I'm presuming you're Jewish? You might have a bad reaction in the Jewish community to the name Ezra.

Ezra - goes well with the other names and is a fabulously cross-cultural name.

um some are hebrew while others are yiddish.
And yes in the UK
maybe would consider David but kind of wanted either obvious hebrewy name or if more common then the yiddish version.

Tomer is my favourite of those, followed by Dovid. Not fond of Ezra, Evron or Matan.

I think Evron is lovely (and has good connotations to all Georgette Heyer fans). I also like Ezra. The others are OK, but less to my taste. I'd avoid Dovid as, if you're in UK, people will assume it's a spelling mistake, but perhaps that wouldn't bother you? Or you might consider David too?

Ooh, interesting names! What culture do they come from? Smile

I think Dovid would be oft mistaken for David (presuming you live in an English speaking country), so that could be a problem.

I like Matan and Ezra the best.

Yussel is ok.
Evron reminds me of something negative although I cannot put my finger on it.
Tomer, I dislike somewhat.

Matan is really very nice.

Ezra is lovely!

Ezra, or Dovid second choice. I love Ezra, it is my name for (probably not going to happen!) next ds. Goes v well with Zusa.

I love them all actually!
But with Zusa I like Evron or Dovid the most.
