I like Donna's suggestion. Go for Michael Spyridon. Having seen kids taunt other kids with unusal names, I say break with tradition. Maybe you both should look at a third name..

I like the connection of the name with the childs grandfather. and the kids will nickname him Spy or Spyder which is going to be cool. go for it. unusual names build character.

I love the name Spyridon! When you hear such odd names that celebrities chose for their children, they only make sense to them. This is a tradition that should be carried on, and it is born out of history, which gives the name honor and meaning.

The argument is the saddest thing. The father should give in to the mother out of respect for her feelings, and women feel their child's name the most strongly. the child has a name that is perfect to define or represent him. It is a vibration. The most important thing is not that anyone gets their way but that the right name is given to match who the child is. the mother often will feel this more accurately than anyone else. if the father is fighting with the mother it is a very sad beginning for the child and the family. marriage is also about compromise and selflessness, and love, and this is what is spiritual and Godly. No one parent has a godly right over anyone else, not the spouse and not their child. Each parent has the mature responsibility to put themselves second and to put the happiness of their whole family as more important than the happiness of themselves. Godly is selflessness and love for the other family members. There are no Godly rights. God gives love to others and sacrifices in selfless ways so others are happy and peaceful. To bring a fight into a new family is to forget what it is to love the others in your family. The father is having an attitude of entitlement and of argument and of competition. The father needs to set a family atmosphere of compromise and of selflessness and of love being more important than in getting ones own way over the other. the tone is being set by the father for the rest of the mother and child's family life. do not start the childs new life with an argument or a selfishness. start the child's new life off with love and compromise. if the parents treat each other with love then the child will have a happy life. the father's argument is setting the tone of the start of his new families life with hatred and argument and righteousness, instead of love and respect for the mother and the child. if the father does not truly love the mother, but feels a need to argue and compete, then how can a happy family life begin for

That boy deserves to be named after his grandfather Spyridon

Don't deny your husband the right to name his son after his father. It is an important family tradition. You can give the boy a shorter nickname.
