Wow, I actually have 10...for once!
August Malachi "Gus" (as always ;)
Mordecai Noah
Micah Ignatius
Boston Tobias
Luca Veritas
Dashiell Indigo "DasH"
Oscar Theodore
Solomon Levi
Etienne Moses
Felix Isaiah
Of course this isnt a very realistic list, as Micah, Luca, Etienne and Felix are all out IRL, but hey, at least I got 10 ;)

August Malachi - Still fine.
Mordecai Noah - I love Mordecai. Couldn't use it, but I love it.
Micah Ignatius - Still nice.
Boston Tobias - I'm not a fan of place names, but Tobias is great.
Luca Veritas - This is turning into a huge guilty love for me. It sounds like some kind of Roman superhero but it's just so damn cool . . .
Dashiell Indigo - Dash I approve of highly. Indigo is nms.
Oscar Theodore - Very nice.
Solomon Levi - Very nice.
Etienne Moses - Like Etienne, and Moses is sweet.
Felix Isaiah - An excellent combination.
I think you should try for three-name combos. Why shortchange the boys?
Mordecai Noah - I love Mordecai. Couldn't use it, but I love it.

Boston Tobias - I'm not a fan of place names, but Tobias is great.

Don't say that...
I have enough trouble coming up with two boys names per combo, let alone 3! Plus I'd kinda like my boys to have my maiden name as a second mn, as there are 8 of us girls but no boys. Its a 3-syllable surname-turned-boys-name, just an idea though.
Feel free to steal Luca Veritas- Luca is out in real life, and my cousin is called Verity, so I probably shouldn't use Veritas either. But in my defence, I loved it before she was born! (Shes 17 months)
Got any mn suggestions for Dashiell? Indigo I'm not particularly attached to, I do like it but I can live without it :)

I was including cousins...
I have two sisters- Jessica and Kari (Jess was a boy till the day she was born which is how come she ended up with the most popular girls name of our generation) Then my uncle has 5 girls- Emily (11), Beatrice "Bee Bee" (10), Felicity "FiFi" (8), Annabelle "Belles, Annie" (6) and Verity (17 months). My aunty's have a boy and a girl each, but they have a different surname. Our family has lots of girls- out of 12 grandkids (including me) 10 are girls. (this is just my dads side btw)
Thankyou for all the suggestions! Dashiell Anthony is nice, but Anthony is my Grandad's name, and I don't want to honour him. James and Nicholas are my cousins! But I really, really like Dashiell Lucian (Luca doesn't sound right to me :( but nice idea) Dashiell Rowan is v. nice too! Lol at Dashiell Lief!
And while I'm here, let me just say that your parents have absolutley gorgeous taste in names. Isolde, Myfanwy and Anastasia is a sibset to wonderful for words. I see where you get it from.
Thanks again :)

I'm afraid I'm not feeling particularly compliant today...
Since Benedict and Jedidiah are currently my #1 and close #2 (and I have a very tough time deciding from day to day which is #1 or #2) I couldn't decide which combos with those names, so there are more than ten. 20, actually. Sue me. ;p

Luke Whittaker
Owen Brody

I love Edmond Clair! It sounds so refined and sophisticated. Morpheus is so nice, but nothing I would ever be bold enough to use. I also really like Nathaniel, Simon, Gregor, and Cornelius. Ptolemy Claude is also very nice.
Thanks for all the responses!!!! :)
