Jude or Isaac?

29 weeks and starting to think properly about names. We know we're having a little boy and have narrowed it down to two...but Jude is my favourite. Which do you prefer?

Jude.

Isaac is nice but a bit too religious for me although I do love Ike as a nickname.

Love Jude. Smile

Thank you for your comments so far. Pleased to see that I'm not losing my mind with my love of the name Jude!

Jude was a name we debated for DS - I still love the name, plus I've only ever met one other Jude!

Jude. It's gorgeous.

Isaac is dull.

I love Jude, I know a couple of Isaacs and I find it's not as nice when it's said out loud as it sounds in your head.

Jude is lovely.

I only know female Judes, so I would say Isaac.

CPtart · 05/05/2015 16:53

Isaac by a mile.

queentroutoftrouts · 05/05/2015 17:02

I prefer Isaac, it's not on your list but I love Isaiah.

MERLYPUSSEDOFF · 05/05/2015 17:03

Isaac.

But people will always spell it wrong.

I'm having a Jude too :-) I love it X

Carpinteria · 05/05/2015 20:45

I love them both.

Isaac is a bit more common, ime. I know 3 Isaacs and only one Jude.
