Middle Name for Eli

Eli is now on the top of our list for our hypothetical boy, but we are having difficulty coming up with a middle name for Eli that we both love. What are everyone's thoughts on the MNs we have come up with so far and does anyone have any suggestions? TIA.

Eli Evan (DH's Favorite, but I'm not crazy about)

Eli Isiah (My favorite, but DH isn't crazy about)

Eli Graham

Eli Carter

Eli Walker

Eli Silas

Eli Mason

Eli Alexander

Eli Parker

Re: Middle Name for Eli

  • I like the ones that start with consonants, not vowels. Some other suggestions: Eli Nathan Eli Richard Eli Christopher

    This. I don't like the glottal stroke that comes from ending the first name on a vowel and then starting the middle name a new vowel.  It doesn't roll off the tongue as well.

  • Eli James, Eli Robert......
  • Eli Graham is my favorite from your list, but Eli Parker is nice, too.

    I really don't like Eli Isiah because of the eye-eye sounds backing up to each other (if Isiah is prn like Isaiah, that is.)

    Eli Beckett / Eli Gabriel / Eli Jonathan / Eli Zachary

  • I like Eli Alexander out of your list. My hubby and I decided that if we were to use Eli in the future (it was on our medium list, but is not for this babe), we would use Eli Anderson (Anderson being DH's mom's maiden name). I like the sound of the three syllables after Eli.

    Isiah is prn like Isaiah.

     Thanks everyone for the suggestions and opinions.

  • I've always liked this name. I like Parker the best out of your list. I also like Eli Marcus.

  • I like Graham or Carter best from your list. I also think the mns that start with consonants sound better with Eli than those that start with vowels.

    This is my DS. A fine name, if I do say so myself. Big Smile
