Middle name for Alex or Alexander

I am due in 1 week and have still not settled on a name! I have decided Alex or Alexander for the first name but need suggestions for a middle name! Thanks! Nothing like waiting until the last minute! Some thoughts I had were Alexander Chase, Alex Brendan, or Alex Jordan. My husband and I both liked Alex Michael, however, the initials with our last name spelled AMY, which I thought might lead to teasing later!

Chase, Brendan and Jordan all seem a little too trendy for the very traditional/classic Alex. Chase and Jordan flow well with it OK, Brendan does not.

here are some ideas for both Alex and Alexander.

Alex Benjamin, Alex Christopher, Alex David, Alex Joseph, Alex Joshua, (too bad about that AMY thing because I would like Alex Matthew otherwise), Alex Nathaniel.

Alexander Nathan, Alexander Scott, Alexander Lucas, Alexander Christian, Alexander Patrick.

good luck

Thanks for the suggestions. I really like Alex Benjamin or maybe Alex Nathaniel but haven't been able to convince hubby. I may still work on pushing one of these. My other son is Mason Christopher so Christopher is out, although I agree it works well. I like the 2 syllable first name with a 3 syllable middle name but there aren't a lot of options!
