BellaOnline Forums Health and Fitness Baby Names Middle name for Elias

Hi I'm looking for a middle name for Elias, but I want the name to honour both my father and DH's father.. So can you come up with a combination of Martin and Richard, that flows well with Elias? Thanks!

Hi Aphrodite!

Just wanted to welcome you to the BellanOnline Forums and I am so glad to see you have started to post.

Here are a few ideas:

Mitchell - "M" from Martin, "ich"-sound from Richard
Michael - "M" from Martin, "ich" from Richard (different sound though)
Tristan - "Ri" from Richard, "tin"-sound from Martin
Ryan - "R" from Richard, n-ending from Martin
Charles, Gerard, Harvey - have the a-r sequence of both Martin and Richard

M A R T I N R I C H A R D

A R I are the 3 letters they have in common. Elias Ari?

OR

Elias Marich (pronounced "Mare rick")

I kinda like Elias Mitchell. DH likes it too, but we're not entirely convinced yet. Other combinations are still very welcome!
