We've narrowed our names down to the ones below but would love to hear others' opinions. We have a three syllable Irish surname beginning with D.

Gabe/Gabriel ( favourite)
Harris ( love this but I know there are loads of boys names Harry)
Rory ( love but will sound v Irish with surname)
Kellan ( husband loves, I worry people might hear 'Kevin')
Leo (a favourite)
Alex
Eric ( we loved Erica for a girl but not sure if Eric will have old man connotations)

Love Gabe and Rory. Tbh they are all nice names x

Love Gabriel, Eric had Harris

I think if you're concerned about popularity then obviously avoid Rory as it's rocketed in the last few years. Avoid Leo too

@creamcheeseon that's great that you love them all!

It's nice to see that people like Gabriel, it's not a common name in my area.

I like Eric, Alex and Harris on your list. Harris is a different name to Harry and the ones I know don't get called Harry as a nn. I don't mind Rory but i prefer the Irish or Scottish spellings and pronunciation.

I love Gabriel, it's my DS middle name.
