    I am confused.  You need help convincing DH to use Edward instead of Eugene or help picking out a first name for those mn?  Honestly, if ln is Green, I don't think I would use Eugene - it seems a little rhyme and doesn't flow.

    How about Edward Eugene Green? Compromise.Since it is a middle name, it will not be used very often, if at all.

    I am not thrilled with the middle name of my son, but I knew it meant the world to my H to give him his fathers name for a MN. Sometimes you have to let go.

    Eugene Green? Just tell him it's silly because it rhymes.

    He's not asking for it as the first name.  If it means something to him, can't you compromise?

    Since your last name is Green I think you have more than enough legitimate reason to not use Eugene. It rhymes too much for my taste.

    His Dad's middle name? I always thought of honoring people with their first names, assuming those are the names they use. I really have no attachment to my family members' middle names.

    I really don't care for Eugene, esp with the last name Green. It's very clunky!

    Honestly, I think both parents really need to feel comfortable with any name for it to be a viable option, even if it is a family name.
