Not so keen on Lucan and Roman. Others are good.

Rosencrantz · 19/01/2014 16:07

Don't like roman.

I hate Lucan! Much prefer Lucien.

Fave is Hugo.

LynetteScavo · 19/01/2014 16:15

Love Hugo

Hate Lucan

BabyMummy29 · 19/01/2014 16:17

Not keen on Lucan or Roman.

Gabriel and Elliot are fine, but Hugo makes me think of upper-class twits

CPtart · 19/01/2014 16:18

Like Gabriel. None of the others.

MyNameIsSuz · 19/01/2014 16:25

I don't like Gabriel, I think it sounds wet, but the others are all nice. Elliot is my favourite, then Roman.

MomentForLife · 19/01/2014 16:27

Love Gabriel and Roman. Rest are ok but not my cup of tea.

BikeRunSki · 19/01/2014 16:34

Not keen on LucAn or Roman, but like the others. Gabriel was a possibility if dd had been a boy.

LightsPlease · 19/01/2014 16:35

Love roman. Hugo is terrible.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 19/01/2014 16:36

Like Gabriel. Hate Lucan but love Luke/Lucas and like Lucien. really don't like Roman or Hugo (a go go).

Theonlyoneiknow · 19/01/2014 17:18

Really like Gabriel, not keen on the others

AnAdventureInCakeAndWine · 19/01/2014 17:20

I prefer Lorcan to Lucan, possibly because Lucan has associations of Lord Lucan. I like the others.

ButICantaloupe · 19/01/2014 17:23

Love Hugo, DH has vetoed it or I would use it in a heartbeat.

Would like to use Gabriel, but I think it's quite a feminine name.

Other are ok, inoffensive.

Rhubarbgarden · 19/01/2014 18:05

I like Gabriel and Hugo. Lucan is terrible.

HyvaPaiva · 19/01/2014 18:08

Lucan - Hate. Too 'Lord Lucan'. Is it actually a name? Lucien is nice.
Elliot - Ok
Gabriel - Don't like
Hugo - Love
Roman - Ok

Saharap2 · 19/01/2014 18:48

I love Elliot and it is by far the best of your list! I don't like Lucan at all. The rest are all ok, quite nice.

Leeds2 · 19/01/2014 18:54

Fave is Roman. Dislike Elliot.

Misspilly88 · 20/01/2014 20:57

Hugo then Gabriel. Know a Gabriel nn gabe

Algorithm · 20/01/2014 21:42

I like Elliot and Hugo (not sure if I prefer Elliott though?), not hugely keen on Gabriel (amount of 'LOL let's call him Gay Gabe' I heard when I was younger...), Lucan I do not like - I think Lucifer? What about Lucas or Luca - even Lucien? Roman I wouldn't dream of as I come from a Roman village and it would be quite the joke around here if I decided to call my son Roman but if you're from a quaint Tudor village or from central London I'd be impartial to it.

Mellowandfruitful · 20/01/2014 21:49

Elliot is my favourite - stick to the one 't' version. Like Saharap the others are a way behind for me but second choice would be Gabriel; Roman is OK.
