Ok so baby nugget is 2 weeks old today and he is still nameless, I have managed to narrow the list down to 4 but can't decide which to choose. Just hoping for some opinions/suggestions to get it down to at least 2 if not the 1, so there's
Isaac (liked from the beginning on and off)
Zachary (his father doesn't like it)
Vinnie (New and random name that popped into my head last week)
And finally Dominic (father's fave and I quite like it, everyone else doesn't)
Thank you in advance Smile

Isaac for it's great meaning but if not Dominic.

CormoranStrike · 11/06/2014 15:32

Isaac then Dominic, others not so great.

What about Flynn?

useryourillusion · 11/06/2014 15:31

Dominic Isaiah?

halfdoneharris · 11/06/2014 14:22

Isaac or Dominic are both great, and it is a good sign that both you and DH like the names as that is a really important consideration. Also why I rule out Zachary as both parents have got to love it.
Vinnie is a no no from me, and is only passable if he is called Vincent...but I still prefer the top two.

itfcbabe · 11/06/2014 13:24

Love the name Issac
Dominic is ok

don't like the other 2.

FeelingIrie · 11/06/2014 02:50

I like Vincent nn Vinnie!
Also like Isaac.

Not keen on other two options myself.

Congrats OP x

darksideofthemooncup · 11/06/2014 02:42

Like Dominic but what about Sebastian?

RonaldMcDonald · 11/06/2014 02:40

Dom is best

Vinnie reminds me of that thug footballer chap

Brabra · 11/06/2014 02:35

Vinnie! Fab name.
it is the name of my dog, but I would have loved to use it for a baby!

ThingsThatShine · 11/06/2014 02:32

Dominic then Isaac, v keen on both
Zachary is quite nice too
Vinnie not so nice

TheWholeOfTheSpoon · 11/06/2014 02:24

I clicked on this thread thinking, I think he's a "Clive". It's probably not much help!

Mutteroo · 11/06/2014 02:08

Vinnie is my favourite. Like Vincent too.
Also like all your other choices & think you have fabulous taste in boys names.

Wishfulmakeupping · 11/06/2014 01:00

Love Vincent with Vinnie as a nn really really cool.
Issac and Zachary are ok-ish not my cup of tea really.
Dominic is nice.

Nospringflower · 10/06/2014 22:41

I have a Zac but have always loved Dominic but been told too posh for us! Dominic then!

TLHW · 10/06/2014 22:32

Love Dominic and Isaac... Both strong, solid names and yet very sweet for a little boy also. :) Congratulations.

devoncreamtea · 10/06/2014 16:37

Isaac. If you've liked it throughout, then it's the one to go for! I love Zachary too, but if your dh really doesn't then no go!

lljkk · 10/06/2014 16:37

I like them in this order
Zachary (nice)
Isaac (solid, fine)
Dominic (meh)
Vinnie (yuck)

flipflopsonfifthavenue · 10/06/2014 16:29

Dominic.

Guin1 · 10/06/2014 16:04

Another vote for Dominic. It sounds to me like that's the name you really want to use anyway! And it works well with Isaac as a mn (unless your surname starts with C, K, E or possibly M).

idontlikealdi · 10/06/2014 15:10

Dominic

Lots and lots and lots of Isaac's around here.

First reaction to Vinnie was not good but you know, I think I quite like it.

betold · 10/06/2014 15:05

Don't let other people put you off a name. My DM hated my DSs name at first and actually kept calling him something different altogether!

She has got used to it now.

Dominic is really nice, and I don't think posh, it's more unusual that Zac and Isaac which are quite popular - is that a good thing or not?

MamaDoGood · 10/06/2014 14:58

I have a beautiful little 2 year old Vinnie. Iam v shocked that mumsnet don't like it !

soontobeslendergirl · 10/06/2014 14:58

Dominic and Isaac are nice, or maybe Elijah/Eli?

wigglesrock · 10/06/2014 14:52

I love Dominic, it was on the list for every one of my 3 daughters Smile .

Smile

I can't warm to Vinnie at all, Zachary is alright. Isaac I think is a lovely name written down & said in my head but when I hear it said out loud, (I know 2) I don't like it as much.

ashesandfire · 10/06/2014 14:42

Dominic is my favourite, love that name. Closely followed by Isaac.
Not keen on Zachary and Vinnie is awful, sorry.
