We like too many names, it's ridiculous. We seriously don't have a favourite...

I thought I'd turn it into a little game, that you can help with! Please tell me your favourite and least favourite, I'll then put those into separate piles; if someone then likes the opposite, it'll go back - it makes sense in my head! So, what's your favourite and least favourite (pick only 1).

You could squeeze 32 names on a form if you had very tiny writing.... Grin

Does looking up meanings help rule any in or out? E.g. Matthew, Jonathan, Nathaniel all mean 'gift' which I like. If Brodie turned out to mean 'warty cave-dweller' that might put you off! I'm sure it doesn't, but you get my drift.

I only like Daniel

PamelaPatriciaYouCanCallMePam · 01/05/2016 19:50

I have to have four favourites as four of my sons are on your list: Samuel, Jacob, Alexander and Benjamin. Least favourite is Alfie. There are too many of them and it always reminds me of the goon off EastEnders. I also know a few dogs called Alfie...

ANewLittleBoy · 01/05/2016 19:52

Patrick and Johnny are now out! I think it's 29 names left now! Wink he doesn't suit a name, like everyone told me he would, so that doesn't help!

NotSpartacus · 01/05/2016 19:53
