Baby Benjamin needs a middle name

Ok you ladies have helped me so much when it comes to naming our baby lol. Dh has decided we will go ahead with Benjamin but he will mostly go by Ben. However, he can't pick a middle name. Here's his top 3. Let us know what you think is best! Dh's name is Preston but he doesn't think it sounds as good. The other 2 have no significant meaning.

    Ours is Benjamin William, so naturally I like Preston the best.

    Love Benjamin! I think Preston is too much with such a strong first name. How about your husband's middle name?

    My husband doesn't want to use his middle name because that was his fathers middle name as well. His father has had very little contact with him throughout his life.

    I like Benjamin Preston because of the meaning behind it.  That being said, meaning behind names is a big deal in our family, and all of our chosen names are after family members.  Benjamin Blake would be my second choice though, as I really like the flow to it.

    If it were up to me, it would be Benjamin Preston. I would love to put his name in one of our boys names. But I told him he could pick the middle name since I picked the first name. He was up for some opinions, (the poll) though. I like Blake and Jace but I don't like that his initials would be BJ if his middle name was Jace. So I'd pick Blake over Jace.

    I love the name Preston so that's my pick. They are all cute names, though.

    I like Benjamin Blake. The two "B"s don't bother me and I think the one syllable middle name flows better with Benjamin. All choices are good ones, though!

    It's so hard to choose. I'm naming my son Jace, so I obviously like that name. I like the way Benjamin Blake flows though.
