Brendan

My husband just suggested Brendan, which I think I like almost as much as Colin, which we seem to think is a bit too close to Connor.

-What do you think of Brendan Nicholas Peck (too run-on)?
-How about Brendan Riley Peck?

Our other son's name is Connor James

*We had been considering Aidan, which we just don't feel is as strong as Connor, and combined with all the Braedan, Jaden, etc's, it's become a bit boring to my ear.

Thanks, as always ~

Brendan Riley Peck is great. A very nice combo and it works really well with older bro Connor James.

Brendan is one of my absolute favorite names! My 6 year old cousin who is 100% Irish is named this and a beautiful little boy. Brendan Nicholas Peck is very masculine and sounds great!!

I'd go with Brendan Nicholas Peck because its equal to Connor James, but definitely not identical (Riley is just to trendy, while Nicholas is classic / traditional like James) and with a short ln you don't have to worry about the length of the names.

Well, since I'm in the minority I guess maybe I shouldn't bother .. but I voted in the last election too.

I like Colin and Nicholas better. I also like Brandon better - Brendan and Aidan are both about the same 'strength' to me, and I agree with you about not 'as strong as Connor.'

Riley frankly bores me to tears, since it's now a trendy name for girls, but middle names are no big deal.

Anyway, Brendan R. Peck sounds good. I just like Brandon R. Peck better.

I love Brendan, it's one of my favourite boys' names, plus it goes really well with Connor because they're both Irish. Not really sure I like either of the middle names though - if it was me I'd go for something like Thomas or Michael, but that's just my opinion.

I love Brendan. It's definitely the best of all the Brendan, Brandon, Brayden names.

Both of your combos are great, but I prefer Brendan Riley.
