I love Gabriel. DH vetoed it for DS1 - that was 25 years ago and it was a very "out there" name back then.

I wanted to call DS2 Noah, but my mum was a primary school head teacher and said he would be teased remorseless with such an old fashioned name. Fast forward 10 years and every other little boy seemed to be called Noah.

I don't mind not getting to use Noah but I still have regret over not fighting for Gabriel.

I like Ben, never met a bad one and it feels 'lovely' or wholesome(?) to me.

Daniel. I only have a DD but if I had had a DS that’s what he’d be called.
