My 1st son is due in two weeks. My husband is stuck on David Isaac, i'm still not sure about Isaac. Can anyone think of a better middle name for him? also he has already taught our 5 and 3 year old daughters that thier new brothers name is David Isaac so is it even a good idea to change it now and possibly confuse them?

If the rest of your family is already set on the name then I would say stick with it. But what first came into my head that is similar but I think sounds a little bit better is David Isaiah. Just a thought, let us know what you decide.

I love the name Isaac and I think it goes well with David, but it's your baby as well as your husband's, you know? So if you don't like it then you should definitely change it... your girls won't be confused, once he's born, they'll get used to calling him whatever he's named, and chances are you won't call him by his first AND middle names all the time, right?

I like:

David Joshua

David Michael

David Jenson

David Christopher

David Scott

You could still change his name ... the girls'll figure it out in time.

I agree w/ you - I don't like Isaac at all. How about...

-David James
-David Anthony
-David Lee
-David Charles
-David Matthew

And how about your dh's mn or fn or a relative's mn or fn?

I think David Isaac is PERFECT together. It is a wonderful name and SO strong. It goes wonderfully. I think you should stick with it.

i bounced your names off hubby and now he really likes the sound of david scott-isaac. (scott is his fathers name) it sounds good but i really don't like the idea of two middle names. so i think i'm just going to concied and let it be isaac before i dig myself in too much deeper. * thanks to everyone who had something nice to say about the name isaac, it made me look at it in a different light.
