I am thinking about this for my son. I just want to know if it'd be ok to use Xander as a full name or if I should name him Alexander nn Xander. The thing is I don't really like Alex and I'd be worried everyone would call him that (though I guess if I introduced him as Xander people would call him that anyway). I haven't run it by Grant yet but a few months ago I mentioned Alexandra for a middle name for a girl (I told him it would honour my mum) he said it didn't sound like a bad idea so maybe I can get him on board with Xander or Alexander nn Xander. My mum's name is Sandra and I'd like to honour her and I thought Alexander or Xander would be a good idea, though Skye's initials are the same as my mum's anyway so I guess it might not matter if I DON'T honour her with this baby.

What do you think of these combos?

Alexander Leo or Xander Leo (Leo is after my grandmother, Leonie)
Alexander Michael or Xander Michael (I don't like Michael, but Grant does)
Alexander Alan or Xander Alan (Alan after my grandfather, its also my dad's middle name)

Thoughts?
