Oliver and Ben are my favourites.

Why Josef with an 'f'? If it is linked to your cultural heritage, fine. Otherwise it looks 'try hard' and Joseph is better.

I like Ben and Joseph. Not keen on Kaden or Kyle. Every other baby around here is called Ethan, not sure if that would bother you or not.

I dont really like it the original way and prefer if with the F at the end, of course the only problem is will people spell it the normal way which i guess they will.

Ethan - OK

Kaden - not keen

Josef - like

Ben - like but only as nickname

Oliver - like

Kyle - OK if you have connection with place such as Kyle of Lochalsh!

Kaden - totally hate it, sorry, slightly improved by Caiden spelling.

Josef - would personally use the ph spelling

Ben - nice, but ordinary

Oliver - nice

Kyle - okay, but slightly chavvy

Are you looking for any other suggestions, or just comments on your shortlist?
