Rafferty vs. Jago

A brother for Wilf(red) is due in a few weeks and I cannot decide. Our surname begins with R.

I've loved Rafferty throughout but DH seems keener on Jago. I loathe nn Jay (sorry if this offends anyone) and am worried it'll get shortened.

I have Cornish roots and so the family will love Jago. I just think that Wilf and Raffy go beautifully together!

Sorry, I have posted before but we're now down to final two I need some objectivity!

Sorry I'm with your DH.

Rafferty is not particularly exceptional with Wilf vs Jago, you have an R surname and every Setter owner in the world thinks they've had an original thought when they call the dog Rafferty - there are about 20 here. It would be like having a baby called Spot.

However that aside, Rafferty Rxxx is not something most would thank you for.
