My husband and I are looking for a first name. He wants to name the baby after his father (Richard) but I dont want that to be the first name. His brother is named after their father... any ideas?

Use Richard as the middle name; that seems to be the best compromise.

I would just pick a first name that you like and use Richard as the mn.

richard is my husband's name too. I dont like it at all. Its very old fashioned. I know a million richards. I think maybe as a middle name it would be better though. It's just very hmmm...it kind of reminds me of an old man to be honest

There's also the more obscure Warrick.
