William is one of my favorite names so I do prefer that.

1. is liam ok on its own or do i need william as the full nn, and liam as a nn?
I think it can work on its own, but it depends on the situation. I can't remember if your Allie is a nn for Alexandra (I think it is). If Allie is her full name, I would use Liam as the full name, but I think Alexandra nn Allie and William nn Liam go better as sibs

2. how does william gregory parker/liam gregory parker sound?
Both sound fabulous; great flow.

3. with the ln parker, does it bring anything weird to mind?
No.

Other names I like are

Talan- doesn't go at all with Allie

Keegan- I prefer Keenan

Gavin- sweet

Seth- LOVE it too!

Camden- very trendy, strongly dislike it

Braden- see Camden

Dylan- eh, okay

Nicholas- lovely

Matthew- lovely, but popular

Connor- a bit tired of it

Domonic- LOVE it, spelt Dominic

Lucas- Like it, but prefer Luke on its own

I think Liam Gregory is a great combo, and I don't think you need William. However, I don't love the flow of Liam Parker. It somehow kind of runs together when I say it, but I'm not sure how to describe it. I really like Liam, and it's not too bad with your ln, but I do think some of your other choices flow better.

I LOVE Seth Parker, that's really nice. Lucas Parker is also good, I think Lucas is a great name. These would be my 2 favorites from your list.

Gavin and Braden are becoming very popular and trendy, at least in my area, so I would avoid them personally (although I especially like Gavin).

Connor and Dylan are also nice, but they don't have quite as much appeal or charm as Lucas, Seth, or Liam to me. Nicholas and Matthew are overused for my tastes.

Good luck and HTH!

William/Liam Gregory Parker is great. ;)


I'd personally use William, nn Liam, if nothing else to give him options as he ages. If he has another Liam in

1. is liam ok on its own or do i need william as the full nn, and liam as a nn? - I like Liam. It doesn't strike me as nicknamey, at all, though of course it can be a nickname for William, as you say. Liam is probably my favorite of the names you list in your message, then Seth, then Matthew or Lucas.

2. how does william gregory parker/liam gregory parker sound? - Both sound good to me. I like Liam better than William with Gregory and Parker.

3. with the ln parker, does it bring anything weird to mind? - no, nothing, at all

Talan - not my style, at all; to me, it sounds kind of made-up and trendy, and reminds me of a claw/talon (I'm not saying it is made-up, just that it sounds that way to me, don't mean to offend)

Keegan - not my style, either, but maybe because I am accustomed to this as a girl's name

Gavin - it's fine

Seth***** (love this name) - really like this one

Camden - sounds kind of trendy, and I tend to think of this as more of a girl's name now, though certainly it is a boy's name, more historically speaking

Braden - in theory I like it OK, but it seems like every little boy lately is Aidan/Aiden, Braden, Caden, Hayden, Jayden, Kaden, so personally I wouldn't use it

Dylan - it's OK

Nicholas - like it

Matthew - like it

Connor - like it

Domonic - looks way too much like "demonic" to me, Dominic is OK

Lucas - like it, or Luke

I like Liam as the full name better - I just think William is way too common, been around as a popular name for way too long

I like the name Gregory a lot

good luck

Either name sounds great; I would say William nn Liam just because I like patterns and if I'm not mistaken Allie is a nickname, isn't it?


Seth is an awesome name also. :)


Good luck!
