Hate Harry. Hate all those old man names that have come back. There are about a billion Harrys round here, too, but may be different where you live.
I liked Kobe when I was pregnant with DH (without the 'i'...i think it's a Swahili name, actually) but at the time Kobe Bryant was on trial for rape, so thought, hmmm, perhaps not
Ellis is OK, not a name I would chose but I wouldn't think if I heard it shouted in the aisles at Tesco.
Dante is too poncetastic and Kobie - I like the sound of the word iyswim but he would spend his life spelling it to people and explaining where his unusual name came from.
lol no not yet, feel so bad when ppl stop and ask his name!its between Harry and Ellis. My daughters called Ebony so goes with both.All my family want the name Harry,my sister even bought me a cute lil keyring with the name Harry on it,ha no presure then!
To me the names are very different and bring to mind different looking children... Harry and Ellis make me think of a white child, Kobie and Dante I would imagine on a mixed race or black child.
I think Ebony and Dante look/sound the best match for siblings.
Hmm I was going for Ellis, because Ellis Masters sounds good to me, but not sure about Ebony and Ellis as a combination. Too similar for me. I don't like nicknames as full names, so not Harry although I'd go fo Henry - to me Henry Masters has much more gravitas than Harry Masters, and the shotneings are also available (I like Hal better than Harry personally). However if you aleady have one unusual name in the family, then what the hell, go for Danté. Trés cool! Dh is a big fan of Danté - he was a great charactor (especially when it comes to insults )
not that this is a good enough reason for you!
