Farrar Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Because my husband likes Tower and his friend wants us to use Plank:tongue_smilie: :lol: No one suggested closet? Seriously, something traditional. David or Jonathan or James or whatever. Could be many things. I would just suggest something more traditional to balance it. Though, honestly, I like it. Ceder. Cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LibraryLover Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 All of my children have family names as middle names. Are there any nice relatives, or dead ones you've heard good things about? What about surnames? Do any of the g-father names work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinder Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Lane - If this was simply word association. I used to live next to Cedar Lane, but that's not what you were asking. First word that came to my mind was Crest. We have a Cedarcrest Rd around here. You could keep with the tree theme: Cedar Ash. ::groan:: Cinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Wife Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I hate to say this, but "Cedar" sounds feminine to me. And according to this website, it's more commonly used for girls than for boys. Therefore, I would go with a very masculine middle name so that folks won't get confused.

rootsnwings Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 (edited) I was gonna say Evan too!! My ds(3) is Caleb Evan Woods, so we had to make sure we picked something that didn't sound silly with woods--evan goes great! My dh wanted to use it as his first name & now, sometimes, I wish I would've listened! :blush: Edited November 21, 2010 by rootsnwings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonshineLearner Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I know a Cedar. He's a great kid... sounds good and like a boys name to me!! He is a good representation of why you'd want a boy named Cedar :) Cedar Henry :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rootsnwings Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 What about John? Evan is a form of John so he could have a name related to your hubby's, but not exact. I like Silas, too, but don't know if that's too many soft c/s sounds in one name...? Fwiw, my eldest's mn is Layne (family name). And dd is Brooke (also family name)...you could use Brooks? (not that you have to name your child after my family, lol...I'm just sayin'!!! These are names I like, obviously!!!) :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sahamamama Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 (edited) My husband walked by and said, "Plank. Closet. Chest." :glare: The first thing that popped into my mind was "Cedar James." It sounds nice. :001_smile: I also like "Cedar Owen" or "Cedar Owain" (the Gaelic spelling). http://babynamesworld.parentsconnect.com/meaning_of_Owain.html "Owain" keeps the tree theme -- it means "born from the yew tree."
