I like Alexander particularly for Sandy as a nickname.

Alexander
Leo is too common now

They are both lovely names aren't they!

I think Leo is very 'now' which is putting me off a little. Alexander is definitely more timeless. I don't mind any of the shortened versions either.

I guess we wait and see what he looks like when he comes out, but I'm enjoying hearing all the opinions so far.

These are 2 of my 3 favourite boys’ names (the other is Dominic).

I think I would choose Leo because Alexander will end up getting shortened and I’m not so keen on the short forms. Also because I know a lot of little Alexanders already...

My DS is a Leo Alexander. You have great taste

I am biased, but Alexander

Alexander for sure. Leo is cute. But Alexander is classic and will stand the test of time.

Leo

Alexander. It's more classic, Leo is very popular at the moment and could be a bit of a trend name.
