Dominic

I do know a baby Gregory! He is about 18 mos.

I have a 14yr old Gregory (never worried about the Greggs bakers connection as their are loads of shops that have people’s names) He goes mainly by Greg nowadays. Also love Dominic though!

Gregory and Dominic are both lovely.

Oliver is so dull from overuse. Wasn't it nr 1 for many years...?

I like Gregory and Greg, you never hear it these days! Not keen on Dom which Dominic will end up being called. I get what PP is saying about popular names on MN and it wouldn't usually bother me but isn't Oliver the most popular boys name, or almost? I worked in a classroom a couple of years ago with 3 Olivers, they are everywhere! I admit it sounds nice though.

Gregory is my favourite of the three.

I love Gregory (or Gregor). Oliver and Dominic are nice too but not keen on the inevitable Oli or Dom, whereas I do like Greg.

Gregory - can be Greg or Rory

I also like both Dominic and Oliver. I know a few of both though, i know no little Gregory's and its a lovely name

I think most people here would say Dominic or Gregory, because they’re not fans of popular names.
But honestly, I’m not a fan of Dominic or Gregory. I can’t imagine a millennial baby called Greg (also think of that budget sandwich place called Greggs).
Oliver is the nicest albeit popular. But so what? It’s a nice classic well rounded name.
