Re: Gideon and Maybelle
1.) Way too cutesy, I think.
2.) Awesome! I love Gideon nn Gidders. I wouldn't do Gideon and Ian as brothers, but father and son would be fine.

I was afraid Maybelle would be too cutsy, I can see her as a spunky 5 year old but after that not so much, although she could go by May. hmmm
That is exactly why I was asking about Gideon, my Husbands name is Ian and I have loved the name Gideon forever but was afraid it was too close. This all came about after he commented on how Lillian would be "Lil' Ian

How about just Mae/May and then a belle middle name?
Mae Bellatrix
Mae Christabel
Mae Claribel
Mae Isabelle
Mae Rosabel
Maybelle could be a very cute nickname for something like that.I don't think Lilian is too close either, since the emphasis for both Lilian and Gideon is on the "non-Ian" syllable. Tell your husband it's creative honouring! :o)
