Final boy poll?

I think we dropped Simon and are now down to just 2 names. DS1 is Wesley Eli and last name is pronounced Sh-roe-der. Middle name will most likely be Reid, but some other potential contenders are: Dexter, Zane, Oliver, Felix, Grayson. I like that Miles is less popular (111 vs. 38 on the SSA list), but think that Owen sounds better as a full name due to the S ---> SH transition in MileS SH-roe-der. Although I'm just realizing that DS1 will likely go by Wes and has the same S ---> SH issue.

  • Miles (awesome name), or Rowan if you want another suggestion. I don't like Owen AT ALL.

  • I like the suggestion of Rowan.
  • I voted for Miles but actually like Owen too. If you choose Miles, I'd go with a longer middle name as I'm not fond of the first and middle name both being one syllable.

  • Miles Schroeder sounds fine to me. Actually, I find the O sound in both Owen and Schroeder more sing-songy. Besides, I prefer Miles as a name anyway. And I prefer it with Reid. In short, Miles Reid all the way. Love it!
  • I'm sad you got rid of Simon :( I voted for Miles (which I love), but I also really like Grayson and Dexter from your list.
