Lewis (Louie?)
Noah
Jacob
Alfred ( Alfie)
Isaac
Theo

Or put them in order of your preference

Also are Isaac and Zachary too similar and likely to have the same nn?

Isaac and Zachary do sound too similar to me.

I don't like Lewis/Louie at all.

Alfie feels very trendy.

Theo would be my favourite from your list.

Isaac and Zachary are too similar.

Noah and Jacob from your list (was torn between both these names, was a bit gutted when DD arrived!)

Puddles1234 · 06/01/2014 22:55

Lewis no but LOUIS yes.
Theodore NN Theo, Teddy or Ted
Alfred is a good traditional name.
Noah
Isaac
Jacob

Zachary is a lovely name I prefer this too Isaac.

So is Lewis pronounced with the s and Louis is pronounced Louie?

I love Theo, do I have to be trendy to pull this one off cos I am anything but!!

Jacob.
I don't like the others. I really like jacob.

Weegiemum · 07/01/2014 00:08

I like Lewis best (NOT Louie!)

Must be Loo-issss.

Not keen on the others, Jacob is ok.

Lewis or Jacob

Puddles1234 · 07/01/2014 00:23

Louis is pronounced 'Louie' but in my opinion it should always be spelt Louis. Lewis is pronounced with the 's'.

I wouldn't worry about trendy names as trends come and go. It's your personal taste that counts.

MummyPig24 · 07/01/2014 12:44

Isaac
Theo
Noah
Jacob
Zachary
Lewis

Theo is my favourite by a long shot, it's cool without trying to be cool and I can imagine a Theo being a poet, an actor or even a sensible accountant.
