Sparrow James Midnight...

Oh Good Grief.

I think this is an awful choice, and far too matchy with their daughter's names, yet manages not to match at all. Sparrow is not my style, and I don't like how it is so similar to Harlow. James is lovely (as was Kate) but seems so out of place here. And Midnight is supposed to = Winter I assume? I think it's silly. Funnily enough, although I thought it sounded very celeb, I did like the flow of Harlow Winter Kate, but I don't like this at all.

What do you all think?

I don't like it all. James Midnight would have been cool enough for a name, but Sparrow. Poor kid.

And I agree with you. Harlow & Sparrow are way too close.

Exactly. Too matchy yet they don't match at all! Sparrow might be OK for a girl's or even a boy's middle name, but Sparrow for a boy's first is terrible! Poor kid. And Midnight just sends the whole thing over the top.

Blechh. Harlow Winter Kate sounds classy and cool, while Sparrow James Midnight is just too much. Also, if I just saw the names Harlow and Sparrow I'd probably think they were both girls!

I absolutely hate saying them together - Harlow and Sparrow. I hate the matchy "ar" and "ow" elements, and when they're written and quickly glanced at, they look indistinguishable.

Do you think the shorlist ran something like this...

Arrow Michael Noon
Barrow Evening Isaac
Callow Jude Sunday
Elbow Dawn Ethan
Shadow Autumn Jack
Bungalow Fortnight John

;)

I agree! Too girly, too matchy, and a perfect example of an attempt at sib set matching at the expense of, and to the detriment, of the individual person that the baby will grow up to be. Such a disappointment after Harlow Winter Kate. Even James Sparrow Midnight would have been better. SUCK.

Ha ha lamps!!!

Actually I wondered if they would do an 11th hour name change to somehow honor DJ AM. Guess not.

I don't like it. Period... Midnight is overkill, and so is the obvious use of two nature names. The flow is off, Sparrow sounds feminine to me, and to close to Harlow so it's all just blahrgh!!
I have to say Kudos to them though! They managed to make James look misplaced! I can't think of anyone else who's done that! I think we should all try and do that!
Like Cinnamon Elizabeth Dewdrop, or Crane Jacob Wolfie (I wrecked my brains trying to make my suggestions sound bad, but it's reaally hard!!) XD

They should have asked Nameberry for some help!

Mmm I like it. Oh god, such an oddball!
I see what youre syaing about too similar though, but only on paper, To say Sparrow & Harlow aloud isnt very similar, other than the obvious "ow" endings. I dont like Midnight at all, as well... definite overkill. Sparrow isnt a name I myself would have chosen, but none the less... I think it works for them. Nicole is a hippie and Joel is a rocker.
