Adlai Benyamin and Rose Marceline?

Question

Someone asked me for middle names for the boy and girl twins...

does this sound okay to you?

Adlai is in memory of my father in law

Benyamin is in memory of my husbands son who died

Rose is in memory of my husbands grandmother.

Marceline is my grandmother's middle name.

What do you think?

Answer 1

isn`t marceline what angelina jolie`s  daughter`s middle name

Answer 2

I prefer Adlai Benjamin. Love love love Rose as a first name. Not fond of Marceline, too similar to Angelina Jolie's mother's name, Marcheline, and whom Vivienne Marcheline Jolie Pitt is named after.

Answer 3

Wait, so THE Adlai Stevenson was your father in law? Since you said on the other question that it's after him. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adlai_Steve...

Anyways, I like the names and all the family connections. Adlai is such a rare name these days. I don't think Marceline is too close to AJ's mother, also because it was actually your grandma's name, while AJ's mom was born Marcia Lynn.

Answer 4

I like it for the most part... Something seems funky though.

Answer 5

I love Rose Marceline.  It's very pretty.  My first thought was of Angelina Jolie as well, but if you are naming it after your grandmother's middle name, then it's fine.  Besides, in a few years, very few people are going to remember what Angelina Jolie's daughter's middle name is anyway.

I don't think I like the boy's name as much.  Sorry.

Answer 6

on the other question, i responded that i didn't love it, but now, with the middle names, it sounds very nice
