Yep 6 names! How do you rank them for boys names, which do you prefer and why?

Yes agreed re Xander! I think he’d be Alex or full Alexander

Finley - a bit wet
Liam - only if Irish
Thomas - safe, classic, inoffensive name. Tom
Charlie - safe etc if short for Charles
Oliver - safe, classic, inoffensive name. Not keen on Olly
Alexander - safe, classic, inoffensive name. Alex, Alec ok, don't like Xander

I'd pick Thomas or Charlie

Alexander. Lovely name.

I don’t mind Charles (Charlie is a nickname, not usually a given name). Oliver is well overdone and boring. Not keen on Alexander. Thomas is boring and dated. Liam and Finley aren’t my cup of tea at all.

Why not choose the one YOU love?

I like them all, they're all good "robust" classic names. I don't have any reason to dislike any of them although I prefer Liam the least. Think about potential nicknames and what initials would spell with your surname and any middle names.

They're all very popular top 100 names. I know several of each and don't find any particularly beautiful or memorable.
