ragwort - thanks for helpful comment - obviously i like them both or wouldn't be choosing between them! thank goodness we don't all like the same names - wouldn't the world be a very boring place!! - Thanks everyone else for voting - seems Theo is the winner as it stands!!

Theo - think its a stronger name than Luke, IMO

My cousin is a Theo and it didn't suit him til he was a teenager. Before that he was baby or Mister T. Now it really suits him. Its not that popular round these parts.

Mutt my granddad is that fat Greek bloke and it suits him too.

Ds2 is Lucas and Ds3 (due December) will be Theo. Ds1 is Max by the way.

Sorry but I really don't like either - they are both fine for little boys but I'm not so sure about teenagers - how will they feel on the rugby pitch with those sort of names? Also, not very 'grown up' - can't imagine a 50 year old with either name Grin.

I have already posted Theo (as its a great name).
But have you considered Luca.

jellybeans · 28/09/2010 21:42

Luke. Both nice but Theo very 'in' so will date him more.

Theo, but only if Theodore is used on BC.

pointydog · 28/09/2010 20:14

Luke deff.

saltyseadog · 28/09/2010 20:05

Theo

deliakate · 28/09/2010 20:03

Theo or Lucas are lovely

LiquoriceLila · 28/09/2010 19:39

Luke but i have one so i'm biased

bluebump · 28/09/2010 16:53

I have a Theo so I am biased. It is getting fairly popular now though i've noticed, but that may not bother you (it doesn't me!)

badcoverversion · 28/09/2010 16:36

Theo for me.

Sunlightdances · 28/09/2010 16:08

Luke will always be Skywalker for me, which would be good if Han wasn't blatantly cooler. Wink

I adore Theo.

happysunshinedays · 28/09/2010 14:59

Both gorgeous. Theo.

smother · 28/09/2010 14:43

I'm luke warm about Luke.

Theo is one of my fav boys names, have noticed it getting pretty popular but for me that's not such a problem for boys names.

MrsRichardArmitage · 28/09/2010 14:35

Theo

NormanNorris · 28/09/2010 14:23

I would say that Theo is the most popular boys name where I live so I would personally go for Luke.

3plusbump · 28/09/2010 14:16

Luke

Lexx · 28/09/2010 13:24

Theo is much nicer!

branmuffin · 28/09/2010 13:14

Im with expectingno3 too, either Lucas or Theo.

lemonbergamot · 28/09/2010 13:11

Luke
