Boys name with TNT initials

My husband and I cannot come up with a boys name. We would love the initials to be TNT after my brother, but don't really care if the names are the same as his. There aren't too many N names for boys to consider for the middle name, so we really need help with the first name. Our other son's name is Easton Dale (also named after family members), so we don't want anything really common, but nothing out of the ordinary either. Names we've thrown around have been Trent, Tade, Talon, but we aren't completely in love with any, so we would love any suggestions you may have.

I think there are definitely a lot of great T names for boys! What about...

Theodore, nn Theo
Thaddeus, nn Thad
Tyson
Thatcher
Talbot
Tavis (pron. Tay-vis)
Tate
Teague
Troy
Tristan
Tobias, nn Toby
Titus
Truman
Turner

Any that you like?

BTW, I think that the initials are a great way to honor your brother!

Love that you're using initials to honor him (and they're actually kind of "cool" initials at that LOL).

However, since his fn and ln will both begin with T, a good place to start would be by eliminating any that begin with the same T sound (or end similarly to your ln), if that makes sense. For example, while I love Tristan, and something like Tristan Thale sounds fine (the T and Th sounds being quite different), Tristan Thompson sounds quite funny. Likewise, Thaddeus Torn sounds fine, but Thaddeus Thomas or Thaddeus Thale sound odd.

So I'd limit your search to whichever T sound your ln does NOT begin with. Hopefully you KWIM. ;)
