I don't see the problem if you choose to give your child a nn based on a surname.
Benjamin Ezra (Benji if anythin) - nice. I don't care for Benji though. It reminds me of the dog. I only know of one Benjamin who doesn't go by Ben.
Daniel Ambrose - Both names are nms but I think they make a nice combo. I can't think of any Daniels who go by Daniel.
Elijah Xavier (MAYBE Eli) - I think both names are nice but I'm not sure about the combo's flow. I know two Elijahs and both go by Elijah not Eli.
Jason Donovan - the endings are too similar for my taste. All the Jasons I know go by Jason except for occasionally being called Jay, but I don't know any Jasons under 25 either.
Miles Octavian (one hubby and I have talked about, intails are MOW, so we thought nn Mo would be cute) - It's a decent combo although I dislike Miles and nn Mo.
Thomas Nikolai - I like it. Nikolai is nms but in this combo I'm really liking it. I only know one Thomas who goes by THomas.
William Emmett (Another he already approved of) - I like both names but not together. I know a couple Williams who go by William. The vast majority are Bill.
Zachary Logan - It's a nice enough combo but it does nothing for me. I don't know any Zacharys who are actually called Zachary.
