Baby names

Top five names we both like, no clear favourite!

First child due soon. This is the top five we both agreed we like but there isn't one that we are absolutely in love with. I guess it's now a question of wait and see what our son looks like when he's born and what we feel suits him.. Opinions welcome in the meantime!

Conrad
Leo
Francis
Miles
Remy

Miles is my favourite but it's also my cats name!

Is Remy to rhyme with Rennie or is it ree-mee?

Remy sounds French. (Fine if you are. Perhaps a bit try-hard if not?)

So, any of the others.

Leo, Miles then Remy.

I don't like Francis (Frank) and hate Conrad.

I know a Norwegian Remy, so wouldn't say it's exclusively French.
