I like middle names with meaning. I would go with Theo since using the grandfather's name gives him a connection to an older generation.

Assuming Isaac sounds OK with your last name, that would be my choice. While middle names are used so rarely that I don't think the first name-middle name flow matters that much, Ethan Theo is a bit of a tongue twister! Ethan is a top choice without the Theo.

Asher is just mnsaa. I think it's the "Ash" sound which sounds too much like "ass" and too much like the over-used Ashley for girls. Hayden is too last-namey for me, plus it's being used for girls now. Kian is too trendy and unisex sounding. Easton would only be OK for me if it where a family name. Otherwise it sounds like the parents trying really hard to be prepsters.

Ethan Eric (DH is Eric)
Asher Theo (Dad is Teddy)
Isaac Theo
Isaac Teddy
Hayden Eric
Kian Eric
Easton Eric

I love the name Ethan, but I don't like it paired with Eric or Theo. I think it needs a longer mn. Maybe Ethan Theodore?
I don't like Easton at all.
I love the name Hayden! And I think it sounds great with mn Eric. That was my vote. Keep in mind that there are lots of names now ending in -ayden, but Hayden is one of the less common ones and it is a great name!
Kian- I'm not really sure how to pronounce this, but it looks nice.
I like Isaac, especially paired with Theo.

I like Hayden Eric the best.

Thanks for your input everyone. We are still TTC but thinking of names somehow gives me hope that this will eventually happen for us. We have been trying for 6 months.


Ethan and Isaac are my favorite on the list with Isaac probably inching out in front because it isn't as popular here. I would like to honor my dad whose name by the way is just plain Teddy, not Theodore, so even Theo was a stretch, lol. The name isn't my style so its hard for me to work with.


Thanks for your votes! Looks like we're going to have quite a while to come up with something so any suggestions that use Teddy or Eric as a mn are welcome!
