Hello! Would appreciate any thoughts/perspective on using [name_m]William[/name_m] as the formal given name and calling our little guy [name_m]Liam[/name_m] or just naming his [name_m]Liam[/name_m] outright. I’ve been thinking about this way too much and I’m really on the fence! 
Siblings are [name_f]Stella[/name_f] and [name_f]Elise[/name_f]. Our last name is three syllables and challenging to pronounce (has an “L” in first syllable, an “S” and long “I” sound in the middle, and ends with “TIS”). His first middle name is two syllables, starting with a “Y” sound and ending in “AS”. Second middle name carries through an “S” sound and is also two syllables. I like the options as he grows with [name_m]William[/name_m], but do not prefer some of the traditional nicknames associated with it. I also like that [name_m]Liam[/name_m] is short and goes along with the shortness of our entire family’s names (husbands is 4 letters and one syllable, mine is 4 letters and two syllables). The popularity of both names doesn’t bother us ([name_m]William[/name_m] is actually more popular in our part of the country than [name_m]Liam[/name_m]), since we have such a unique last name and the total number of babies getting the popular names is much lower than when we were growing up.
Thank you in advance!
