William, Wilfred or George?

We were set on George but not sure we could put up with the comments about the royal baby. Would just get boring and also George may suddenly become even more common and become a Harry/Jack equivalent. We like Wilfred as it's good for all ages and he can be will, Fred, Freddie etc when he's older if he wants. But would William be safer??

I prefer Wilf of the three. But I would probably stay safe, and go with George if he were mine!

All lovely, but like William most of all.

William is the best IMO.

We have a Wilfred George. He's Wilf most of the time, but still often Wilfred. We've had lots of lovely comments about his name and never regretted it.

I love Wilfred! I also like Wilric (a Fresian name) but couldn't use either as DS has William as a middle name after his DGF.
