Op here, so DH shares his name with a cousin of mine and another cousin's husband(who goes by the common nickname). We've agreed that Trey or Trace is a decent name for those reasons.

Trace? That sounds like a Sarah Palin name.

I think the idea is that these are nicknames. The child's name would be the same as his dad and grandfather's. These are nicknames that mean "the third". Trey, in particular, used to be popular among Southern families, though I don't hear it as much lately.


Yes, I realize that Trey and Trace are nicknames for the third, I’m just saying that it seems way too cutesy to me. It also seems outdated and something a boy would find embarrassing as he gets older.

I have a cousin whose parents did this to him and he hates it, but feels stuck with the name now because he doesn’t want to use the same first name as his dad or grandfather. He wishes someone had told his parents not to do this.

Mara and Trace are cool. Neither Mia nor Mali are good with Mara, though.

Maybe ...

It sounds like you just want girl names, then? Since he will be Trey/Trace if a boy? My girl suggestions:

Alexa & Mara
Lydia & Mara
Claire & Mara
Adelaide & Mara
Rose & Mara

I think both Mali and Mia are too close to big sister Mara. I'd avoid names that start with M.

What about:
Ava
Ada
Anya
Elena
Eva
Jane
Tess
