Saif - pronounced like the word safe

Basil - pronounced like bazel but with a soft “s” not like the herb

Middle and last initials will be A.M.

Sorry but no

Do they mean something? Or are they names you've made up because you like the sound?

Sorry I dislike them all. I don't even understand what you mean by Basil with a soft S.

Laith is the only one I got right pronouncing so that would be the “easiest” for your future DS. Quite nice sounding too.

I love Laith. Think Basil with a soft S would be an uphill battle where I am, maybe different where you are.

Not Basil if it’s not pronounced like the herb, he’ll be sick of correcting people.
I like Saif.
