Help me name DS

DS has arrived, we are undecided on two names they give the same nickname but to me have a totally different feel.
I prefer the classic Francis and DP prefers Franklin, we are calling DS Frankie whilst young and assume Frank as he grows
Please help us to decide which name for the BC as we are registering at 10am tomorrow morning

Francis

Francis or just Frank. Franklin is a bit too american.

As an adult much better than Frank!

Francis definitely

Francis - a classic name, works for any age.

Franklin is a surname, name doesn’t have a nice sound, definite no from me.
