This post is all about middle names for Oliver
Before we go any further into all things middle names for Oliver…
I always like to share my top tips for choosing a middle name, that also apply for when you’re choosing a first name if you’re still on that stage of the naming process.
1. Read it out loud
Flow is key when it comes to picking a first and middle name together! Read those names together out loud many times, make sure they flow well together, and with your last name too.
2. Keep it to yourself
I’m team keep the name a secret until birth! Otherwise you’re opening yourself up to a whole lot of opinions you may not want, or hearing stories about how your mom knew an Oliver in high school who was a big jerk and boom, the name is ruined.
Less likely, but you’re also running the risk of someone stealing the name away, if you’re sharing with someone else who is expecting.
If you are going to share, just know that could happen, and you might end up back at square one if it gets ruined for ya. In other words, share at your own risk.
3. Make sure the initials aren’t anything inappropriate
This isn’t the biggest deal in the world, but you probably don’t want your little one running around with the initials A.S.S. Just sayin’.
4. Keep siblings or future siblings in mind
Another not that big of a deal, but if you’re wanting to go with any kind of theme, whether it’s plants or a letter, just something to keep in mind as you’re picking out names and middle names.
Alright, let’s dive into those middle names for Oliver! All 175+ of them!
