Micah is my favourite
Like some of the others but (Robert, Theodore, Edward and Patrick are not my taste).

Tillygetsit · 24/05/2019 22:52

Patrick is my favourite with nn Paddy. Like Isaac and really don't like Micah.

I like Patrick and LOVE Robert.

LuannC · 24/05/2019 21:38

Faves are Elijah, Theodore, Reuben & Jesse.
Othrer names (not that your wanting new names) that have the same feel are
Simeon.
Ramone
Caolan.

RainbowWaffles · 24/05/2019 21:36

I love Jesse and was my second choice for DS. Quite like Edward too. Theodore and Charlie irritate me. The rest I am indifferent about.

Rocketgirl1 · 24/05/2019 21:34

All ok. Not keen on Robert or Patrick.

Hippopotas · 24/05/2019 21:32

I like them except Reuben and Jesse

Hawkinsfirefly99 · 24/05/2019 21:09

My 1 year old is Robert. I chose Robert because it's a timeless classic but very under used at the moment.

To be fair, i like most of those names on your list.

Heymummee · 24/05/2019 21:03

Micah - not keen, reminds me of the annoying singer.
Elijah - lovely, never met one, think it’s a great name for any age child.
Caleb - like this
Dylan - nice but lots of them around
Charlie - not keen, too popular
Edward - lovely. I love Eddie, Ed and Ted as nicknames too.
Theodore - biased, but my DS2 is Theodore. A lot of people say it’s very popular but I’ve not come across any others. Theo or Ted as abbreviations are very cute and suit any age.
Robert - timeless name, I like it.
Isaac - not keen
Reuben - very cute but quite popular these days
Jesse - indifferent about this. It’s a nice name but sounds a bit wet if you see what I mean?
Albert - very cute, could be shortened to Albie, but there’s a few of them in my DS1’s school year.
Patrick - not keen
Ronan - not keen, sounds a bit too grown up.

SleepingStandingUp · 24/05/2019 21:03

Micah lovely, don't know onr
Elijah love this along with Ezekiel and Ezriel
Caleb reminds me of the weird kid in American Gothic
Dylan ok
Charlie ok
Edward OK if you nn it whilst they're little
Theodore as above. Like them both but they're heavy names for a baby
Robert no
Isaac I like but prefer Izaak
Reuben adore
Jesse girl
Albert no
Patrick no
Ronan keating. No
