I was thinking of Ezra. It's my nephew's name. I do like Tobias Ezra and Tobias Jonah as well as Tobiah Thomas (if you use Tobiah, that is). The other name that was considered for my nephew's two younger brothers was Solomon. You don't hear that every day! In fact, I'm not sure how I feel about that one.

I do like Ezra and it shares the Z sound with the other names the only problem is DH doesn't like it and it would have to be Ezra Malachi. Malachi is a name I have to use. Does Ezra Malachi and Rosalie Seraphina work?

I think so. Ezra Malachi sounds wonderful!ETA that you still have the issue of your dh not liking Ezra. BTW, when my nephew was born, I absolutely hated his name, however, it grew on me quickly. He's called Ez much of the time and I've come to really appreciate the name.

Here is my other question. If I use Ezra and we decide to have another child, am I stuck with A ending boy names?Ez is an adorable NN!!

Yes, Ez is pretty masculine and yet adorable, isn't it? When he was very young, we called him Ezzie and I'll admit I was a bit afraid that it would stick! ;-)Re: the a ending, I don't necessarily think you'd be stuck with a certain naming pattern. In fact, I think it would be more noticeable (in a not-so-good way) if you kept the same pattern. BTW, Ezra's brothers are Noah and Christian. Christian's name really surprised me because I wondered if he'd be named something like Elijah, Isaiah or Jonah or another ah name or even another type of OT name such as Solomon, but this works for them. And also, Christian has a different father than his older brothers (different father, different taste in names, I suppose).
