Sorry...me again

Apparently Jonathan nn Jonty is too ordinary for my DH ...I prefer the word classic. ..and he should have a strong more unusual but not daft name. This is a direct quote. I asked like what and he suggested Flint. Not happening. Please help x

Fergus

Finn

Toby

Donovan has a very similar sound and rhythm to Jonathan. It's funny how you can love one and hate the other. Mind you, I think Jonty is a dreadful nn so could that be what has put him off? I have a cousin named Jonathan and he's always been Joe for short.

There's also not a huge leap between Donovan and Duncan. What is it that you don't like?

I adore the name Blake, please use it...I never will ??

Rory is the best out of all those names, I love it

I'm just intrigued by their different reactions to what are quite similar names. If we can nail down what it is that puts them off, it might help.
