I have added a name poll to the blog - on the far right side of the screen. We are anxious to choose a name for this little one, so we can stop calling him Baby Maddox #3. Please vote your favorite - it is anonymous - don't worry! We may add to the poll if we come up with any more names. We also welcome any suggestions - just send it to us or post in the comment box below.
Our top 3 names right now are Silas, Sawyer and Smith. We are still undecided on middle names, so vote for just the first name that you like best.
Silas is a biblical name (yes, there is also a Silas on the show "Duck Dynasty" - Uncle Sy) that means "the third". We like the middle name "Asher" because it means "blessed or blessing". So this name together means "the third blessing" - pretty appropriate for our family, right?
Sawyer is a name we have always liked. It is a leftover from when we deciding on a name for Sutton...Sawyer was a close second and we still like it!
Smith is just a name that we both like. Yes, the idea for the name technically came from the character from the "Sex in the City" series/movie "Smith Jarret" - but we like it paired with the middle name Asher.

I like all 3 but love the meaning of Silas Asher. It seems very fitting. I don't watch Duck Dynasty but I know it's very popular so the only negative I can see is that the name Silas may become very popular.
ReplyDeleteWe did consider Sterling...it just did not make our top 3 - partly because it is now a popular girls name. And unfortunately Juan San Pedro Valdez and Christopher Wayne are out - they don't start with an S! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat about Sadler? :)
ReplyDeleteI still like "Mark" or "Smark" if you have to keep the "S" theme going....
ReplyDeleteSawyer or Silas sound good to me...as long as they will fit on the back of a cowboy belt!
Thinking and praying for yall.

When I say the Name "Sawyer Maddox", it just has a good sound to it. I like the meaning of Asher - of being a Blessing. So "Sawyer Asher Maddox" is my pick. Sounds like a "Wonderful" Cowboy!!
