I like Evan, but it seems odd paired with Jonathan (since people often relate it to John, per its shortened form). So basically when I look at Evan Jonathan I mentally think "John Jon." You have Jonathan paired with Bradley, so why not Evan Bradley? Just a thought. ;)

For now, my vote went to Edward.

ETA: I just realized you were the one trying to honor a John Andrew (saw your OP below). ;) I had a neat thought, though I don't know if it's your style, but have you considered Evander? As you already know, Evan is a Welsh form of John, and happens to be spelled out literally at the beginning of Evander, and Ander (also spelled out literally, at the end) is the Basque form of Andrew. EVANder/evANDER ... see what I mean? So while it's not the actual origin, in your case Evander would make perfect sense as a combination honoring John Andrew. It also works great with Antonio, btw. If you're into nns, you could take your pick of shortened forms here -- Evan, Van, Ander(s), etc. Definitely too good to pass up if it were me!

Since Jonathan isn't a form of John, why not try one of the John variants? I notice that you already have Evan on there. Some that I really like for you:

Ian/Sean/Evan Bradley
Ian/Sean/Evan Daniel
Sean Edward

I voted for Matthew Jonathan because Matthew is the first name I like the best of your list - however, I don't like the idea of both the first and middle having the "th" sound in them

I like Evan the best out of your first names but I think it sounds akward with Jonathan. I do like Evan Matthew a lot better, I think that sounds really cute.
