XP from Sept '11
Dh and I had barely discussed names, but as soon as we found out that we're having another boy, that's all we could talk about. Obviously, we like classic names, preferably family names. We're more than likely going to go with the middle name of David -- it's a family name, but it's also the name of a very dear friend of ours that was killed in Afghanistan last year.
Our last name is a simple, four letter LN....if that matters. And DS is William.

Samuel.
Henry is probably my favorite but not with William because of Prince Henry and William.

And another Princess coming 7/16
I voted for Henry because (and I'm assuming that your last name is one syllable) Jacob and Samuel might eventually be shortened to Jake and Sam, which I don't think would go well with a one-syllable LN. All of them are good names, though, and go well with David (and William too). GL deciding on a name!
I like Henry the most, but Henry and William might be a little strange.
I like Jacob a lot, but I would never use it since I think it's #1 on the SSA list for boys.
So I would either go with Henry or Samuel.
I had a difficult time deciding, because they are all fantastic combos. I finally picked Samuel, but which ever one you can't go wrong with any of them.
