Thoughts on the name Isaac. Isaac Frank?

Love the name Isaac! We'd probably have used it, but there's already one in the family.
Isaac Franklin goes really well (depending on your surname, of course!)

PutYourSlippersOn · 26/02/2018 11:55

I like it.

shetookshelter · 26/02/2018 11:30

Two of my favourite names but both were vetoed by OH :(

So I love Isaac Frank. I'd be a bit jealous!

DoraMilaje · 26/02/2018 11:10

Isaac is lovely but I think Isaac Franklin sounds better than Isaac Frank. Just a suggestion.

RosieCotton · 26/02/2018 10:53

Yeah my son is Isaac too. It means he who laughs. Its the best name :)

My Isaac is 6 and suits the name down to the ground. I love it, it’s definitely grown in popularity though and I agree with the spelling thing- he gets really offended if it’s wrong!

Ive an isaac. husband chose it and i was annoyed as i thought it was hugely popular. At soft play when he was a baby / toddler / preschooler there was always another mum shouting ‘isaac!’ And i used to be really irritated about it. Then all the isaacs just disappeared. He is the only one in his school and i very rarely hear the name anymore.

Absolutely love it but agree that it is v popular. It also seems to be a names that people have real trouble spelling so be prepared to see ‘Issac’ a lot.

DramaAlpaca · 25/02/2018 22:44

I don't like Isaac at all, sorry.

Francis is much nicer than Frank.

Love it but massively popular

CPtart · 25/02/2018 20:26

Love Isaac. Quite biblical. Love Zachary too.

17caterpillars1mouse · 25/02/2018 19:42

It's nice name but very common atm. At least here it is

PassiveAggressivePamela · 25/02/2018 19:36

I love it Grin but I’m not sure if Frank quite works afterwords. The two Isaacs I know of are Isaac James, and Isaac Thomas.

ChocolateCrunch · 25/02/2018 19:32

Not keen, sorry. It's the sound of it (not keen on Zachary either).

yawning801 · 25/02/2018 18:42

I love Isaac too.

qazxc · 25/02/2018 18:41

Love it.

thisismadness77 · 25/02/2018 18:38

DD would have been Isaac. He who laughs!

loobywench · 25/02/2018 18:37

My favourite boys name Smile

MikeUniformMike · 25/02/2018 18:34

CatsForgotPassword · 25/02/2018 18:32
