The Final Four!! (boy names)

[iloveMrBloom]

Hello lovely mumsnetters,

Please help us by voting for your favourite! DS1 is due this month and DH and I can't choose between these four names. We'll probably go with the majority vote as we just can't separate them. Thank you!!!

Thomas Henry W......
Matthew Joseph W......
Alexander James W......
Joseph Matthew W......

Good point about the shortenings/nicknames, thanks!

I like Tom, but as Thomas is only two syllables I'll probably refer to him by his full name most of the time. If he becomes Tom later then that's fine.

I can't see Matt suiting a baby so I'd probably go for Matty or Huey when he's small, if I shorten at all - it's a long name written down but again only two syllables. I don't mind him becoming Matt later.

The other two are trickier because I'm not massively keen on Alex or Joe. I knew a very wet Alex as a child which has put me off! I'm not that keen on any other obvious nicknames - that might rule Alexander out then. I LOVE the full name but realistically it is a bit of a mouthful for daily use.

Joseph would probably be Joey as a baby/child but guess he'd become Joe later which I don't really like.

Guess it's between Thomas and Matthew then!!

Ooh glad I've made a difference and hopefully helped

Of those two I'd pick Thomas/Tom.

I like Thomas James over Thomas Henry
