I am due with my second son on Sunday! We are still stuck on names! Any help is appreciated.
Some family names:
Husband- Robert Andrew "Rob"
Son- Timothy Marcel "Tim"
Father- Marcel Maxime "Max"
Father-in-law- Richard William "Rich"
*Note brother-in-law is Richard William Jr. (and has sons, Richard "Trey" and William "Liam")
Some we have come up with are Max Andre, Henry Andre, Henry Robert, and Mason Maxime, but we are open to suggestions.
I am from France but we live in TX, USA, and my husband is American.

i would personally stir clear of harry, richard (dick), henry and others along those lines, kids are cruel and would be brutal about making fun of him.
I think that Max Andre or Andrew is a great name if you're going for the traditional name. but you're French, you should give your son some French legacy in his name (just be sure its something that people in the US can pronounce without a problem and kids wont make fun of it).
I'm huge on unique names and kind of traditional ethnic names.

Ooh, I love a lot of those names up there! Tim is great; now all you need to do is find a name that goes well with it (I'm a firm believer in siblings' names flowing together - not explicitly matching, like having the same initials or anything, but so you don't end up with a Tim and then an Olive or whatever).
I wouldn't use the dad's name though - I've always thought that would be a little unfair to the other kids.
Some combinations I like: Max Henry, Caleb Mason, Caleb Max, Caleb Henry, or Caleb Richard.
My favorite though is Caleb Richard - one for each grandfather, I guess. Caleb is a great name, and goes really well with Timothy - think about how you'll be saying their names together all the time ! Timothy and Caleb are awesome. Caleb can also use the nickname Cale, pronounced like the name Kale, which I absolutely love.
Anyway, good luck and CONGRATS on the second baby!

I think it would sound nice if you switched Max Andre around used Maxime in whole. Andre Maxime
Other names that are nice that use your family names, which I'm asumming you want to incorporate. I think you should use your husbands fathers name for you son since you used your fathers for your first son.
Quincy Andrew
Sebastien William
Mason Richard

How about the combining of the two fathers' names: William Marcel? It would be perfectly okay for both boys to have the same middle name. Then your boys would be Tim and Will. Pretty cute I think.

My son is Peter John, if that's any help.

I like Mason Andre I think that fits with both your nationalities. Caleb Andre or Max Andre would also be lovely.
Best of luck deciding!
