Macaulay?

What do you think of this name? I've always liked last names as first names, and it's been on my side list for quite some time.

Opinions? Ideas for middle names? I was thinking Macaulay Jaden (I've always loved that name and I'm thinking it's a good way to indulge in one of my guilty pleasure names lol).
Do you think Mac is a cute nickname for Macaulay?

Thanks in advance! :)

Re: Macaulay?

I Love Macauley, my hubby doesn't though :/ Every time I brought it up he slapped his hands to his face and screamed a la Kevin Macallister in Home Alone.... yes, he's very adult-like :)
I like Mac as nn, too, but I do have to say that I'm VERY much not a fan of the Jayden/Jaylin/Jade trend and I don't think it flows very well with Macauley.

Re: Macaulay?

I think Macaulay is a great name and I love the nn of Mac

Can I steer you away from Jaden and indeed any of the 'aden' names?

Most name nerds almost have nervous breakdowns when they see Jaden or Nevaeh being used, these names are tryndy, here today gone tomorrow names.

Macaulay Donovan
Macaulay Grant
Macaulay Oscar
Macaulay Robert
Macaulay Tiernan
Macaulay Paul
Macaulay Jonathan

I know I really shouldn't love Jaden, I hate all trendy and yoo-neek names, but this name has just always been one of my guilty pleasure names.
But thanks for steering me away from it. I just need to be beaten over the head with good names to distract me away from Jaden. Haha.

I love Macaulay Robert :) Thanks for the suggestion! I'd love to hear so much more.

Re: Macaulay?

I like Macaulay and especially like the nn Mac. I've been trying to think of names that lead to Mac (I don't know why, just something to think about I guess as I am not pregnant).
