Advice on naming - dreamt of name

A bit weird, I am not given to dreams or superstition much.

Just before my DS was born, I dreamt that we had named him a particular name. However, we are settling on a name for him so we can register him and it's a different name from my dream. Both names would suit him fine.

Has anyone else had this? What did you go for? How did it turn out?

I know it's a bit crazy so feel free to post opinion too ;)

Are you willing to tell us the names? As hard to give advice when we dont know what they are.

I mean, it just depends what you prefer

The name I dreamt of is really common, the one we're thinking of is less common but really suits him. My partner likes the name we're thinking of. I don't know which I prefer.

Which one do you prefer? What has your partner said about it?
