HI- My husband and I are just starting our family. We don't want to know the sex of our baby so we are picking out both male and female names. So far we have Lillie Mae for a girl, and Jackson for a boy. We can't seem to find a middle name to go with Jackson. Can anyone help us?

Jackson _______ (DH's fn)
Jackson _______ (DH's mn)
Jackson _______ (your maiden name)
Jackson _______ (FIL's mn), etc

Jackson Robert
Jackson Eli
Jackson Elliot
Jackson Anthony

It's hard to just pull any name out for a mn, I would suggest coming up with alist of family names that you would consider and then narrowing it down from there. I'm a big fan of mn's being meaningful...just don't use Michael...Michael Jackson!

I agree with the pp that a family name might work best for the mn, that is what my dh and I do when thinking of names. If there isn't any you like or that will work with Jackson here are a couple:

Jackson Reid
Jackson Allen
Jackson Eric
Jackson Luke
Jackson Lane
Jackson Adam
Jackson Connor
Jackson Anthony
Jackson Kyle
Jackson Alexander
Jackson Nathaniel

There are a few that sound great with Jackson, although I like the shorter middle names better. Hope this helps!

I agree with one of the other posts - Jackson Alexander is a good fit......
