[Games] NamesAreAwesome
So we have had another daughter and a son! As I've said before, I'd be very happy if we cpuld honour my brother Gabriel Hector in some way as we name our son. It could be a variation of one of his names or a name associated with one of his name, but somehow honouring..
For names otherwise, do you want to make a list of names like last time? :)Some names that I like (on a boy, because you already have some examples of girl's names):
Leonidas (or any other name starting with Leo-, nn Leo)
Adam
Noah
Marcus/Marc/Markus/Mark
Jordan
Avery
Chance/Chase
Romeo
Adrien/Adrian
Xavier
Benjamin (nn Ben, Benji)
Samuel (nn Sam)
Arcadius (nn Caden)
Archer
Wilson/Winston
Tristan
Victor
Dante (nn Dan)
Florian
JulianWell, as you can see my name style for boys are mostly Biblical, Historical, Italian and French, but I'm open-minded! What are your thoughts?

Of yours, I like these ones best: Leonidas (or any other name starting with Leo-, nn Leo), Adam, Noah, Marcus/Mark, Jordan, Adrian, Benjamin (nn Ben, Benji), Samuel (nn Sam), Winston, Dante (nn Dan), & Julian. A boy's name that I really like that is similar to Leonidas is Leopold. A name similar to Adrian that I like better for some reason is Hadrian. Suggestions:Leopold "Leo" Gabriel?
Marcus "Mark" Gabriel?
Hector Benjamin?
Winston Noah?
Samuel Dante?
Leonidas "Leo" Julian?
Jordan "Dan" Leonidas?
Leopold "Leo" Benjamin?
Benjamin "Benji" Dante?
Gabriel "Gabe" Winston?
Winston Gabriel?
Hadrian Gabriel? (nn suggestions?)
Dante "Dan" Hadrian?
Julian "Jules" Samuel?
Leonidas "Leo" Julian?
Hadrian Mark?

Also, we should think about our daughter! I looked at some combos from last round that we both liked;Sophia Amber (nn Soph or Sophie)
Susannah Iona (nn Susie or Sanna)
Helena Madelyn (nn Elly)
Juliana Odette (nn, Jules, Julie or Ana)
Rachel Odette
Octavia Hannah (nn Ava or Tavi)
Alice Sophia
Hester Iona (nn Essie)My heart leans towards Hester Iona and Rachel Odette, but truly, I like all of these!

Wow, I like all of these!
Leopold "Leo" Gabriel was a favourite to me, but I'm not sure about the sibset Leah and Leo? What do you think?
Another one I really liked was Hector Benjamin! Not to mention Marcus "Mark" Gabriel!What do you think of Hector Hadrian?

In Response to BothI think I like Hester Iona (nn Essie) the best for the little girl. Hector Hadrian has too many h's if you ask me. Leo and Leah would be a little awkward. If we went with Leopold Gabriel, maybe his nickname could be Gabe, since Gabriel would be his middle name. Hector Benjamin and Marcus "Mark" Gabriel would be good second/third choices, too.

Maybe it's a little too unconventional to call the little boy by his middlename (as in Leopold Gabriel)? I'd say it's better if we settle with Marcus "Mark" Gabriel in that case. Have we reached our decission? :)
