We really need to make a decision now! We are down to Theo, Samuel or Luke. Any opinions on these three? Thanks very much!

Theo

Samuel!

ShutTheFridgeUp · 28/04/2018 17:14

Another vote for Luke

deptfordgirl · 28/04/2018 16:55

Luke is lovely. Samuel is fine and Theo is sweet but so so popular.

Carouselfish · 28/04/2018 16:27

Luke.
Not keen on the Muel/Mewl/Mule/Gruel sound of Samuel. If I just wanted Sam, I'd go Samson for the long version

MikeUniformMike · 28/04/2018 15:11

Sam. Luke is ok but Theo is too trendy

Cosmoa · 28/04/2018 15:07

Samuel Smile

Prefer Theodore to Theo. Samuel is the one I would choose.

Okaynowimconfused · 28/04/2018 13:09

Samuel.

DD was going to be Theodore (Theo for short) but is now going to be Thea.

The only issue I have with Theo now is its massive rise in popularity in the last couple of years, but maybe I was paying more attention to it?

Samuel

IVflytrap · 28/04/2018 12:38

Samuel.

Shiftymake · 28/04/2018 12:32

From least to best in my opinion:
Luke- 3
Theo-2
Samuel-1

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 28/04/2018 12:25

Theo . Love it.

Luke - don't like mainly due to all the Luke's I've met

Samuel - nothing against the name itself it's just that I know so many Samuels it's ridiculous

dotdotdotmustdash · 28/04/2018 12:22

Luke. I've worked with lots of children and Lukes are always smart, cool and sensible.

Mind you, so are Samuels and Theos...

LoveInTokyo · 28/04/2018 10:12

Luke

StarlaMack · 28/04/2018 08:34

Theo

Sophronia · 28/04/2018 08:29

Luke is underused nowadays

17caterpillars1mouse · 28/04/2018 08:22

Luke
Or Samuel

Please not another Theo

Samuel

lornathewizzard · 28/04/2018 07:19

Is he here yet? I think you need to wait to see him. I like all the names but they’re all quite different to each other I think.

blinkineckmum · 28/04/2018 07:11

Sam

AnyaMoondial · 28/04/2018 07:08

Samuel or Luke. Samuel can be shortened to Sam and Sammy is cute for a little one so that's my favourite.

HugMeBringItIn · 28/04/2018 07:07

Luke! Such a cool name. I know a young Samuel and a young Theo but no Lukes under 18.

FusRoDah · 28/04/2018 07:03

They are all nice - Samuel was on our shortlist.
