Which name for our little boy? Last name is one syllable.

Much prefer Thomas.

I like both but prefer Thomas/Tom.

I think he will be Thomas, Joshua as a middle name

I must add I like Josh too, but if I had to pick one I’d go for Tom.

Valkarie · 21/09/2019 15:28

Thomas is a great name

Joshua, My older brother is Josh, it suited him as a kid and it suits him as a adult.
Thomas/Tom is way too over used.

Love Josh, although can be a bit of a tongue tie, "Josh's toys"... Tom is a good strong name.

I prefer Josh, but I have one so I'm biased ! Lots of Toms in our family, a couple known as Tommy.

dirtyrottenscoundrel · 21/09/2019 15:20

Thomas/ Tom.
Lovely name. ( think Tom is very cool )

GU24Mum · 21/09/2019 15:16

I like Tom/Thomas but am not a fan of Josh.

I don’t mind Josh or Tom @LuciferTheCat so which is your favourite of the two?

OP posts:

Marcipex · 21/09/2019 13:17

Tom is nicer than Josh , which I do think is a bit wet sounding.

LuciferTheCat · 21/09/2019 13:15

so when he’s older he’s either going to be Josh or Tom. I just find them so bland and overused

Peachbubble · 21/09/2019 13:10

I vote for Thomas
