Re: Stephen
in reply to a message by vigdis
Stephen is so dull and boring plus a little dated. Alexander is a great middle name, always flows well, though some consider it a filler middle name. The second cousin thing would not bother me.
I like Nathan, it was unfortunately ruined for me by a particular person but I liked it a lot before that. Is your brother in law close? As in are you around each other often enough that it would become annoying when they mishear their names? Also because it's a brother in law not a cousin of the potential child named Nathan it would at least not seem like copying, if anything it would seem like honouring. Also I don't thing Nathan and Natalie are too close but the nickname Nate with Natalie might be.. Little Nate and Nat running around together might get confusing, but also a kinda adorable. Though I'm assuming your niece is quite young.
