So glad i stumbled upon this thread!
My Fiance and I have completely differing opinions on names. We're having a boy and i don't want something too common and he wants something strong and unusual. Owen is a family name so we'd like to include it as the middle name.
I'd love your feedback.
Cooper Owen or Owen Cooper (his favourite name)
Oscar Owen
Benjamin Owen John- this is our safety name
Tobie Owen
I like the name Owen - its strong and masculine. You can imagine it being heard shouted by his mates. I remember my Dad saying that about my brother's name (Karl). He wanted something that sounded right as a nipper and as an adult.
Cooper could be shortened to Coop.... I don't know how you feel about that. Whilst Cooper Owen flows better (IMO), out of that list I prefer Owen Cooper.
I like Owen Cooper (or vice versa) or Benjamin Owen John best.
Really like oscar and tobie, but not so much with owen....but, that not super impt as how often do you say entire name and every name takes on its own ring anyway.
I had a name decided for number 1. We both liked it, and determined we would use it. Yet, when she was born, the name did not 'fit' her. But in our stubbornness, we stuck with it. For a good part of her first year I felt very uncomfortable with her name - it had to grow on me. Now I think its a great name. I wonder time to time what we might have changed it to. She would most definitely have been nameless for a good week. The second one looked like the name we had picked for her. No issues there.
So dont be surprised if baby Owen is born, and you guys take one look at him, and say, oh def not.... he looks like an Elliot, or a James.... Let's sleep on it!
