HI, I am after a middle name for Alex.

(sorry Nut but i am going to have Alex as my second sons name.. )

I would like some thing that would sound nice when said if he has been bad. EG: i call Tommee by his full name. Thomas Andrew. so i would love a name that i can use that would sound as nice as that does when i say it.

We are going to use Alex's full name on his BC but also would love a cool way to spell it so that it is diff. Like Tom is. I have spelt it Tommee not tomy or tomey. i wanted to be diff.

Hey, my "Alex" is older than Nut's - mine's 21 years old.



I think that a middle name depends on the surname as well as the first. How will the names roll together off the tongue? Will th sound harsh, soft or balanced? I like to look for nice rhythms

sorry anon60, i only knew that Nut had a Alex.

Our last name is Cook. so far we have Alex - Cook

I much prefer Alex as a nickname to Alexander, especially since Tom has a full name of Thomas it would be nice for Alex to have a full name too. I would definitely only spell it as Alex though.


Middle name suggestions:
Alexander/Alex James
Alexander/Alex Jacob

I have a friend with an Alex Robert.

Mine's "Alexander Gordon". "Gordon" was his paternal Poppy's middle name and is his Dad's middle name. New family traditions have to start somewhere.

I have an Alex William

These all sound great with Cook

I like Alex William and Alex Matthew

My DS1 (Alex's big brother) is "Matthew". So yes, Alex and Matthew go together.

I like Alexander/Alex William.

The second one may be a bit long for you, but I think with such a short last name you could pull it off!
