I tend to go for quite popular names for boys, I have tried to like less popular names but it's not working!

Here's the list..

Freddie
Theo
Leo
Noah
Louis
Oscar
Finn

I really do like all of them! What do you think?

I know they're all extremely popular so I don't need to hear it :)

Finn - cute for a small boy and great for a man
Oscar - Im not wilde about it Freddie - too many Leo, Theo,Noah and Louis are all good Finns the best IMO

Theo is my favourite. Followed by Noah.

UnrequitedSkink · 11/09/2011 23:20

Leo's my favourite, would have used it myself but a close friend got there first. Love Noah too.

Avinalarf · 11/09/2011 23:21

I like Louis the best. It has the most classic, timeless feel.

OvO · 11/09/2011 23:21

I like them all. Lovely choices.

My favourite would be Louis.

Sl1nkyMalinki · 11/09/2011 23:25

Any apart from Freedie or Louis. No help at all, eh?!

Sl1nkyMalinki · 11/09/2011 23:25

Freedie.....oh fgs. *Freddie, obviously. Crap name, sorry....!

startail · 11/09/2011 23:29

Finn makes me think of fish and Freddie was my sisters gold fish-sorry
Don't like Oscar, but I do like the others.

I like Leo, Noah and Louis (as long as it is pronounced Louee rather than Lewis, which is just wrong!).

Louis my favourite of those three.

Indifferent about Theo and Oscar; really do not like Finn or Freddie - in fact actively dislike Freddie, sorry.

MatLeaveForever · 12/09/2011 09:19

Like Theo, Leo or Finn. Oscar makes me think of Oscar the grouch from Sesame Street!

tammytoby · 12/09/2011 13:31

I don't really like any, but if I had to choose, then Louis.

Leanbh2011 · 12/09/2011 13:43

Lovely names!! I like Oscar, Noah and Finn best :)

MelodyPond · 12/09/2011 20:58

Leo, Noah or Oscar are the best from your list, I think.....

Brilliant, thanks so far. Seems Freddie is the most disliked. The thing I worry about is if he can't say his Rs .. he will be Fweddie!

Freddie - very "cutsey" sounding ok for a child. Cannot imagine a decent looking man ever having this name.
Theo - ok
Leo - ok
Noah - getting better but very biblical.
Louis - nice
Oscar - nice
Finn - no, don't like

anewmotivatedme · 14/09/2011 10:50

I like them all.

LaTristesse · 14/09/2011 11:53

Round our way Theo would be 'Feo' which puts me off entirely! Otherwise I like them all except Freddie, and I think Finn is my favourite.

Rhubarbgarden · 14/09/2011 16:36

I like Freddie the best, then Leo.

TimothyClaypoleLover · 14/09/2011 16:41

I like Leo and Freddie. Freddie would become Fred as he grows up.

CrazyIrene · 14/09/2011 17:26

Leo is lovely :)

eatyourveg · 14/09/2011 17:29

Freddie Finn and Noah are all fab
