***UPDATE*** I'm a daddy for the third time!!!!!!! No more name opinions needed.

Update:
Alexander Robbie was brought into this world at 2:30 pm mountain time. His official stats are: 6 lbs, 10 oz...19 inches. Both mother and baby are doing great. The girls just love their new baby brother. Right now I'm at home trying to get some rest, but am still pumped on adrenaline. It just keeps getting better!!!

Little background info: I currently have 2 wonderful daughters. I had little input on what their names would be (granted I did get to choose my first born's middle name) and my wife felt that I should be the one that names our soon to be newborn son, although, to make a long story short, his middle name will be Robbie, in honor of his deceased uncle (wife's brother)
The two names I have narrowed it down to are:
Alexander Robbie
and
Joseph Robbie
Both the wife and I like both of them, however Joseph is my middle name and it just seems weird to name him that, though the wife is partial to it.
I've always liked Alex, and with Alexander, you can't wussify it like you can with Joseph (Joey, et al. No offense to those named Joey out there)
So, fellow ATOT'ers, please cast a vote on what you think is a better name.

Joseph Robbie is nice. I like Robot Robbie, though. On a class roster, it'll read "Robbie, Robot."

Alexander Robbie is real wussy. The name Alexander is wussy.

 

[damiano]

Joesph-Alexander Robbie

 

[ohtwell]

Jason Allen

Bobbie is an odd middle name though, I would have thought it would have been Robert or something

How about Tim (Timothy)?

For some reason, there aren't that many Tims out there. Everyone is either named John, Joseph, Robert, Thomas, Williams or Steven/Stephen.

Alex isn't that bad since usually people will pick call him Al.

 

[Jfur]

Be sure to consider your last name, too Do you know any other Alexanders or Josephs? Any gut impression you have based on that? It's ok to share your middle name if it is appealing to both of you.

 

Name him Roger.

 

[Carbo]

Who is the kid's father? Name the boy after him.

 

[HomeBrewerDude]

name him Yamaha


seriously, i like JoRo for a nickname

 

[Lola]

is that gonna be his REAL middle name? Robbie? I always like Joesph Robert or Robert Joseph.

 

[MazerRackham]

My real name is Hunter. Name him Hunter! Girls LOVE it! Plus I think it sounds cool

 

[BD2003]

How about "tupac"?

 

[eakers]

i like the name alexander robbie


my personal suggestion is ethan

oh oh and corban

 

[ggavinmoss]

Definitely ROB.

Rob Robbie.

I've known a George Georggian and a Bill Biller too...

Just FYI,

Joseph Robbie is a pretty popular name in S.FL

Linky

Like Joseph better than Alex myself.

 

[Nitemare]

Sell the naming rights on ebay, I'm sure someone would bite...






but then again, little Lenny Squizmunster might hate you for it later one

Thanks for your replies, kind of funny that the poll is deadlocked. Anyways, a bump for more votes, and a few responses:

Yeah, stoopid head.

is that gonna be his REAL middle name? Robbie? I always like Joesph Robert or Robert Joseph.

It's Robbie, and I'll agree it's odd, I was also going with Robert, but the wife insists it be Robbie, as that was her bro's real first name.

Alex isn't that bad since usually people will pick call him Al.

That's pretty much what I was thinking.

Who is the kid's father? Name the boy after him.

Really funny Carbo!

seriously, i like JoRo for a nickname

Never thought of that, might have to put that in consideration.

Joseph Robbie is a pretty popular name in S.FL

Yeah, I made a joke about that to my wife, she didn't get it (not a football fan) Of course now that they renamed it...

Sell the naming rights on ebay, I'm sure someone would bite... but then again, little Lenny Squizmunster might hate you for it later one

Sounds like not too bad of an idea, doubt the wife would go for that though.

 

[Platypus]

Make sure you consider his initials too, he might end up like myself with the initals "ASS"

My Son's name is Alexander and it's NOT a wussy name at all, it actually means:From the Greek name Alexandros, which meant "defending men" from Greek alexein "to defend, help" and aner "man" (genitive andros). Alexander the Great, King of Macedon, is the most famous bearer of this name. In the 4th century BC he built a huge empire out of Greece, Egypt, Persia, and parts of India. This was also the name of emperors of Russia, kings of Scotland and Yugoslavia, and eight popes. Also, Sir Alexander MacKenzie was an explorer of the north and west of Canada in the 18th century.

I got a C in humanities and slept thru most of the course, but that appears correct.

Also, keep initials in mind when naming. Naming your child Joseph Robbie may have everone calling him J.R. when he's older.
