I think you can use both - using Spyridon as the middle name. You can satisfy both wants with a nice compromise.

Spyridon is a gorgeous name and unique. Strong men behind the name and just on the agreement that she will name the baby if its a girl, and the second baby if one should come, should give you this right. And personally, I love some of the names that are of Greek origin. We named our son Achilles Coridon

If she agreed to let you name your male children, the choice is all yours!

One word... tradition. A name so common and overused as Michael should be demoted to middle name status only. I went out of the box on my 3rd son and get more compliments on his name. Neither you nor the child will regret it. My son loves his unique, traditional name as opposed to my 1st born whose common overused name I love but regret for not giving him something more original like him. Wishing you health and happiness with either result.

Spyridon (Ancient Greek: Σπυρίδων; Modern Greek: Σπυρίδωνας) is a Greek male given name. It is often shortened to Σπύρος (Spyros, often Anglicised as Spyro or Spiro) since Spyridon sounds too archaic and ecclesiastical. The name's origins are traced to ancient Greek, originating from Spyris (Σπυρίς), meaning the one who manufactures spyrides (σπυρίδες), which were a kind of wicker baskets, or meaning the affluent, the rich man, who has much grain or other goods to spyrides (σπυρίδες).

Michael is such a common name. But I appreciate how her input is considered otherwise.
