Jake or Finn?

Would likely be Jacob or Finlay on birth certs but I'm really more interested in opinions of the shortened versions.

Husband also likes Raffy (Rafael) though I'm not sure?

Any thoughts?

I actually like Rafael/Raffy best but out of Jake or Finn I'd definitely pick Finn.

I like both, but I'm in Scotland where 'a Jakey' is slag for a chav, which would put me off using Jake although I do think it's a nice name.

I like Rafael but I'm not keen on Raffy as a nn.

Raffy is awful!

Finn

Are you fans of adventure time?!

Finn

Was going to say the same Ohbaby! Maybe Marceline for a girl?

Jake.
I've also heard of a Rafferty with I thought was rather dashing.
Finn is nice too though..
Gabriel was on our list had DD been a boy.

Marceline is a fab name!
