I love Benedict with nn Ned, not so keen on inevitable Ben, but at least they’d have the option. Don’t like Judah although I do like Jude, same with Tobias/Toby. Zachary/Zach is nice.

Benedict

Benedict. Great name, underused. Not keen on the others.

FreshHorizons · 02/06/2022 06:28

Definitely not Judah but any of the others.

Tobias

Not Judah.
I like Tobias, but hate Toby. Reminds me of a jug.
I think Zachary is dated.
I love Benedict. I met twins once, Ben and Joe. Their full names were Benedict and Joachim.

Tobias

Zachary and Benedict are nice.

Don't like Judah (too close sounding to Judas for me) but I do like Jonah.

Dislike Tobias (and Toby).

meltypuff · 30/05/2022 08:29

Zachary!

KirstenBlest · 30/05/2022 08:28

Tobias is ok. Like Toby
Benedict is ok. Ben is nice but prefer Benjamin
Zachary is nice but very popular. Like Zac
Don't like Judah or Jude

AnuSTart · 30/05/2022 07:25

Judah or Tobias.

Zachary is ok if a little overdone.
Benedict just reminds me of BCumberbatch who is a deeply pretentious Eton dude so it puts me off.

Juancornetto · 30/05/2022 07:21

Tobias is lovely, I really like names with Os in them

MagicTurtle · 30/05/2022 07:20

Tobias nickname Toby

RuthW · 30/05/2022 07:19

Benedict

Rainbowqueeen · 30/05/2022 00:29

Benedict.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 30/05/2022 00:26

Benedict - choice of nn's (Ben or Ned), fairly uncommon and quite classy sounding imo. Second (close) choice would be Tobias, 3rd Zachary. Sorry don't like Judah at all - too close to Judas.
