Harry or Frank

Just that really. 2 weeks to go so at crunch time and we can't decide between these two!
Middle name will be Douglas and surname is very non-offensive 2 syllable name that would go with either.

So which would you choose and why?

Also to say though I am generally a big fan of longer more formal name on BC in this instance I really don't like Henry or Frances so please don't suggest these names as alternatives! Have considered Harrison and Franklin on BC but not sure how these surname names will date/not sure if feels a bit try hard?

I like Douglas.

Middle names are an unnecessary pain in the arse anyway. Just extra shit to fill out on forms.

I find harry and Frank to be elderly man names tbh.

I'd go for Frank

Harry is inoffensive but very popular.
I don’t like Frank, Francis or Franklin, sorry.
Harry out of the 2 .

Can’t you use Douglas? That is fabulous. I really dislike both Harry and Frank. They’re bland and forgettable. Frances is a girl’s name, though. At a push, I’d go for Frank.

Harry.
Don't like Frank. Can't imagine a young person called it.
