Middle name help!

BrookeLC2BrookeLC2
in Baby Names

Hi! We don't know yet if we are having a boy or girl, but we've pretty much decided on a girl name already. 
For a boy, we like Reid, but cannot come up with a middle name. Our last name is Cameron. I can't really come up with anything that I think "flows" with a one syllable first name. We're open to suggestions! Nothing TOO out there though (Reid is unusual enough for us). Other names on our boy list (that were intended as first names, but maybe could be used as a middle name...?) were Andrew, Flynn, Ryder, and Patrick. 

Also, any opinions on whether Dylan Cameron is too many "n" sounds? My husband and family like that the best, but I keep thinking it sounds like there are too many n's in there. Same with Flynn Cameron?

 Thanks!! =)

    Dylan Cameron sounds fine.

    I like Reid James or Reid Alexander. I think you need a 1 or 3 syllable mn with Reid.

    I don't like Flynn, sorry.

    Reid Andrew and Reid Patrick are great!

    I actually think Flynn Cameron sounds better than Dylan Cameron, maybe something to do with the syllables.

    I like Reid.  I don't like all the "n" sounds with Dylan or Flynn Cameron.  I also just do not like Flynn. 

    Reid Andrew

    Reid Patrick 

    Reid Michael

    Reid Alexander

    Reid Daniel

    Reid Jacob

    Reid Nathaniel

    Reid Stephan

    Reid Thomas

     

    I feel like I need to mention that Reid Ryder is just bad.  Please don't pick that!  :)

    I like Reid.  Flynn Cameron sounds fine, but I'm not a fan of Dylan Cameron as it sounds sort of rhyme-y to my ears.

    The first thing that came to mind was Reid Alexander.  Reid Benjamin, maybe?

    I think Dylan Cameron sounds fine, not too many 'n' sounds.

    I love Reid Alexander Cameron.  I have a DS with a one syllable first name and his middle name is Avery.  So, Reid Avery Cameron is another suggestion.  I, too, think Reid needs a three syllable or more mn.

    I second (or third) Reid Andrew or Reid Patrick. I also like Reid Dylan. Very nice! I don't understand why PPs think you need a 3+ syllable mn, especially when your ln has 3. I just wouldn't do 1, like James, and Alexander is overused as a mn, IMO.
