Down to our final two choices with baby arriving next week.

Tommy or Aksel?

Of those two, Tommy for definite! I’d use Thomas or Tom on the birth certificate though.

I think unless you’re from a country that spells is aksel people will assume you’re trying too hard to be unique with that spelling. They’re very different names. I’d go Thomas out of the two, but not Tommy on the BC. I think axel will date.

Not a fan of Axel anyway but that spelling is awful.

Tommy, but with Thomas on his birth cert.
