So tonight I got husband to write down 10 boys names he liked after chucking a baby book at him. What do you think of these?
Adam
Asher
Eli
Leo
Paddy (Patrick)
Rufus
Zachary
And he stopped there!

Eli my favourite from that list!

Adam - sooo boring
Asher - that’s not a name. Unless you’re Jane and make cakes
Eli - don’t like
Leo - bearable
Paddy (Patrick) - no
Rufus - ok
Zachary - too popular

I like them all! Rufus, Leo and Eli are probably my favorites though.

Ginandplatonic · 15/10/2019 05:07

Top 3: Rufus, Patrick and Leo
Bottom 3: Asher, Eli and Zachary

GeoffreyAndBungle · 15/10/2019 04:58

I like Asher, Eli and Patrick

Astronica · 15/10/2019 03:15

I love Rufus, my favourite. I really like Leo, Paddy/Patrick, and Zachary.

I don't mind Adam, but dislike Asher and Eli.

It doesn't matter what we like, what do you like? And if you don't like any of these, what sort of names do you like, and can we help you find a compromise?

Doyoureallyneedtoask · 15/10/2019 00:01

I should say I'm not mad about the name Adam but its ok.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 15/10/2019 00:00

Oh forgot about Eli. That’s quite nice

Doyoureallyneedtoask · 15/10/2019 00:00

I like all of those except for Asher and Rufus.

I don't think I'd name my own child Paddy although I know two boys with the name and they are very cute kids which I think helps! I like Reuben too which would fit on that list.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 14/10/2019 23:59

I love
Patrick Not so much Paddy, but it’s okay.
Leo
I quite like Adam
Don’t like any of the others

gnushoes · 14/10/2019 23:53

Who cares? Which do you like of that lot?

100PercentThatBitch · 14/10/2019 23:37

Leo and Zachary of those

Chilledout11 · 14/10/2019 23:34

Asher and Rufus wouldn't be for me. Sorry. Zach and Leo are nice.

user1493494961 · 14/10/2019 23:32

Don't like Asher, prefer Elijah, the rest are all quite nice.

DramaAlpaca · 14/10/2019 23:31

I like Adam and Leo. Zachary is fine too. I do really like Patrick, but as I don't like Paddy it's middle name territory only for me.

Is there anything you like there, OP?

MrsNoMopp · 14/10/2019 23:29

I like Eli, Leo, Rufus and Zachary.

123Dancewithme · 14/10/2019 23:24

I like Adam and Patrick best
