Thoughts on William Joseph

[LindtReindeerLover]

What are your thoughts on this? We decided on this name for DS1 (due April) last night whilst I couldn't sleep, we were previously going for Joe but I wasn't overly struck with it. Both names are family names from our grandparents.

Do you think it is good / bad / average / lovely / boring / common...

My friend has just had a baby. His name is Joseph William

I have a William - I love it and think Joseph goes really well.

A great name. Won't be embarrassed. I like Joseph as a middle name.

Lovely!

Well, I love Joseph/Joe, so think you should have the names the other way round.

Either way is fine.

My DS middle name is William. Joseph is ok, pretty harmless but don't like Jo.
Both fairly common but not always a bad thing IMO!

I like it, I'd shorten it to Billy-Joe

I have a nephew Joseph. He is always called Joseph. It's a lovely name, really classic. Both William and Joseph are.

Dd1 was going to be William Joseph
Dd2 we'd changed to Joseph William

Love both versions.

aww thanks for all your lovely responses, and yes ILoveSaladReallyIDo to Billy Joe!

Love it! I would consider it either way around, but particularly William Joseph.
