Nathaniel is my favourite, followed by Nicholas.

But I really like all of them.

Really like all of them, probably Michael the least. Nicholas is a great name but am not overly keen on Nick.

I like them all.

I know a zillion Bens though so it depends if you. Ind how popular the name is.

Michael may become Mike which isn't the best nn.

I really like Reuben and Nicholas.

I'd also avoid Benjamin as he may end up as Ben of which there are loads already.

Nicholas would be my pick, with nn Nico - lovely name and not too common right now. Second choice would be Nathaniel.

Nathaniel or Reuben, not keen on any of the others. Reuben can also be shortened to Ben and is much nicer than Benjamin!

Nathaniel - by a mile - then Reuben then Nicholas.

Benjamin and Michael are a little dull.

Reuben I had it on my list but DH vetoed it

I like Nathaniel (Nat for short) and Reuben who could be Ruby or Ben.

Ben and Nick are both very popular and a bit boring, but nice enough.

Not a fan of Michael/Mike.
