i'd go for jonathan over john as it gives more options - jon, jono, jonty...depending on what suits the child

My brother is called Jonathan. He's an adult now and is known as Jonathan or Jon, although my DD is the only person ever allowed to call him Jonny.

I have to say that I personally prefer Jonathan to John.

I have a John, so much easier for your young DC to learn to spell/writeGrin.

TA, really?
That's good to know. Smile
I'm sorry if I have offended.
It's only an abstract issue when you don't know the people involved.
I'm sure the Jonathons in question are utterly scrumptious!

I have a Jonathan too! I just love it still and he's almost 5. Sorry you don't like it Moondog - you won't remember but you were once very kind to me here when as a new Mum I was worried - I had given said Jonathan the previous day's milk accidently and you calmed me right down. Smile
