Baby Names

A middle name for Abraham

My BF wants to name his first son Abraham after a long line of namesakes in his family. But the middle names have varied throughout the years. He said he wants his son to get abused and "toughen up" with the old fashioned name of Abraham.
So what flows with Abraham? Names we came across: Justin, Lucian, Zander......someone please help!!!!!

Re: A middle name for Abraham

  • Any names from your side of the family you'd like to use? Really, anything other than Lincoln would probably be fine.
  • Yes, Lincoln is definitely a NO NO, lol

  • MauiBliss, I understand your taken aback a bit. I was a bit surprised when he first told me this too but it wasn't meant to be as mean as it sounds. He doesn't seem to care for common traditional names and seemed to want to carry on a family name. I was trying to stay away from A names due to sounding like the "Duggar's", but Abraham sits right smack in the middle.

    He wants his son to get abused? Good reason for choosing a name...

    You should have left it at "it's a family name".

    How about Abraham Ellis or Abraham David or Abraham Henry?

  • I love Henry! You ladies are giving me great ideas
  • I have a 4-year-old named Abraham John. We considered Michael for a middle name but I felt like the M's ran together when pronouncing both together.
  • I love the name Abraham. It would have been my top choice for a boy EXCEPT..my older son is Isaac. I love Biblical names, but that sibset would have been too much.
