Need help - does this make you think of a toilet?

Am 26 weeks pregnant and we decided not to find out what we are having. For a boy we have always liked the name Elijah Wesley - even before we were married and thinking of having children.

Although i still love this name there are some members of our family that think we should call it Wesley Elijah instead. I however have a niggling problem with this as our last name begins with a C.

Question is: do you think that it would be cruel to give our child the initials WC? Does this still hold the same strong association as it used to in the past?
Which name do you prefer: Elijah Wesley or Wesley Elijah - both names have a lot of meaning to us and so are very unlikely to change them.

Thank you for all your help.

Elijah Wesley is better!

Lovely name...

Thats a really nice name, i like it lots! As for the WC...thats absolutely fine. Im currently think of boys names and it is so hard. Every name i come up with i always seem to relate it to someone not very nice,or a name that could be shortened, or a name that may get bullied at school!! I guess u do have to think of all these things but WC is quite an old fashioned way of toilet anyway so i dont think u should worry. If i was going to have a girl i wanted to call her Beau...BO(!)....i think thats something more to worry about!!
Good luck hun

Hey

Elijah Wesley is better after all you liked that before you were married and trying so why change it because of family like it other way. Its your baby you get to chose the name, i wouldnt worry about the family.
