Please would you give me your feedback on these names? Or even suggest other names along the same lines? Thanks!

I love Reuben. Theo is exceptionally popular at the moment and that would but me off, but I like the name. Not keen on Tobias as I do not like Toby.

What about Elias? Its a nice Old Testament name like Reuben but more unusual. I love it. Lucas is also nice.

We really like Theo and have thought of it for our next child but I have issues with it meaning "God"!

Tobias would definitely have to go to a private school...

I know quite a few Reubens which I quite like but wouldn't choose. Elliot is lovely :)

Emsies - if you used Theodore then it's 'gift from God' which is rather a lovely meaning I think (but then I'm biased being Christian and the mother of a Theodore!)

Christian too - and would love to shorten it to Theo as a nickname but the thought of calling out "God, God" across a playground/ supermarket is getting to me! LOve the name though :)

Elijah

I like Theo. I don't fancy Miles or Reuben.

I like Tobias, but I like Tobian better. I like Toby too.

Of the other names mentioned I like:
Corin
Lucas
Caleb

Personally only like Tobius out of that lot, but I like that one a lot!! xx

Oh I do like Miles. Put it back on the list!

IvyAndGold · 23/06/2011 12:06

oh i love all those name, DP went and vetoed them all! Angry tobias is my favourite, but will most likely get shortened to toby at school etc.

Tobin?
