Am having serious trouble picking a name for jnr who will be here shortly:-

Please give me your comments on the following, want the name to be distinct without being too wacky

Corbin
Ferdie
Leon
Marlon
Teague

Are they all a bit tooo out there??

Leon is okay and Ferdie is not too bad. I think the others are a bit 'unusual'.

Ferdie is nice, short for Ferdinand (otherwise just another Freddie-a-like). Regal full name and it's distinctive but quite cute too.

Leon not my cup of tea but miles better than Corbin, Marlon and, esoecially, Teague.

Leon and Corin are okay, personally dont like the others.

Ferdie - prefer Freddie
Marlon - prefer Mark
Teague - prefer Tim

What everyone else says! Teague looks like some kind of medical condition "It's not looking good to me, there's milaena, teague and oedema".

I think Leon is OK, sorry but I'm not keen on the others.

How about

Frederick/Freddie
Charles/Charlie
Leopold/Leo
Rufus
Max
Silas
Martin
Theo

Leon os great. Marlon is OK

What about:

Levi
Asa
Rafael

Don't like the others

Corbin-ok
Ferdie- I think of the character from "this life", plus it's a nn
Leon- bit of a 'dodgy geezer' name imo
Marlon- the fish and an Emmerdale character
Teague- not sure how to pronounce, will be forever spelling it
