I recently asked all of you your opinions on Carter and Molly. We are still very undecided about our third baby's name. My dh suggested last night that we name a boy Thomas Jay. His grandfather's name is Thomas J. (his birth certificate only has J.) but we would use Jay. My great grandfather's name was Jay. I think it is a strong name and has a nice flow to it (I think of the boy on My Girl!). The only thing is, we only would want him called Thomas. Not Tom (like his grandfather) or Tommy. My son would love it since he adores Thomas the Train. LOL Our other children are Chloe and Owen and I think Thomas goes fine with them. Do you think people would just call him Thomas? That's the only thing that is holding me back.
Thanks!

I have a cousin Thomas. He was always Thomas or Tommy as a kid, but now that he is 20, we all call him Thomas. I know his friends call him Tom or Thomas a lot. I don't think you will ever be able to control it totally, but when he is little, you can politely tell people that he is Thomas, not Tommy/Tom and most will do as you ask. I think Thomas Jay is a great sounding name!

I think so, if you insisted, my friend has a Thomas, and I've heard her call him Tommy like once or twice, and every other time Thomas, so that's what I call him!
