Just to add he was born on ladies day which is the 17th Century new years day so old names were the only option .. haha!

I would spell it Reuben and it's a nice first name. DD1 was going to be Reuben if she had ben a boy. The middle names are little bit much though I think. Perhaps lose one of the E names?

Put in Hezekiah - just for me eh? It was my Great Uncle's name and I wanted it for the middle name of our youngest son. But my DP wanted his middle name instead. I still wish.... Might have another kid and if it's a boy .....

Deifinitely prefer Reuben to Ruben. Quite a popular name round here.

Definitely Blush

i love hezekiah , sorry been wrapped in nappies and feeds ... Ruben is an anagram of our surname so we took out the e basically and both are good spellings.
We actually do 17th/18th century re-enactment (weirdo's) so we chose from a list of 17th century names.
he has an extra one on the Birth Cert that begins with P so it spells peter backwards .. but only myself and hubby know that one .. again a puritan name.
