If we have a boy we are debating between three names, Taitum Blake Mason Blake Gavin Blake I really like all three, but can't pick which one is the best! Our girls name is set, Adalyn Brooke
My vote also goes to Gavin. Taitum is really NMS (and the spelling seems odd to me; I'm sure I've only seen it spelled Tatum) and Mason is a bit too trendy for my taste. Really like Gavin, though!
Would you consider Blake as the first name? Love Blake Gavin. Or vice versa if you wanna keep Blake in the middle name spot.

My niece is an Adalynn. She's seven now, and she's been Addy since day one. Super common, but it suits her in all her sweetness.
For boys, Gavin is my pick of the three. Tatum is just ok, not great, but only if you lose the "i." Take it from someone who's had to correct the spelling of her name for my entire 30 years, I feel like that one little "i" being "cute" on a baby is going to be super annoying for him as he gets older. Mason is super trendy, and he'll likely spend his whole school life being one of two or three Masons in his class at school.
Thank you to everyone who left opinions! I'm leaning more towards Gavin than either of the others, although DH likes Tatum. I've always spelled Tatum without the "I" since i liked the name, and then my husband through it in as a different spelling. Whoops. Haha.

Ramblings aside, Gavin Blake has a good flow.

I like Gavin. I used to like Mason but I'm kind of bored of it. Don't like Taitum/Tatum at all.
That is all. That is all i have to say.
