Baby Names

Lincoln

My husband and I had decided on the name Lincoln for a boy years ago. We just found out I'll be having a baby in feb. while we still love Lincoln for a first name, we cannot decide on a middle name. My hubby is pushing for Fox since I continually shot it down as a first name. Any insight or suggestions?

  • My nephew's name is Lincoln David and I think that sounds really nice. When we were trying to figure out a middle name we wanted it to be tied to someone we really loved/respected in our circle of family and friends. So I literally opened up a word document and my hubby and I brainstormed all of our fave males in our family/friends and then I took all of those and paired it with the first name we had chosen. I liked being able to read the different pairings and see how it looked and sounded. This strategy helped us narrow it down for a middle name!

  • When Lincoln was at the top of our boy list we were going to use the middle name Miles.
  • My hubby would totally want Fox as a middle name since it's been his username on every game growing up. I'm so glad he hasn't thought of it yet. Anywhoo I love Lincoln its on our very short boy name list. For a middle name I'm thinking Clark, Joseph, or Ryan would be good middle names.

  • Lincoln Fox? Please no

    Arthur, Bryce, Charles, Cade, Dean, Edward, George, Grant (though maybe a little too Civil War with Lincoln), Francis, Gage, Jacob, John, James, Matthew, Chase, Miles, Timothy, Gregory, Vincent

  • DS is named Lincoln and his MN is my maiden name.  His full name sounds like a law firm, but I married into a family of lawyers, so it works, I guess.

    It's debatable.
  • Lincoln is on our boy short list. If we use it we will use my dads middle name. Lincoln Keith
