You and I have very similar tastes in names, so I'll chime in!

I think you can do Philip and Will, no problem.

I am having my 4th in a few weeks. I think he'll be Thomas, but also on my list were William and Peter. (I already have a John nn Jack.) Philip was kind of on our list, in memory of DH's cousin who was killed in an accident 2 years ago, but the whole thing is just too painful to revisit at this point still.

Good luck!

I love the name William Joseph. And it does sound classic so would go with your other names. The Phil/Will dilemma is a bit of a pickle. Hmm...I think I would go for William and just NEVER let anyone call Philip Phil. Or use a different nickname for William so Will never comes up....like Liam....


Good luck!

Everyone will follow your lead, I think, if you only want Philip called by his full name. :)
