Liam or Jake

I like Eden for a boy actually but tbh if I saw it listed may assume it was a girl.

and Bertie are my 2 best ones.

Bohdi sounds too much like Brodie or how ever you spell it, the american boys name. Broadie ??

mathanxiety · 21/12/2009 18:17

Liam and Finn. None of the others, especially Bohdi.

Liam - no
Zac - effron every 16 pregnant girl will pick that
Finn - loads of finns
Jake - meh
Eden - what now? are you a roaring hippy?
Carson - are you american - this is appaulling
Bohdi (Bow-dee) - only if you live in brighton
Bertie - its like a parrotts name or something.

meggymegmegs · 21/12/2009 16:57

Bertie, Jake or Finn for me.

AnathemaDevice · 21/12/2009 16:54

Liam and Finn. I wanted Liam for DS but it didn't work with our surname.
Good luck!

I also thought that Eden was a girl's name.

Like Bertie (but not so keen on Albert). Like Jake and Finn and Zac, but like Bertie I tend to think of them as nns for Jacob, Fintan and Zachary. Not keen on Liam or Bodhi or Carson (surname),

boodleboot · 21/12/2009 14:20

Bodhi is fab. Liam is ok too....don't like any of the others....Eden is a girls name non?

first1 · 21/12/2009 14:20

Definitely definitely Zac

birdofthenorth · 21/12/2009 14:14

Zac and Finn

gettingtogrips · 21/12/2009 14:06

Zac and Finn are both lovely. Jake is very popular at the moment.

displayuntiltwelfthnight · 21/12/2009 14:02

I know it's a different spelling but Bodhi makes me think of the dealer, Bodie, in The Wire.sorry!
Finn and Zac would be my two
Bertie nice too as long as surname won't lend itself to any jolly hockeysticks Bertie Wooster type mirth in future

Pineapplechunks · 21/12/2009 14:00

Finn or Jake.

thrifty · 21/12/2009 13:59

Jake and Liam (am biased though as I have a Jake)

hohohojollster · 21/12/2009 13:44

Finn and Liam

Jake and Bertie ok.... others not so keen

Pinner35 · 21/12/2009 13:41
