Do you like the names that we have picked out for our second child?

Question

My wife is 5 months preganant with my second child.

We want to name him: Falcon Alexander ..........
We want to name her: Alexia Sarah Jean ........

If you don't like these state why and give other examples that are nice.

Thanks!

Answer 1

I'm not totally crazy about Falcon, just because I have an unusual name and have been the object of many overused jokes. I do like the fact that it's unique though. I love the idea of separating Alexander and using 2 middle names...e.g. Alec Xander...and just about any first name goes well with it.
For the girl's name, Sarah Jean sounds very, um...classic?...ok, so I mean old-fashioned, but they both are timeless names, I guess. I like Alexia, but I wonder why you would put such a modern unique name with two that sound kind of plain. (Please don't get mad if those are family names.) In my opinion, Alexia Scarlet sounds better if you want to mix old and new together. Best of luck to you and Congratulations!

Answer 2

Falcon, it's nice and all .... but I think of Falcon Crest and soap opera names. I would have to say that Alexander Falcon would be alot better.

Alexia Sarah Jean - Okay who's mother or grandmother is this after? Kinda plain jane. I can hear the little boys teasing her in the third grade ..Alexia has dyslexia or Alexia has anorexia.

Seriously put all names to the 3rd grade test.

Answer 3

I don't care for them, but it is strictly personal taste. Falcon is a little out there for me, I think there are lots of other unusual names that are better. Maybe you could find a cool name that means Falcon, and go in that direction. I just don't like kids named after animals or inanimate objects.
Alexia is very overused, but I love Sarah! I am not a fan of the three name thing either, and Sarah Jean sounds a little redneck to me. Sorry, I am not trying to offend!
I personally love the names Miles, Zane, and lots of the Irish names for boys. (not like Aidan or Colin-- those are overused. there are some cool unusual ones)
For a girl, I love Stella, Audrey, Emerson, and Sage.
Check out the baby name book: "Beyond Jason and Jennifer: What to name your baby now"--it has some great ideas! I know they have it on amazon.com.
Good Luck!

Answer 4

I love Falcon Alexander cause it is different......

I like Alexia.....

I do not like sarah cause it is so common and Jean sounds like for an old woman.

Alexis Payton
Alexis Cheyenne
Alexis Chantel
Alexis Cadence
Alexis Reagen
Alexis Kennedy Rae
Alexis Kendall

Good luck and congrats

Answer 5

I like Falcon, but I am not a fan of names with Xs in them. How about Falcon Anderson, Falcon Addison or Falcon Allen

As for Alexia, again Xs just bug me for some reason... too trendy I guess. I like Alicia Sarah, Alison Jean or Alisa Jean

I also love Abby as a girls name, not Abigail, just Abby.

I get the feeling that Alex is important to you though, to honor some family member maybe.... so take all of our opinions as just that.... opinions.

Good luck finding the perfect name!

Answer 6

Alexia Sarah Jean is simply sweet.....Falcon is a unique name....Falcon Alexander is nice too.....congratulations on the 2nd child...

Answer 7

I really like Falcon but I've heard way too many Alexias. Best wishes & congrats on the new baby!!


Much Love!!

Answer 8

falcon? i dont like. naming a kid after a bird is not good. how about alexander falcon.

as for alexia sarah i love it. wouldnt change a bit of it. congrats and good luck

Answer 9

Please do not name your child after a bird just think about how the children will treat him in school. The girls name is beautiful but Falcon has to go! How about Mathew Alexander or Pierce Alexander?
