I have a nearly 4 year old named William Benjamin, both family names. For the next child, we are considering Gillian (with a traditional J sound) for a girl. I would like another boy name that has an L in the middle, to sound similar to Will. I’ve considered Dillon, Elliot, Nolan, Nelson, Phillip. I know there must be others out there I’m not thinking of. Which one would match well?
This is a fun question. :)
Here’s a bunch of other names with an L-sound in the middle. (I left off W-names, figuring Ashley wouldn’t be interested in those.)

The name Tavio first appeared in the U.S. baby name data in the middle of the 1960s:
1968: unlisted
1967: unlisted
1966: 15 baby boys named Tavio [debut]
1965: unlisted
1964: unlisted
That was also the year the name saw its highest-ever usage.
Where did it come from?
A single-episode character on the short-lived ’60s TV show The Long, Hot Summer, which was set in Mississippi and based on the 1958 film of the same name.
The episode aired on February 23, 1966, and was called “Reunion – Italian Style.” In the episode, a woman returning to town brings along an Italian fiancé named Tavio Romano (played by actor Fabrizio Mioni). At one point there’s a conversation about his name, and viewers learn that Tavio’s name is short for Octavio and that he’s the eighth son in his family.
What are your thoughts on the name Tavio?
P.S. The woman with the Italian fiancé was played by actress Collin Wilcox, who’d portrayed Thedy Sue Hill a few years earlier.
Identical triplets Logan Thomas, Eli Kirkwood and Collin McGuire were born on February 27th at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, NY.
They were born to Allison Penn, 31, and Tom Penn, 46, through in vitro fertilization. (Allison was impregnated with a single embryo that split in half — then one of those halves split in half again.)
Unlike the triplets born in Austria a few months back, these boys don’t seem to have a pattern to their names. Sure, each name has 2 syllables, includes at least one “L,” and has been relatively trendy over the past decade or two — but those are pretty subtle connections. Many other male names (like Tyler, Dylan, Caleb, Landon and Liam) could be described in the same way.
What do you think about the names? Do you have a favorite first/middle combination, of the three?
