Do just that... meet him in the middle. Make a game where you and yours list as many other names to mingle with his name. Thus creating a hybred name. This will allow him to feel a great connection to his son, (it is this "connection" that he seeks-and the ownership a namesake carries). Explain to him that just to "re-name" or hand down a name, though a great name it is...just seems somehow not enough for the son of "x" (you get where this is going??? lug him up!! then let the fun start.
his name is frank...
You have a brother named Lynn
hybred= franklynn
get? good! enjoy...

ask him if it would be ok if the child say has his first and last name but has a different middle name. Tell him that you understand him wanting to name his son after him but you were thinking about a different middle name. I did that. My son is 12 now. His first name and last name is after his daddy and he has my dad's first name as his middle. good luck with it

you will agree eventually.......the carrying on his name.....last name is carring on his name......you could use his first or middle name for the child middle name.......then he gets 2 and you pick the first name

have more than one baby or else compromise, let him pick either the first or middle name and you pick the other name.
