So my husband and I have been going round and round on our baby boy name.

McClain - sounds like a ln not a first name to me.

I definitely prefer Trey, I don't think McClain sounds like a fn at all.

I like McClain a lot - reminds me of the actor McLean Stephenson (M*A*S*H).

I have heard other people use Trey for first-born sons, etc., although it does mean "third." I'd say that's your call.

Never heard of Trey being for III. I knew a first child with this name, but as someone already said... it does seem to have that connotation in your family. McClain is not my style, and honestly reminds me of McCain french fries. I don't mean to be offensive in any way, but that is what came to mind when I read the name. Sorry, I would definitely go with Trey out of the two.

I love McClain, very cool! Trey is definitely III or third child/son for me. I would find it odd to meet someone named Trey. Good luck!

I've met several Trey's, and not a one of them was a third. Still, I'm not a huge fan of the name, but that's jmo.

I like McClain, and I agree that it is "cool"...but I can forsee a lot of confusion, since it does seem much more like a ln. Like, when he fills out forms, and it says last name first, and whatnot...idk, I just see it confusing a lot of people.

McClain reminds me of Die Hard - John McClane.
