Baby Names

First Middle, or Middle First?

Which do you like better? We'll call him Blake either way. Last name is similar to Pandersenn. (3 syllables, begins with P)

*Sorry I don't know how to do a clicky poll.

William Blake P...

or

Blake William P...

  • Blake William... I think if you're going to call him Blake, then it'll be beneficial for everyone for that to be his given first name.

  • If you are going to call him Blake then you should name him that for his 1st name.
  • I like William Blake.  We have a John Mason that goes by Mason, but we just thought it sounded better than Mason John.  I also have an Andrew that goes by Drew, but Andrew sounded better. 

    Keep in mind that it is going to be kind of a pain.  The Dr.'s office calls me about John's appointments, and I'm like "Who????"  Or they write Andrew on all the visit cards, which is annoying. 

    If you want the one that is easiest, go with Blake William.  If you want the one that sounds the best, go with William Blake, IMO.

  • If you're going to call him Blake regardless, then I would definitely use Blake as the first name.

    My thoughts exactly. :)

    Simplicity's sake says to just name him Blake for the first name, but I think the name "flows" better with the order of William Blake.  

  • Definitely Blake William.

  • William Blake is a 19th century English poet and writer. Unless you want to honor him or his work (mind you, he is well worth honoring), I think you should go with Blake William.
  • If you're going to call him Blake, definitely go with Blake William.
