Help[Opinions] Caius
Some weeks ago I asked your opinion on Gaius. You pointed out that it would remind people of the word "gay" which is not exactly a good association, so I've decided to drop Gaius. Still, I like its variant, Caius; not as trendy as Kai, not as 80s-female as Kay. It has ancient Roman connections, which is good.
However, it is hard for me to come up with mns. As you've noticed, I like to pair slightly unusual fns with better known or classic mns. Here's what I came up with:
Caius Tate - I like this one best, but I don't feel that click in my mind that usually tells me when I've found the perfect combo
Caius Elliot
Caius Henry
Just so you know, my favourite combos are
Noel James
Jude Arthur
Nigel Atticus for boys, and
Mira Clementine
Leia Alice
Nora Estelle for girls.
Edit: lie --> like :-)
All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again.

I love Caius. Caius (or Kaius) is used in Finland.
I would pair with Caius with a traditional and long name.
Caius Benjamin, Caius Jonathan, Caius Anthony, Caius Alexander, Caius Daniel, Caius Gabriel, Caius Jeremy, Caius Timothy
From your suggestions, I like Caius Henry best.
I really like your favorite names.

I like Caius, though Roman-type names are very yuppie-trendy at the moment. (Sebastian being the worst culprit, then the rarer Lucian etc.)
Caius Tate - Lovely sound but a bit of an odd pairing. Caius is a return to the ancient, and Tate is the opposite: modern American.
Caius Elliot - A bit awkward to say. Again, I think the middle name is too modern for the first name.
Caius Henry - Really handsome. Henry is a bit dull but works here because the fn is unusual.
