So I'm sure that my baby boy's name will be Oliver (hope I'm not copying too much @ABColeslaw, but I loved the Ollivander reference and DH needed a more traditional version). Baby girl will be Caroline Marjorie. What should Oliver's middle name be?

I love the name Oliver! Sadly, DH wouldn't get on board with it. I think Oliver Owen has a nice ring. I also like Oliver Henry as well as Oliver James.
I think Henry, Benjamin, and Patrick all sound good, but Benjamin gets a leg up because of being a family name.

Aww I LOVE the name Oliver! We've just found out we're Team Blue but DH vetoed Oliver ages ago
While I love Theodore, and Benjamin is really nice, I feel like they're a mouthful after a 3-syllable name like Oliver. I'd probably keep it to one or two syllables. I voted Patrick, but really like Owen as well

Oliver Andrew would be pretty close to Ollivander.
This. Or I was thinking Oliver Alexander. It might be too much depending on your LN. Otherwise, I like MNs to be personal or family names. What about Charles, Michael, Daniel, Lucas?
I picked Benjamin because it keeps the syllables equal with your girl's name. Benjamin is also our boy pick, and Oliver and Caroline both made the short list. I love 3 syllable names I guess! DD has 3 syllables each in her first and middle names. We rarely call her by her full name anyway so it isn't a big deal that it's long.

Wow really? The exact same name? I figured the Marjorie would be kind of different. Marjorie is both mine, and Dh's grandma's names and my SF moms name.
just remember, you can't steal a name because no one owns them Oliver is a great name. I personally like Benjamin....but that is Asher's middle name! I also like Oliver Theodore a lot.
Thank you ladies!! We've decided on Oliver Benjamin! So excited to already have names picked out. @ABColeslaw I guess its a good thing no one owns names since I'm now using 2 of yours (or close to it anyway)... :-S
