    Guys, I'm going to get my name legally changed soon and need to come up with a middle name!

    My first name is Eric and my last name's Klassen (pronounced Klaw-sin). Any suggestions? Probably one with 1 or 3 syllables would be best.

    Also, do you think my first and last name sound okay together? I'm obsessing over that "don't end your first name the same way the last name begins rule" but I think it sounds okay in this case.

    Liam, Patrick, Pete/Peter?

    I think your first and last name sound good together. Also having EE alliteration with your first and middle names would sound pretty cool, like Ethan or Edward. Just my opinion. I'd check popular names for boys from the year you were born, that can always be helpful.

    Eric does sound really cool with your surname. I think you can get away with it because it starts with KL rather than K and a vowel (Eric Kennedy, for example, wouldn't work as well).
    Eric Edward would make your initials EEK, like someone screaming :slight_smile:

    I think Eric Benjamin, Eric Douglas or Eric Jacob would be nice.
