Calvin....what?--Name Help

oboeodo

I was wondering if you ladies could help a girl out.  My husband and I really like the name Calvin, but are struggling to come up with a middle name.  I thought of Murray today, and like the sound of that, but was wondering if anyone else had any other ideas.  Our last name is Charles so we are trying to stay away from names that are last names.  My husbands name is Daniel and he is often called Charles Daniels...which he finds annoying.

Thanks for the help!  We appreciate it!

I think @ICarriedAWatermelon‌ has a son named Calvin, maybe she will share his middle name?

Richard is the first name that popped into my head.

My son's name is Callum (close to Calvin) Elliot

Murray is a last name too. Bill Murray ring a bell?

I think a lot of names go well with Calvin:
Thomas
Michael
Gregory
Frederick
Jeffrey
James
Joseph
Howard
Jacob
David
Paul
Robert
Lawrence

Those are just a few off the top of my head.

Great list! Thanks! And you are totally right!! Ha. Bill Murray...

Just spitballing here...
Marshall
Maxwell
Emmett
Pierce (although that's kinda last-namey... I just liked how Calvin Pierce sounded)
Elijah
Xavier (3 syllables sounds good with Calvin)

Will you call him Cal? If I hadn't already named the dog Callie, I'd definitely pick some iteration of Cal for a boy (Calvin, Calvert). But she goes by Cal so that wouldn't be fair to the baby haha

Calvin John if you don't mind the possibility of him being called CJ later in life.

I'm pregnant with a little boy too and almost went with Calvin (well, Mark Calvin). But decided on another name. Good choice btw!

My nephew is Callum Duncan (Duncan being a family name) and their last name is a first name as well! My other nephew is Colton John so both are similar to Calvin! I think many names go nicely with Calvin and I don't think many kids get called their full names very often!
