Just wanted to canvass opinions for boy names please. Our short list is down to two:
Philip and Isaac
Any opinions please?!

Philip will eventually get shortened to Phil which to me is a very middle ahead bloke type name.

Isaac may get shortened to Zac which I'm not keen on either.

Let's go for Philip, there'll be less of them around and maybe it's due a resurgence! Smile

Middle aged - not middle ahead!

We like both (unhelpful), both classic names that would suit both a boy or a man.

I like both. If I must I'd go for Phil.

MummyBurrows · 10/05/2013 20:33

I'd vote Phillip,just because Isaac is rather popular at the moment...

There is nothing wrong with Isaac but I'd go for Philip.

Little Pip or Pipkin - then proper Philip

Isaac

Isaac.

Layl77 · 10/05/2013 20:54

Isaac, Philip sounds middle aged to me too

Mellymog · 11/05/2013 13:21

I like Philip

Secondme · 11/05/2013 13:47

Phillip, nn Pip (like my brother in law) and then he can be Phillip later. Grin

I like Philip, it's an underused classic. I do know of one baby Philip so maybe its on its way back!
