Jude is my favourite but I quite like Kit too. Also Kit is less popular than Jude so it has that in its favour.

Personally I'd cross Sonny off the list.

Not keen on any of them. At a push Kit but I know of a lot of Kits and Judes in London area - a little bit too try hard and pretentious for me, but each to their own.

Kit

DitzyDonkey · 10/08/2014 13:58

"Try hard and pretentious" yep that's me Grin Wink

I'm in Ireland so none of the above are popular over here.

Squoosh can I ask why I should cross Sonny off the list? I think it may be quite marmite!

Sonny is the only one I like!

IvyBeagle · 10/08/2014 15:04

Kit

DramaAlpaca · 10/08/2014 16:07

Kit or Jude.

Not Sonny.

ralinax294 · 10/08/2014 16:27

Jude.

turdfairynomore · 10/08/2014 16:28

Sonny

Sophronia · 10/08/2014 16:50

Jude goes better with Eli but I prefer Kit and Sonny.

SlinkyB · 10/08/2014 17:10

I love them all! And have an Elijah.

Sorry not helpful!

Leeds2 · 10/08/2014 17:12

Sonny.

Don't like Jude at all.

Bowlersarm · 10/08/2014 17:15

Kit is lovely

Possibly Jude.

I hate Sonny.

BigfootFiles · 10/08/2014 17:19

Sonny just sounds like you couldn't be bothered thinking of a name. You wouldn't call your daughter "Daughtery" would you?

Kit as short for Christopher? All the Kits I know are girls, short for Katherine/Kitty.

I'd go for Jude.

pommedeterre · 10/08/2014 17:24

Aren't those all Sophie Ellis bexter's kids names?

AdorableAbbie · 10/08/2014 18:33

I go for Kit.

Vajazzler · 10/08/2014 18:35

Sophie EB's kids are Sonny Kit and Ray.

I think Jude goes better with Eli.

DitzyDonkey · 10/08/2014 20:28

It would be really great if you could all just agree on the same name Grin Wink

Thanks for the comments so far!

Does this help?

Okay, that last one is tenuous, I admit. Wink

DitzyDonkey · 10/08/2014 22:14

BigFootFiles why have i not known about First Aid Kit before now, they are BRILLIANT. Yes the link is tenuous but (whispers) is this a sign????

I think you have fantastic taste. Kit was my choice for DS2, sadly DH got his way, Jude was my choice for DD had she been DS3. My best friend from school has a Sonny and he is adorable and really suits his name. Can't go wrong with any of them. Hard to choose but I think Jude still had it for me - I really love that name and think it goes very well with Eli.

Kit and Jude are on my list but think Kit is what we're going for so that gets my vote. Goes well with Elijah.
Sonny isn't as classic as the others and it makes me think 'Sonny Jim'.

omri · 10/08/2014 22:52

Kit is my favourite!! Dd(3mo) was going to be Kit if she'd been a boy :) and I'm in Ireland too!!
Jude a v close 2nd. Really like it.

Great names op!!

serendipity16 · 11/08/2014 13:18

I love Sonny, but thats because i have a Sonny :)
Never had any negative comments in RL about his name & it really does suit him.

Not keen on Jude, Kit is ok although i'd prefer to use Kitty for a girl :)
