I have been planning Elijah Blake but I'm having last minute swerve to Isaac Blake ! Thoughts?

I like both. Elijah flows better with Blake, but you don't often say first and middle names together anyway, so I am not sure that it matters. Both have lovely nn's too (Ike and Eli).
I like both - Isaac Elijah?

Elijah.

Both are lovely.

Both were on our list too :). I think that Elijah has the edge over Isaac for me.

I like both but prefer Elijah

Isaac for me

I think I'd use Blake as the first name, it's lovely and you don't hear it as much as Elijah or Issac. They're both lovely names as well though. My personal fave is Isaac.

I think Isaac Elijah is nicer than Isaac Blake though (too many K's)

Isaac. Definitely.

Ike the Tyke.

Elijah

I've got an Isaac, and I think you should go with Elijah. There are just too many little Isaacs around - Elijah has more of a 'wow' factor. I regret going with Isaac sometimes. Sad

Elijah. Less used than Isaac (which is also a lovely name)

Isaac. I have an Isaac and he is the only one I know in our area. Smile

Love both of them. Isaac was on our list for DTs. DD1 is Elizabeth nn Eliza otherwise Elijah would have been on list also. So with that in mind please use Elijah for me because even if we decide to have more DC I cant use itSad.

Both are gorgeous names. There are actually LOADS of Elijahs round here, but DS is the only Isaac I know. Elijah was also on our list but glad we went with Isaac because of that. Having said that Elijah Blake does sound better than Isaac Blake!
