    Honestly?  Brodie/Brody is really popular in my area + every Brody I've known/met has been a jerk.  Sad  Michael's fine, but it's been one of the most popular boys' names for like - ever!  So....I dunno, not really my style...sorry!

    I love Alexander. Trey is really cute as well, but I like it more a nickname than as a formal first name (although it could be because the one Trey I have known was a jerk!).

    One of my preschoolers last year had a little brother who was John LastName III and they called him Trey for a nickname. I think it's adorable that way!

    I have never thought of Trey as a legal first name.  I have only ever heard it used as a nickname for a 'III" - ie. the real name is John Parker Smith III but he goes by Trey.

    It just seems odd to me.

    How about Trent Alexander?  Or Troy?

    Brody is better than Trey.  Trey is NMS at all.

    Trey is used often around these parts as a nickname for boys/men who are IIIs.  So whenever I hear that name, I think it's a nickname that just refers to the fact that whatever his legal name is, he's the third to bear it.

    trey alexander doesn't flow well. i think you should use a 2 syllable fn with alexander and make sure it doesn't end with a vowel sound. otherwise, i like alexander for a fn.

    This. To me it's like naming a kid "Junior" or "Chip."
