I love Zachary (I have one! He is always Zachary never Zac), also love Gabriel, Xavier and Atticus -though don't think we could get away with it so would never use it!

I've always really liked James,lovely classic name great with many surnames and suits all ages.Didn't use it though as someone else in family got there first.
And also, Johnny & Rufus Grin

Cole is my fav which is why DS is called it :) If you want a 'proper' name on the birth cert it comes from Nicholas, i didn't use Nicholas because some of my older family members said they could call him Nicholas or Nick.

The only down side is people commenting on how it's one of these 'new names' when actually it can be dated back to the middle ages! There are also a couple of Coles in the cow boy films.

Because they've never been fashionable, so they won't date. They're fairly classless too.
