Here is the game. You are pregnant with a son, your husband says "You have chosen amazing names for the rest of our children so whatever you choose I am sure I will love." He basically gave you carte blanch. With the exception of the middle name will be your father in law's name. Pick only one name, and list it.
The name can be a character from a book, movie, or tv show. It can be cutting edge, old fashion, or just a word that has meaning to you and love. Ready! GO!

but honestly it would depend on which of my FIL names we used. He is a junior so his MN is the name he goes by. If we used his actual FN I would choose
My H is a little iffy on the name because he doesn't like the nn Sam. It's also one of his cousin's son's names, but we only see them on holidays, so not a deal-breaker for me. But I would definitely use my late father's fn as the mn. Samuel Bradford. I really like the way it sounds with Harrison.
Started adoption process in Jan. 2011.
3 failed matches in 2012.
Surprise pregnancy in Aug. 2012. Precious baby boy "HC" born May 2013.
Began researching EA in 2014.
No longer pursuing EA due to fibroid complications.
Oscar without a doubt will always be the name of our first son. FIL name will never be used IRL. I don't think I will ever fully get over his actions at our wedding.

We're already planning to go with a naming scheme that gives our first son a name that starts with the same initial as H, and his dad, and his dad, and so on and so on. If we did that it'd be Benedict (Ned). But his initials would then be BBB. Also, I like my FIL, but his name is so very retro in a bad way and not a favorite.
If we went purely on names I'm loving right now, it would probably be Leonard or Hamish.

My son's middle name is named after my FIL so I guess they'd have the same middle name?

because it sounds better.
