noddyholder · 11/12/2010 12:06

theagedparent · 11/12/2010 12:14

Dylan

DuelingFanio · 11/12/2010 12:16

Dylan and Maddoc

darleneconnor · 11/12/2010 12:23

You know someone's going to use the 'c' word dont you?

Anyway...

Jay - is a nn, is there a loonger version you could use on the bc? Also, as a bird, it's maybe a bit girlie for a boy?
Caelen, of the moment and has multiple spellings, but I like how it sounds
Maddoc- 'mad'= insane
Dylan- fine
Carson people might think you're American

HelenaRose · 11/12/2010 12:24

Jay - like it
Caelen - really like
Maddoc - not keen
Dylan - love it
Carson - I think there's an American talkshow host with this name

tummytickler · 11/12/2010 12:44

I like Dylan, maybe Maddoc. I do not like the others though.

Jaykake · 11/12/2010 12:58

Are they a bit Chav?

I think my bf made Maddoc up but we like the sound of it. Carson is popular in America yes.
Dylan is the safest I know but is it a bit boring? Is it better to take the risk?

Dylan. Not keen on any of the others. Jay is ok I suppose but it sounds like a nickname, not a proper name.

ShoppingDays · 11/12/2010 18:16

Dylan

BelligerentGhoul · 11/12/2010 18:18

Dylan

Really don't like Carson.

Hassledge · 11/12/2010 18:18

Dylan by a country mile. Although I do know a very nice Jay.

MelinaM · 11/12/2010 20:28

I think Dylan is the best from your list.
I do know a little boy names Jay, he's Jay Liam, personally I think it's a bit of a non name!!!
Carson= City (LA) or Daly (host)
Caelen= not sure what this is!
Maddoc -sounds unfinished, how about Maddox instead?
Good luck! x

Jaykake · 11/12/2010 23:05

Looks like Dylan is the outright winner.

Any more opinions?

Dylan, definatly

Maddox is Angelina Jolie's son- sounds like you're a fan MelinaM

Edmundo · 12/12/2010 20:36

Dylan.

The others are not good.

AllieW · 12/12/2010 20:54

Dylan. I'm a Philistine and tend to prefer the Anglicized pronunciation to the Welsh one, unfortunately.

JustDoMyLippyThenWeWillGo · 12/12/2010 20:56

I like Jay: good enough for Gatsby, def not chav Grin

spler · 12/12/2010 21:17

Jay
