How to name my son after my mom?

Question

My mom's name is Cynthia "Cindy" Louise.. I love the name Oliver for my sons first name but i'm not sure how to some how put her name as my sons middle name. Not too jazzed about Lou or Louis. if i were having a girl, her name was going to be Sydnie, a spinoff of Cindy.

any unique ideas?

Answer 1

Oliver Lucas

Answer 2

Sidney could also be a boys name. I like the name Oliver Sidney. It has a nice ring to it. :-) Good luck!

Answer 3

Thats a neat idea! I love using family names also, and what better name to use than your moms?! How about:

Oliver Cyndrec

Oliver Cindell

Oliver Thio (Its like the end of CytnTHIa but with an o instead of an a, pronounced like Theo)

Oliver Cytnthio

I love the name Oliver. Its so cute. Sydnie is pretty also. Great names. Hope you find a nice middle name you like! Good luck and congrats! :o)

Answer 18

Here are some possibilities:

1. Use your mom's maiden name as a middle name for your son. My mom used her grandma's maiden name (Willoughby) for my brother's middle name. It worked great as a middle name.

2. Cyril; Cyle; Cynan; Cyrano; Cyrus--has the first two (or in the case of Cynan, three) letters in common

3. Artemis --Cynthia is Greek and is one of the names for the goddess Artemis. Artemis is used for a boy and a girl name.

4. I know you said you don't like Louis, but maybe an alternate spelling such as Lewis, or an ethnic variant, such as Luigi, might appeal to you more.

I admire that you want to honor your mom with your son's name. Good luck in finding a solution!!

Answer 19

I used my mom's maiden name initials for my son's first and middle name. Her initials were JZ (she has no middle name) and I named him Jamison Zander.  

Answer 20

oliver lewis is the cutest name i've ever heard!
