Help[Opinions] Re: Meriwether
in reply to a message by CyanPluto
Would Lewis be out of the question? And why not Meriwether as is? If it's to "out there" as a first name, then as a middle name it's fine -- more than fine. Or, did he have a middle name that could work?
Clement means "mild" as in "mild / merciful." That's a tern that is also used for (good) weather. A combination like Clement Eugene would get close to the meaning of Meriwether. Sort of.
The only other thing that came to mind was Meredith, which is traditionally male. But at that point you might as well stick with Meriwether.
Sorry I'm not much help. Basically, the best / safest way to honor the explorer in the first name slot is to use Lewis. :0)
