david is dh's name

james is the name of an ex

felix too close to dd's name

christopher ... don't really like it

long, convoluted double-barrelled surname

think needs to be 1-2 syllables max

OP posts:
controlfreakythecontrolfreak · 30/03/2009 23:41

zephaniah is great..

z.... david
z.... james
z.... christopher
z.... felix

depends a bit on how long / simple surname is?

I love Zander, but dh won't have it. Says it reminds him of Sander, which reminds him of the floorboards which he still hasn't done.

Zephaniah seems to be a clear winner!!

Love Zeph, Zac is very common.If we're on Z's, Zander is a personal fave of mine.

LaDiDaDi · 30/03/2009 23:31

Zephaniah, definitely.

Oh, it's got to be Zephaniah

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Zephaniah

literature, veganism ... all of the things I hold dear.

Stumped on a middle name though. Benjamin might be pushing it a wee bit.

I like Zeb & Zachary also.

jellybeans · 30/03/2009 14:34

I like Zeph and Zeb and Zachary. Not keen on others.

Zephaniah, then Zachary. Don't like Zeb sorry.
Zeph my clear fave. Isn't there a train on Chuggington called Zephy?

you think you need to be cool for these names, really?

[pondering face]

DD is called Phoenix and DS is called Cassian - are they dangerous names?

it's such a bloody minefield.

MrsM. you never showed me your 4 dresses, was dying to see.

OP posts:
MrsMattie · 30/03/2009 13:26

None of them, really. Sorry. I love biblical names, but I think Zachary/Zachariah are nice (although done to death) and all the others just aren't as nice.

BonsoirAnna · 30/03/2009 13:25

Dangerous names unless you can guarantee your DS is going to grow up to be übercool.
