How can I incorporate my brothers name into my child's?

I have a younger brother named Luke, and I would like to incorporate that into my son's without giving him the first name of Luke. I have an older brother named Joshua and I had used his name as the middle name for my 2 year old, Ryan Joshua. And I was wanting to continue the naming but can't seem to find anything that would work with the name of Luke. I don't want to use Lucas as my brother has made it clear over the years that his name is NOT Lucas. Any suggestions?

    I think it would be a really good idea to carry on the middle name tradition and give your next son the middle name Luke. It would be a really nice middle name for lots of first names, too!

    How about:

    Thomas Luke

    Harrison Luke

    Ethan Luke

    Zachary Luke

    Oliver Luke

    Jayden Luke

    Michael Luke

    Jacob Luke

    William Luke

    Caleb Luke

    Samuel Luke

    Elijah Luke

    Nicholas Luke

    Nathan Luke

    Christopher Luker

    Nathaniel Luke

    Christian Luke

    Tristan Luke

    Jameson Luke

    Connor Luke

    Sebastian Luke

    Matthew Luke

    Mitchell Luke

    Andrew Luke

    Xavier Luke

    Aaron Luke

    Aiden Luke

    Jackson Luke

    Noah Luke

    Hope this helps!! :)

    You've already gotten plenty of first names with the middle name Luke suggestions and since Ryan is the only clue as to what names you like, I won't give you suggestions for first names.

    Are you looking for something other than using Luke as a middle name? I don't think there is anything wrong with that as long as the first name you choose flows nicely with it. Here's a nice article on middle names and how to pair syllables for a nice flow- http://www.namenerds.com/uucn/advice/middle.html

    You could also always go with Luca, the Italian/Romanian form of Luke.

    LUCA

    Gender: Masculine

    Usage: Italian, Romanian

    Italian and Romanian form of LUKE. This name was borne by Luca della Robbia, a Renaissance sculptor from Florence.

    Another idea is to incorporate your brother's middle name rather than his first or even let him choose the middle name- a risky but interesting way to let someone feel involved and honored.

    If you edit your question with a list of a few names (even girl names will give me an idea) that you like, I will be happy to suggest similar style names that will work with the middle name Luke.

    Good luck!

    Luke is a great name if you just wanted to name your son Luke, as his first name. If you don't want to do that though, you could either have the middle name be Luke and use a name you really like that goes with the name. I know as a mother who is chosing a name for their child, the middle name seems really important, but I find that I hardly ever bring up my middle name so don't worry if it doesn't fit perfectly with the name you like. Also, you could change the first name to something similar to luke, but like you mentioned above, he clearly stated that he was "luke" and nothing else. But some examples are lucas, luca, duke, lucious, etc. The last suggestion is that you rearranged the letters i luke to make a new name and use that as a middle name. The bad thing is that great names don't really comeo ut of rearranging "luke" but the best thing I got was "Klue". I know that's not really a name and it's weird but i think it would be unique and might go with a cute first name. example: Justin Klue, Daniel Klue. I know that's a little strange but i'm sorry, that's all I could think of. Good luck and congrats with the new baby!

    I like the idea of using 2 middle names cause Luke is a hard name to use as a middle name but something like Brandon Michael Luke or Chistopher Joseph Luke sounds kinda nice.
