I like Joseph best because it is timeless and classic. It also has the great nn of Joe.
James is nice too but I dislike Jim and Jimmy so that might put me off.
Luke is my next favourite.
Austin is ok except that it reminds me of Austin Powers.

Ryan I dislike due to disliking a person by this name.
Lucas is very popular and I think it will date very quickly.

I know a few adult Lukes who don't like their names so I'd vote for Lucas over Luke. Really don't know that many and its not like Jack, Oliver or Harry in terms of popularity so I wouldn't be put off by that.
Quite like Austin. Know of one and he really suits it. Lovely boy.
Love Joseph..... Think it's a bit underused.

Joseph sounds like a kind little boy and a decent dependable and gentle man's name.

Luke, Joseph and James are lovely names. Joseph is my favourite, it's a lovely soft-sounding name Smile
