We have 9 names that we really like and I definitely don't particularly prefer one over the other. Wondering if people could just put these in order of preference to help us out a bit? Thanks

  • Adam
  • Aleksander
  • Bruno
  • Daniel
  • Gabriel
  • Jakub
  • Leon
  • Olaf
  • Oskar

Are you Polish and living in the UK?

I think they’re all great names apart from Olaf which will make people think of Frozen unfortunately! And I’m not a big fan of Bruno either, but I like all the others.

Anyway this is my list, it’s influenced by the fact that I’m English and prefer the spellings that are the same in English:

  1. Adam
  2. Daniel
  3. Gabriel
  4. Leon
  5. Aleksander
  6. Jakub
  7. Oskar
  8. Bruno
  9. Olaf

Leon.

I'm not keen on the spellings but I'm guessing you're not from UK so I'll list them in order of my favourites based on how they sound:

Jakub
Oskar
Adam
Daniel
Aleksander
Gabriel
Leon
Bruno
Olaf

Olaf is too associated with frozen as PP said and I really like Alexander but Aleksander reminds me of the compare the market meercat.

Bruno
Olaf
Oskar
Don’t really like the others.

littlecabbage · 07/07/2018 06:17

I think Olaf is a great name, but too closely associated with Frozen at the mo xx

Cadencia · 07/07/2018 06:14

I prefer the traditional spellings of these names (unless you're not from the U.K.?). So I'd say:

Adam
Alexander
Jacob
Oscar

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 07/07/2018 06:11

Daniel
Adam

Alexander like that, if pronounciation is the same.

FurryDice · 07/07/2018 06:09

Adam
Daniel
Leon

I don’t like all hard ‘k’s in the other names.
