We are still struggling to decide on a boy's name for if our baby due in a week is a boy. Recently we have been thinking about Gabriel. What are people's thoughts? Too much teasing potential? Would Gabe be inevitable? Our other choices are James, Samuel or Theodore.

My one year old is called Gabriel - my husband's choice and I wasn't sure at first. I adore it now. He does get Gabe from some people but I also love that

I like James,Theodore and Samuel all more than Gabriel, which I see as a very weak name.

But it is pretty popular at the moment, so I may be alone there!

Gabriel is lovely

He would probably be Gabe which I think is equally lovely! Gabriel was on our list - it's a great name! Best of luck!

He would be Gabe, I like Theo, just Theo no dore.
