Our second son was born yesterday. We had initially liked the name Torban but now he is here we are not sure if it is a bit ‘out there’. The other names we like are Ezra and Luca/Lucas Our first son is called Jackson.

Ezra goes really well with Jackson. Congratulations op!

Lucas or Luca

user1498549192 · 16/09/2018 19:33

I like Lucas, and think it goes best with Jackson and with your surname.

Eggoispreggo · 16/09/2018 18:52

My friends little boy is called Lorcan, which is kind of a combo of two of yours? Might work Smile

Torsten? I also teach a Linus this year which I actually quite like!

AliceRR · 16/09/2018 18:39

Ezra is nice but makes me think of Pretty Little Liars...

Sungura · 16/09/2018 18:37

I really like Luca, then Lucas. Congrats on your little boy! ❤️

MinisterforCheekyFuckery · 16/09/2018 18:36

Luca/Lucas both sound great with your surname. Ezra goes well too and I like the name but I know three baby Ezra's born this year so it seems a bit 'trendy', although that may not matter to you. I'm sorry but I don't think Torban/Torben really works with your last name.

Frazzled2207 · 16/09/2018 18:36

Don't like Torben or Torban. Makes me think of turban. What about Tobin?
I like Ezra and Lucas. Quite a few Lucas's round here, not yet come across an Ezra

Viviolet · 16/09/2018 18:35

Lucas 100%

SoupDragon · 16/09/2018 18:33

I agree with those who have said Torban doesn’t work with your surname at all.

I love Ezra and Luca/Lucas though. Which doesn’t help you narrow it down!

SuperstarDJ · 16/09/2018 18:29

What about Torin? I much prefer it to Torban.

I prefer Lucas to Ezra and I’m not keen on Luca.

MyNewBearTotoro · 16/09/2018 00:09

Luca is beautiful and would definitely be my choice.

I like Ezra but I agree with previous posters it’s very popular now and the same for Lucas. Never heard of Torban but not keen and I don’t think it goes with your surname at all.

Picknickers · 16/09/2018 00:07

Another vote for Ezra. Lovely.

dustarr73 · 15/09/2018 23:50

Love Ezra.

Dadsbigsausages · 15/09/2018 23:28

It's a Lucas from me. Although I don't know any Ezra's and didn't realise it was well used now.

Heatherbaby · 15/09/2018 23:19

A vote for Luca or Lucas from me. Congrats x

ReginaPhalange89 · 15/09/2018 13:59

I don't like torban sorry,

Luca is gorgeous. Lucas and Ezra are both nice too, Luca or Lucas for me

WerewolfNumber1 · 15/09/2018 13:30

I don’t think torben works with your surname even if you spell it torban.

Luca is very cool and you don’t meet a lot of them.

Congratulations :)

Sophronia · 15/09/2018 13:28

Lucas Benfold or Ezra Benfold sound better.

LarkDescending · 15/09/2018 13:10

Congratulations! Lucas is the nicest on your list. Ezra is everywhere, but I don’t get the appeal of it at all.

Torrin is an interesting suggestion, or the other spelling Torin?

FogCutter · 15/09/2018 12:25

If you like Torben, what about Torrin?

Quangot · 15/09/2018 12:15

Ezra is my favourite.

MikeUniformMike · 15/09/2018 11:38

Ezra goes well with Jackson.
Torban will be Turban.
Lucas is nice but very popular.

Icklepup · 15/09/2018 11:18

Ezra Benfold
