Middle name opinion

in Baby Names
We have decided 100% to name our little man Henry Allen. I am debating now on whether to incorporate a second middle name. This is for sure our last and our only boy. I want to honor as many significant male family members as posssible.
What are your thoughts on two middle names?
Opinions on order/flow? Allen has to stay but can either come first or second for a middle name. Possible pairings would be Harold, John, or William.
All opinions welcome and very much appreciated!

Thanks!!!

    If the names are really meaningful, then go for it!

    Henry William Allen
    Henry John Allen

    Those are my favorite of flow. Personally I think Harold is too much.

    Congrats on your little boy!!

    I don't like double middle names. Is there anyone else in your family who might honor the other relatives? Like if you want to honor your grandfather, maybe a sibling or cousin will use it? I know you can't bet on who would use what, but unless you're the only descendent having kids you shouldn't feel like you have to fit in everyone.

    This exactly. Also, Henry and Harold seem too similar to me to be used together.
    It's a boy! Born 42 weeks, 2 days.
