I prefer Alexander because I prefer the shortenings, but it's very close! I like both very much.

Other names I think fit the classic-but-not-too-plain theme would include Charles, Edward, Richard, Sebastian, Timothy.

I like both of those, what about Henry, Theodore or James or Thomas?

Alexander is my preference, although nowt wrong with William.

Edward, James, Thomas, Peter, Philip
Felix is nice too :)

Alexander. But I have an Alex so I'm biased. Wink

Hi. I have both an Alexander and a Willam....lovely names, you have great taste in names ! I also really like Arthur and Edward. Do like George but the royal connection put me off a little though shouldn't really I know.
