| I love Jameson as a first name, but we are having trouble coming up with a middle name. Any suggestions? |

Depends on your last name.
A screen writer gave me this naming advice - vary the syllables and the name flows better. So with a three syllable first name use a single syllable middle name IF you have a two syllable last name. If you have a one syllable last name pick a two syllable middle name. If you have a three syllable last name, give your child a different first name than Jameson. |

My mom called DD Jameson in utero! She started with the nickname before we knew she was a girl. My mom had referred to her sister as Bobby throughout her mother's pregnancy and the name stuck!! My aunt changed her name to Bobbie as an adult because that's what everyone had called her growing up. So funny! I love the name Jameson, probably because it reminds me of the love my mother had for her grandkids before she died. I agree with the previous posters who suggested sticking with something classic. Philip is a particularly good choice, I think. But, both Michael and Edward sound lovely as well. What about Samuel? How many syllables is your last name? |

NEVER use Lee or Earl as a middle name! Your son will become a murderer if you do. |

Oh, wait! I thought Jameson would be the middle name. It sounds better as a middle name. Too burdensome up front. It would be shortened by design to James or Jaime. If you go with Michael Jameson X, there's less likelihood that it would devolve into a nickname. |

OP here. My father's name is James and I (his daughter) have a feminized version of the name. I dont drink whiskey. If anyone tries to shorten it to a nickname, I plan to correct them but people don't seem to do that much here. I have an acquaintance whose son is named "Alexander" and no one shortens it to "Alex" because we know she doesn't want that. Our last name has two syllables. |

Also Reed, York, Cole, Drew, Flynn, Lane. Someone in either of your families has got to have a single syllable surname you could use as well. I am personally digging: Jameson Quinn or Jameson Ford |

Eh, there are exceptions to every rule. There are no murderers or wackos named Jameson. So you can feel free to use Lee with that particular name. I would still be wary of Earl. |

| It really depends on the last name. Can you give a fill-in that mimics the syllables and accents? |
