Opinions on Sib Set

jrb987 · April 2014

I have a little boy named Holden Michael and am due with a second boy. My husband and I had originally decided on Reid Perry. He has now suggested Bennett Perry. I like the name Ethan, but my husband feels that it is too trendy. Perry is a family name and must be used. Our last name begins with a B and and rhymes with merge. TIA!

First, Holden is my most favorite boy name ever. LOVE.

Would you consider Perry as a FN? I think Perry Reid sounds awesome.

As far as trendiness goes, I consider Bennett (following the surnames as first names trend) more trendy than Ethan, which I think is just very, very popular.

Reid Perry is awesome!

Thank you all! I thought that we had it decided once and for all, then my husband had to go and throw another name in the mix. Ha ha ha. Just added stress on the 8 month pregnant lady

R____ Perry is a naming tradition in his family going back 5 generations, so keeping Perry as the middle name stands. It took us a long time to agree upon a name beginning with R that we both liked. He isn't dead set on on the first name being an R name but would like to at least keep the middle name.
