I really like Basil as well
Like Cal, but as nickname for Callum
Like all the others, Corey is my favourite but they are all nice.

Jake and Isaac are the only two I like.
Corey (slang) means something rude in London. Check out Collins dictionary, if you're worried.

I really like Basil. Hands down my favourite.
None of the others. Jake at a push.

Isaac or Elijah are lovely. Basil is horrific

Definitely not Basil! Still too many people young enough to automatically think either Fawlty or Brush.

Not Cal either, unless you want to use it as a nick name for Callum, which is nice.

I like Issac but I’d assume you’re religious, and Jake, but Jack is better.

I like really like Issac, Jake and Elijah in that order.

I like Cal, sometimes short for Caleb or Callum but I cant say it naturally in my accent, it sort of sounds like "Cow"

Not really keen on Basil or Cal, but quite like all the others

Elijah or Isaac.
Sorry, don't like the others.
