I like it too. I forgot to say that some people will think he's Joe.

Look at darkgreener and ONS for the stats, if popularity is an issue.

Try the name with the surname, without a middle name.
Leo Owens, Joel Cole and Jenson Benson might not be the best combinations.

I know a gorgeous 2 year old Joel and I think it's a great name.

Joel is ok but will get said as Jole, Jo-ul and Jo-elle.
Jenson will get called Jens, and I think it's too linked to an age-group.
Leo is nice but popular.
