Drake, much nicer name.

Whatever you do, don't name the poor little thing Drake. Its American and the worst if American at that. Bloody awful. Love Rui.

Silas David Rui but prefer Rui over Silas.

Best to go with whatever name YOU love as our tastes are all different. Middle names are rarely used so again, go with whichever means more to you.

Both Silas and Drake are lovely and your ds will make either one his own.

Silas and Drake to me are both awful. I always imagine a Silas to be a big stripping old Farmer type and Drake is just such a dark and cold sounding name.

I love your other choices though.

Lol stropping not stripping damn auto correct!

Silas David Rui Matthews gets my vote!

David Rui would be lovely in just that combo.

Silas is hideous and Drake is a bit naff, imho.
