I am 33 weeks and we're naming the baby Kenneth after my father-in-law. It wasn't my first choice, but it means a lot to my husband and it's starting to grow on me.
What does everyone think of the name Kenneth? What image does it bring to mind?
I was thinking of Owen as a middle name. Any suggestions for a middle name, preferebly beginning with O or A?

Kenneth runs in my fiance's family. My fiance's middle name is Kenneth. His father, grandfather, and brother-in-law all have Kenneth as a first name. We're planning on using Kenneth as a middle name. I don't like the sound of the name at all, but I can appreciate the significance to my fiance.
I like Kenneth Owen, but be careful. If your last name can be a noun or a verb, the name begins to sound like a sentence. We thought about using Owen, but Owen Huff sounded like a really bizarre sentence (like: Oh, enough!), so Owen is out of the picture for us :(
Here's some ideas for middle names:
Kenneth Oliver
Kenneth Adam
Kenneth Aaron
Kenneth Oscar
Kenneth Abraham
Good luck!

I think of a down-to-earth, honest, little gentleman.
Who grows up to be a hardworking, successful individual.
Kenneth, Kenny for short is a wonderful name and would suit a wonderful child.
For a middle name perhaps, Kenneth Alexander or if that's long Kenneth Aaron is a nice name as well.
Best of luck! =)

i like it! it is my husband's call, yet i might like it whether it wasn't...it in basic terms makes me photograph a guy who's candy, handsome, considerate, and extremely smart. I like it as a popular call over Noah (even nevertheless Noah's no longer undesirable), so of your 2 possibilities, i might vote for Kenneth Mitchell. some extra recommendations: Kenneth Michael (resembling Mitchell...I in basic terms like it extra in my opinion) Kenneth William Kenneth Alexander Kenneth Gabriel Kenneth Lucas Kenneth Adam Kenneth Francis Kenneth Elijah Kenneth Elliot Kenneth Vincent Josiah Kenneth David Kenneth Andrew Kenneth Liam Kenneth Oliver Kenneth

LOVE that name!!!! Kenneth. You should give him the middle name Cole. jk. But Kenneth Cole would be a nice name. What about:
Kenneth Alexander
Kenneth Oliver
Kenneth Adam

Kenneth is a very solid, classic name, and Ken or Kenny are good nicknames. Owen flows nicely with Kenneth, and I think a shorter name works best, so 4 letters is perfect. I like Evan (sorry, no O or A).
O and A names could be:
Oliver, Alex (doesn't have to be the full name Alexander), Alton, or Oren.

It's a strong, classic name. Not my taste, but not bad either. I really like Kenneth Owen.

I actually like Kenneth, though the possible shortening "Ken" isn't my style (I do like Keith, which can also be used, however ... especially if you'd like a way to differentiate from your father-in-law). ;)
Some of my favorite O and A names are ...
Oran
Oliver
Oscar
Alasdair/Alister
Angus
Aulay
Ambrose
Avery
Not an O or A, but if you like Owen, you might also like the similar -- but less common -- Ewan. Hope that helps! ;)
