I am having a baby boy in 3 1/2 weeks I'm still not really sure what his first name will be his middle name will be Patrick and his last Gorham I am thinking either Gage, Gunnar or Eli. What do you think?

Lady, all those names are an affliction. Gorham is bad enough, but since you can't help that, don't stick the child with Patrick let alone Gage (whatever that means), Gunnar (same thing) or Eli unless of course you are Jewish then Eli make sense. And I think Gorham is Jewish, right? Anyway, imagine the kid in school. Eli Gorham. For a Jew, yes, anyone else...no. Oh and I'm NOT being racist, I'm black. I'm just being realistic and trying to spare the child ridicule in his formative years.

Hmmm
Gage Patrick Gorham
Gunnar Patrick Gorham
Eli Patrick Gorham
Well - Gunnar sounds best this way but Eli is the only one that sounds good without the middle name between it and Gorham.
On second thought - yeah, Eli Patrick Gorham - the more I say it in my head, the better it sounds.

As a first name Gunner works but the Patrick Gunner Gorham doesn't have the same ring Patrick Eli Gorham does. Gage doesn't fit at all in my opinion. Gunner Gorham sounds like a quarterback Eli Gorham sounds more like a writer's name.

Gage - the little boy from Pet Semetary
Gunnar - a blonde Nelson brother
definitely Eli - or Elias with Eli for short.
Eli Gorham has a nice ring to it. Go to your back door an holler anything you are thinking of naming him and see if it sounds right.

One thing to think of is the sound of the names. Typically, you want to pair names with different syllables. Patrick has two and Gorham has two, so a first name with one or three would be best. Gage sounds very nice. Congratulations.

Eli Patrick Gorham. You don't want 2 g's together. I don't really like the name Eli, but I've met a few that are really great, interesting people, so I think it has some great karma.

I like Eli Patrick. I don't like Gunnar because I new a Gunnar in school and he was a doper! Gage is a nice strong name as well.
Congratulations on the pending little one!

I think Gage and Gunnar with your last name make the name sound really hard and harsh, especially Gage. Eli is nice. I think it sounds better as Elijah Patrick, and you can call him Eli. It is a good name, and sounds good with you last name, too.

I think that Eli Patrick Gorham is a good choice. Sounds very good. Congradulations and good luck with the little one.

I like Patrick Gage Gorham the best. You could name him that, and call him by his middle name, if you don't want to call him Patrick.
