I quite like Hadrian.

Heath makes me think more of a girl because it seems like a shortened version of Heather, but maybe that's just me.

Ihatepeas · 12/11/2013 21:25

Love Heath. Not keen on the others.

CarryOnDancing · 12/11/2013 23:47

Always Heath! There aren't enough. I love Heath, like Hadrian and hate Kyle.

Home and Away fan? Grin

Heath is lovely, the others are awful.

MrsBungleScare · 13/11/2013 00:01

Heath.

phoolani · 13/11/2013 00:06

Kyle - makes me think of vampires, dunno why. Hadrian is pretty awesome. Underwhelmed by Heath.

Mutteroo · 13/11/2013 00:18

Heath sounds good as does Hadrian. Not keen on Kyle

Spaghettinetti · 13/11/2013 07:56

Heath reminds me of Heath Ledger, Kyle reminds me of Southpark...They both scream 'American' at me and are a bit 'trendy' in my mind. I much prefer Hadrian, which makes me think of the (usually seen as good) Roman Emperor. All the best with your decision :-)

MoonHare · 13/11/2013 11:45

Interesting selection of options!

Of the 3 I'd choose Heath though as someone else said it does feel a bit American.

Really dislike Kyle.

Hadrian would be an unusual choice, might spend his whole life saying "No, HHHHadrian not Adrian!"

squoosh · 13/11/2013 13:53

I love Heath.

Not crazy about Kyle.

I'd imagine someone called Hadrian to look and sound like Brian Blessed.

halecromp · 13/11/2013 14:16

Really like Kyle, don't mind Heath, not keen on Hadrian at all

floatyflo · 13/11/2013 20:16

I'm sorry, I'm not keen on any of them!

BelleOfTheBorstal · 13/11/2013 20:18

Hadrian is a most excellent choice, followed, but not closely by Heath.

curlew · 13/11/2013 20:21

Or you could actually give the poor child a name?

Raddy · 13/11/2013 20:22

Hadrian sounds like Adrian, not a good thing.

Kyle I think is one of those names.

Heath, I like.

PenguinsDontEatPancakes · 13/11/2013 22:10

They aren't my personal taste, but from that list definitely Heath. It could sound pretty cool with a family/traditional middle name too - Heath William or something has a ring to it.

I am probably very shallow and predictable, but when I hear 'Hadrian' I mentally add 'Wall'.

Kyle. Just not as keen as Heath. Can't really explain it except that I don't like the sound of the word as much.

sleepingbeautiful · 14/11/2013 00:20

I love Heath. It was in our top 3.
2) Hadrian.
3) Kyle (I used to like but in recent years I think it's become the kind of name the Rooneys might pick for kid #3).

Theonlyoneiknow · 15/11/2013 08:38

I like Kyle. It is a strong Scottish name meaning straight of water.

(Trying not to take notice of all the anti Kyle comments as it is DS'S name)

killpeppa · 15/11/2013 08:39

aw heath was in my top 3Grin

babyfedleaning · 15/11/2013 17:05

Kyyyyyyyyyolllllllllle! Makes me think of south park. Sorry

nicky2512 · 15/11/2013 17:06

Love Kyle (I have one).

SirChenjin · 15/11/2013 17:08

Heath at a push - not so keen on the other 2. Hadrian is too much like the wall or Adrian (which is a name that should stay in the 70s imo).

mummylin2495 · 15/11/2013 17:16

Kyle

lljkk · 15/11/2013 17:32

I like Heath. Hadrian almost makes me cringe. Don't care about Kyle.
