Boy after two girls

Hi everyone

We’ve got two girls, Martha and Anna, and we’ve just found out we’re having a boy. We really expected a girl so only had girls names lined up and really struggling to find a boys name we both like.

So far we both sort of like Sebastian and Ezra. DH likes Rafe, Eric and Theo/Leo none of which I love and I like Jago, Wilf and Cassius all of which he hates.

What do people prefer out of Sebastian or Ezra? Thanks for your help!

Sebastian it's awful. Strait from little Britain.

Def go with Sebastian!

Sebastian would have been my no 1 boy pick if it wasn’t terrible with our surname.

Neither are my thing, but I prefer Sebastian of the two. Ezra will date, it's very now, and it's a different style altogether to your girls' names.

Sebastian is great with those sister names. I do like Ezra but I agree it doesn’t really “go” with Martha and Anna — it’s a bit more trendy. How about Elias or Elliot? Or Caspar?

Sebastian

Ezra doesn't go and it's a bit zeitgeisty. Sebastian is better.

Rafe and Jago both also nice. Don't like the others.

Sebastian is fab

Sebastian is also the better name imo. I hear Ezra and think George.

Sebastian goes better with your girl's names imo.
