I like Peter and Ernest from your first list and I think Adam is definite contender, I think it's really under used at the moment

thanks.

How about Rex or Adam? I love Rex - i know it s a very old traditional name but as it lost popularity for a while is it still a name which is taken seriously?

Adam i like but i am worried about it being boring or common - any thoughts?

I remember a very similar recent list, too.
Love Peter and Felix, and like Albert.
Not keen on the others.

Like Elwood and Felix. Might Conrad fit the bill?

Daphnedolittle · 22/08/2015 11:25

Albert Ernest or Felix. Love Ernie!

Peter.
Absolutely.

I like Ford the most out of your list. Strong and unusual

Cookie122 · 21/08/2015 20:10

i like ernest can also be shortened to ernie Grin if you like it

Thatsnotmybabyname · 21/08/2015 19:36

I like Albert and Rupert

My favourites are Felix, Isaac and Ernest. Personally I don't like first names which sound like surnames (probably because I grew up with a surname that is more commonly a first name - it's really annoying!) so for me that would rule out Elwood, Stirling and Ford.

RiverTam · 21/08/2015 19:01

Haven't we had this list quite recently?

Sophronia · 21/08/2015 18:56

I like Stirling, Ernest, Albert and Peter.
