Mixed culture name?

Question

I am Canadian and have a very common English name. My boyfriend is Portuguese. His name is Kevin but he has Portuguese middle and last names. We have a daughter we wanted to give a Portuguese name to but didn’t find one we loved so she has a very common English name. 
 
We loved Portuguese boy names and want to use one (Mateus, Miguel, Manuel) 
Would it be weird if we all had common English names and only our son have a Portuguese name?

Answer

No and to be honest who gives a shit. They are your kids and it’s your family. Pick the names that make you happy 💙

Answer

My brother lived in Mozambique for several years where he spoke Portuguese, so he and his wife gave their daughter a Portuguese middle name. Then they moved to Zambia and their next daughter has a middle name from whatever tribal language they speak there.  They are white with very common American names. So you wanting to use a Portuguese middle name doesn’t even phase me. It might surprise your relatives but they will quickly adapt.

Answer

Mateus is such a beautiful name ❤️

Answer

Do what you want. Especially if he has a Portuguese last name I don’t think it’ll be weird at all. 
I’m Mexican. My husband is a quarter Italian but has a very Italian sounding first and last name. It was important to me for my kids to have names that worked well in both Spanish and Italian and we came up with perfect names (IMO). 
But we considered other names that were more Mexican and less Italian but ultimately decided against them. My husband also has two older daughters who have much more Anglo/European first names which isn’t my style at all. So the kids names don’t match. Which is fine. Everyone can have their own name :-)

Answer

I don’t think so! I have a Portuguese name, my hubby is Turkish and our future kid will prob have an English name
