Hi! My name is Kristine and my husbands name is Lawrence (everyone calls him Low). A friend just recently told me about you! I was very excited to see if I could get your input. I am currently 39 weeks pregnant (due date is June 13th) with my second child which is a boy. Our first child is a girl. Her name is Elianna Presley Norris and she is 19 months old. Our finalist names for our boy are Malaki, Mak (pronounced Mac) and Kingston. We cant decide if we like Malaki with the nickname Mak or just to go with the name Mak. As far as a middle name we were thinking of doing the other name we didnt choose or we really like Elias or Eliah. If our baby boy was another girl we really liked the names Larue, Penelope and Everlee. We do plan on having more children and most likely all close together.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
<\/p>\n
When I say each combination aloud, I find Kingston Norris a little difficult to say: the -on of Kingston and the No- of Norris either blends or bounces. And Mak Norris seems a little bit like MacNorris and a little bit like Chuck Norris; I also wonder if a short nickname name like Mak would make you feel pressured to do the same for future boys. None of those seem like big\/deal-breaker issues.<\/p>\n
Still, my first choice would be Malaki (Mak) Norris: I like Malaki best with the surname, with the sibling name, and with the idea of future siblings to name.<\/p>\n
I like Elias best of the two nickname options, but both options have a lot of sounds in common with Malaki. My favorite would be Malaki Kingston Norris: in the middle name position, the -on\/No- comes up much less often.<\/p>\n
Let’s have a poll to see what everyone else thinks!<\/p>\n
