What's a good middle name for Ben?

[Naisy68]

I love the name Owen, Benjamin Owen (Owen is my son's first name.) I also like the name Elliot as I really like the classic older names. Just a couple different ideas. Congratulations and good luck!

Incidently, my son's name is Owen Alexander
Owen = well descended
Alexander = leader of men
So my son is a well descended leader of men - kinda cool I thought. Of course he's 21 now so we shall see if the name rings true.

LOVE Benjamin Owen, if I had used that he would have the initials BOY, not sure he would like it but I find it very cool!!

Well folks, he's here, and we did it. He's Ben Kenobi! He's a big boy, bigger than we expected, 9lbs 12 oz, and 20.5" long! He's adorable, he looks *just* like his daddy.

Thank you all so much for your suggestions, stories, and well wishes.

Congrats to you and your family and may the force be with you all

My dses are huge Star Wars fans and when I told them that you named your baby Ben Kenobi they said "that is so cool"

 

[DisneyMomma81]

Yay ~ what a cool name, my DS will approve

 

[momof1princess]

congratulations, OP! my DH is a HUUUUUUGE star wars fan, and when i told him what you named your baby, he said "that's so cool!"

I can't wait to tell DD she's not the only person with a Star Wars "theme" name. She will love that!

There was someone back in 2006 who wanted to name their baby "Vader" if it was a boy. Thank goodness for that child "he" was a SHE!

Congratulations! Enjoy your new little guy!

There was someone back in 2006 who wanted to name their baby "Vader" if it was a boy. Thank goodness for that child "he" was a SHE!

when i was pregnant with DD back in 1997, we had no idea if she was male or female until she was born, and we couldn't agree on a boy name to save our lives. DH teased me up until she was born that if the baby was a boy, he would tell the nurse in the delivery room we were naming him "luke skywalker" or "darth vader". thank goodness, DD was a she...lol.

i have a friend with 2 young sons, and she is a star wars fanatic of the highest order. her sons are owen (luke's uncle) braxton and adley bespin (gas planet where lando calrissian's cloud city was located).

I SOOOO wanted a Benjamin for my fourth, but we have a Kristen. I was going to name her Benjamin Everett. My husband didn't love it, but I was willing to kick him to the curb so I could have that name.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Hope you and your baby are doing well!

 

[Mrs. Charming]

Here he is, little Benjamin Kenobi! All 9lbs, 12oz of him
