our son is Theodore Roosvelt -- after my dad (Theodore) and his dad (my Grandfather).....and Scott Dad and older brother -- Roosevelt is a family name.
our girl name will be Katherin Beatrice. Bea is my Grandmother and my Mom's middle name.
Our boy will be CHALRES ---------. Chalres is my Grandfather (Bea DH, Mom's dad).
Earl is Scott middle name, and I am guessing what we will end up using as Charle's middle name. MIL would LOOOOOOOVE that. she wants the boy names Scott Earl after DH, I gave Dh that option with Theo's birth and he refused it. Earl is MIL's dad, Scott Grandfather. I jsut do not like the name. to me it is uneducated, white trash and the TV is NOT helping me.
Even if I liked the name -- to name a child any name that is a big tv name at the time of their birth is, to me, wrong ... he is gonna face a life of thinking that show is where we got the name, or at least having OTHERS think that. ALso Charles is very regal, as is Thedore, Earl is NOT -- it is -- to me -- hicks ville and trailers and 4 burent cars in the drive way.
We are also considering Samual, Joesph and Aberham -- all noble biblical names......and others .... Samual is also a family name on MIL side, maybe enoughto shut her up (riight nothign will shut her up, but maybe enough for me to act like i threw her a bone????).
Also there are no Saint Erals that I can find -- still looking...... I would be ok with a non-biblcal name if there was a strong Staint tradtion to it.
Dh has not had his say -- so far he jsut wants to give me crap with stupid suggestions....to push my buttons......and he tried to tell me "but Earl is Biblical too" -- I told him to find it for me int eh Bible as a Proper Name and we will talk
................but i fear i may have to accept this one 
other suggestions, thoughts, advice......
