Raphael, definitely.

Have you discounted Rafferty? I know a lovely small one. Potential nicknames are the same.

I thought of Judy Blume too!

Ralph

Raphael. Ralph has connotations from the judy Blume book for me, though not sure how popular they still are.

Ralph. I like this but DH has said no.

Like them both actually. Not usually my type of name so i've surprised myself there. Ralph, but only by a wee bit.
