Yes, Joss is a boys name, a very cool one IMHO.

Have you got any more for your list?

Out of interest, what I DS2's name that cannot go with Raphael?

Just wondering if it is the same reason why I have doubts about using this name, which is otherwise my favourite.

Xavier for a boy?

I know I'm not allowed but I can't resist urging you to use Levi or Astrid. Wink
