Daniel.

Jude will age, I think. And every time I hear Jude, I get "Nah nah nah na-na-na-nah, na-na-na-nah, Hey Jude" stuck in my bloody head, so I dislike it on principle Grin

Which would you prefer his mates to sing at him whilst pissed "Hey Jude" or "Danny Boy" cos I know a Jude and a Daniel and this is what happens at the end of every saturday night!

AngryPixie · 12/08/2010 21:05

JUDE - no contest!

pinkteddy · 12/08/2010 21:08

Daniel - I've always liked the name.

SrStanislaus · 12/08/2010 21:13

I wanted to say Jude because of the coolness factor but have to agree that maybe it will be the 'Gary' of future years. Also in my interpretation of your surname (gone with common Irish and English names with those initials) Daniel /Danny sounds a lot better.

Jude

Daniel.

I like all the variations of Dan or Danny. It is good for a child and a man.

I think Jude is a bit girl tbh and very trendy, so will be a bit like Gary, Dave and Steve used to be...

lyns2 · 12/08/2010 23:10

daniel
jude 2 trendy n will sound out of date in 10 years time. My oh wanted to call our 3rd son daniel but refused because although i love the name dnt like the abbreviation danny(sorry ;(). so we compromised on dominic daniel.
Think about it v carefully tho as am slightly regretting naming our daughter phoebe. luv the name but is she going to like it when older? hmm

logi · 12/08/2010 23:14

definately Jude ....and it goes well with Ellis

lola0109 · 12/08/2010 23:19
