Is it too cheesy to use if the sibling is grace?

    You might get the occasional Will and Grace joke, but I think it's a good name.

    Will he go by Will or William? I would find it funny, but I wouldn't make the connection unless he went by Will.

    I did not make the correlation at all until someone mentioned Will and then it clicked, so I would say it should be just fine.

    The question is, will it bother YOU if people male the occasional Will and Grace joke? If the answer is no, then go for it.

    I totally didn't make the Will and Grace connection until someone else mentioned it, so I think it's ok. Beautiful names!

    Also, their peers will probably never really make the connection either. The shows been off the air for a few years already now, and as they age it will be less memorable.

    He's my fairytale, a dream when I'm not sleeping.

    I love the name and did not make the connection! I am sure their peers would never know either:

    Thanks for the replies! I can handle the occasional joke I just don't want people to think we are insane for having that sibset. I never really liked the show either! I would likely call him Will or Liam for short.

    We don't have any boys names we can agree on besides William which is a family name but my DH is bothered by the will and grace thing.

    I agree with everyone else, it's cute! I didn't catch the "will and grace" reference until I read other posts either!

    I didn't get the connection at first either. I say go for it, but things like this don't bother me. My son is Malcolm and is about to be a middle child. While my IL's make a "Malcolm in the middle" reference any chance they get, I don't think his peers will.

    I didn't make the connection either... Until someone pointed it out.

    I agree with PP that the show will have been off the air for a long time by the time LO's are older.

    My DS is named William - it was the ONLY boy name we could agree on when we were expecting. If we have a girl we are considering something along the lines of "Grace" And we call our son Will. I find it humorous, but not cheesy. It makes me giggle a little and I love it! :) William is a good strong masculine name, and Will makes it shorten nicely. I LOVE it! :)
