Boy name—yea or nay?

cmerribury

My husband and I both love the name Malcolm for a little boy. I'd like the middle name to be Jeremiah after my grandfather. So...yea or nay on Malcolm Jeremiah? 

(For what it's worth his big brother is named Desmond Xavier...)

Good name, especially because it means something to you!

Yea. It's important to your family. No one much will see the middle name anyway.

My husband wants to name our son Malcolm with the nn Callum. I am not a huge fan or Malcolm so we are just going with Callum. Malcolm Jeremiah flows wonderfully though! Makes me like it a lot more.

We've discussed nicknames at this point, and I feel like Malcolm has SO MANY. Callum, Collum, Cole, Mal. The options are endless. Callum and Collum were both on our list as well, but since they are nns (though names in their own right as well) of Malcolm, and we love Malcolm we're just going with that. I think we'll probably decide what to call him when he gets here. Our first is still primarily Desmond, only Des when we are in a hurry or typing it out, so we may just stick with Malcolm most of the time.
