[Opinions] Lucas (and others)
Replies
I love the name Lucas. It's been my favorite name for 15 years :)
I don't care for either name (Lucas is harsh sounding to me, and I just don't like the sound of Jerome). But, I do think Jerome Lucas would flow better.
From the others, I like:
Eleanor Jasmine (I prefer Nora - that spelling only - as a formal name)
Samuel Jude
-Lissa Hannah-
!'s = Kipling, Barry, Mortimer, Miles, Marmaduke, Fletcher, Hiram, Wade, Maris, Blanche, Gladys, Arlette, Glenda, Juniper, Lulu, Berthe
?'s = Pasquale, Archibald, Humphrey, Nigel, Bernard, Minna, Doris, Shirley, Cordelia, Gertrude

I really love Jerome! St. Jerome was a wonderful person; I'm surprised (but not saddened, since I like it) that his name is so uncommon just now. Lucas Jerome sounds very nice. I like the nickname Luke a lot, since I've a cousin Lucas who goes by Luke. (His middle name starts with a J, too, incidentally.)
April always sounded nice with longer middle names to me. I think April Josephine (or April Josepha, if you're daring--I'd like that better), April Beatrice, April Winifred, or April Dorothy would all be nice. It's such a wispy little name that I think it benefits from something nice and grounded in the center. Do any of those suit you? I'll try and come up with others if they don't.
Tobias, of course, will need a J name, I think. Tobias Justin, perhaps? Tobias Julian? Tobias Jonah? Tobias Joel?
I couldn't help you with more names for girls. I'm afraid I find it easiest just to have new favourites discovered on accident, rather than having them suggested.

Yes, Lucas Jerome is very nice. Jerome is the more intriguing choice for me. I hardly ever see it anymore. It's very refreshing.

April Marianne or April Cathleen
