Which do you prefer?
Seb would be registered as Sebastian but we’d call him Seb x

I really like Sebastian and Seb. And Gabriel. Not helpful but both lovely names.

Nadal · 29/10/2022 22:34

I like Seb. My son has a friend called Sebi

Soproudoflionesses · 29/10/2022 22:27

Gabriel nn Gabe is a favourite of mine. Don't mind Sebastian, but there are lots of them around here!

EstellaRijnveld · 29/10/2022 22:07

Sebastian because Gabriel is very popular now so Sebastian stands out more.

Luredbyapomegranate · 29/10/2022 18:31

Gabriel nn Gabe, but Sebastian is nice too

BatsAtHome · 27/10/2022 20:22

Gabriel is a beautiful name and Gabe is a lovely nn. I like them both though.

Newuser82 · 27/10/2022 20:09

I love Gabriel!

Gabriel

I love them both! If DD had been a DS, I genuinely don’t know how I’d have chosen between these two names!

JamSandle · 27/10/2022 19:50

Gabriel

Malfi · 27/10/2022 19:46

Gabriel by miles. Seb is particularly not nice.

ChillysWaterBottle · 27/10/2022 19:08

Like them both but prefer Gabriel, lovely name

HoHoHowMuch · 27/10/2022 19:07

I love them both, but not the shorter versions.

yoshiblue · 27/10/2022 17:11

Gabriel! Seb/Sebastian is everywhere.

sopeas · 27/10/2022 16:34

Sebastian!

Dassams · 27/10/2022 15:46

Gabriel is a lovely name. Travels well too.

I don't like Seb at all. It doesn't sound like a 'name' to me, more of a sound.

Pieceofpurplesky · 27/10/2022 14:07

My three favourite boy's names are Seb, Gabe and Zach

mumonthehill · 27/10/2022 14:05

I have a Gabriel so obviously biased! But I do like Sebastian as well.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 27/10/2022 14:00

Gabriel.
