Help me choose a boy's name

Which of these do you think is the nicest boy's name? The surname begins with L, in case that helps. I will put them in order of my preference - help will be appreciated!

  1. Wesley (I like this because it's unusual in our area and quite old fashioned)
  2. Lewis
  3. Jared
  4. Rob

Those are my top 4 but I'm stuck between them!

I love both Wesley and Jared, but I feel Jared goes better with your surname.

Lewis

I like Rob if it's a nickname for Robert, but not on its own. Otherwise I like Jared the best.

When I said Lewis Lake out loud to DP, he said it made him think of Lois Lane Grin it did make me laugh but I doubt everyone would think of that, would they?

Jared is my favourite from your list. My dh is called Wesley, his only gripe is he gets called Lesley and Les. It seems to be what people hear when he introduces himself. Don't think it's a deal breaker.

I like all of them, Jared most and Lewis second. I prefer Robert to Rob for the birth certificate but Rob is a nice name.

Well our surname is Lake (quite common so doubt it will out me!)

Lewis Lake does sound quite catchy.

I like Jared.

Does Lewis sound OK with your surname?
