alexander. Here are some other combinations I like.

---

Joaquin Andre/Andrew
Joaquin Benjamin
Joaquin David
Joaquin Daniel
Joaquin Emilio
Joaquin Felipe/Phillip
Joaquin Gustavo
Joaquin Hugo
Joaquin Jaime
Joaquin Leonardo
Joaquin Marco/Marcos
Joaquin Mateus/Matheus/Matthew
Joaquin Miguel/Michael
Joaquin Nicolau
Joaquin Ricardo
Joaquin Roberto/Robert
Joaquin Rodrigo
Joaquin Samuel
Joaquin Sergio
Joaquin Vicente
Joaquin Xavier

What about Joaquin Gabriel?

---

Though I would not mind that Joaquin Phoenix's mn was Raphael, I did not know that. But maybe this is more well known in USA.

---

Though I do like Joaquim. Reminds me of the Swedish version Joakim (often nn Kim).

If you're Portuguese then you should use Joaquim, not Joaquin.
It's not common in young people/children, but here are some combos:

---

Joaquim Manuel (probably the most common one)
Joaquim António
Joaquim Alexandre
Joaquim Miguel
Joaquim Pedro
Joaquim Daniel
Joaquim Gonçalo
Joaquim Francisco
Joaquim Paulo
Joaquim Rafael
Joaquim David
Joaquim Eduardo
Joaquim Samuel
Joaquim Fernando
Joaquim Gabriel

---

This is what I can come up with at the moment. Sorry but since I don't really like Joaquim it's a bit harder for me to think of middle names.

---

Hope this helps :-)

Joaquin Luiz was the first combo that sprang to mind. Others:

---

Joaquin Adão
Joaquin Amando
Joaquin Bras
Joaquin Elias
Joaquin Érico
Joaquin Fausto
Joaquin Fernando
Joaquin Leandro
Joaquin Lúcio
Joaquin Olavo
Joaquin Pedro
Joaquin Pio
Joaquin Rafael
Joaquin Silvio
Joaquin Teodoro
Joaquin Tomás

Anything you like?
