I prefer Andrew. But that might be that I've got brothers called Russell and Andrew - I think they go really well and I'm especially delighted to see Russell being used!

Anthony

Think about what shortened versions you like for the future
Andy
Anth
Tony
May help you decide!!

Anthony, definitely !

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 07/10/2016 19:54

Andrew

hollyisalovelyname · 07/10/2016 19:57

I just think of Anthony in The Royle Family and the way Sue Johnston( Baabrah) used to say - 'Our Antony'
In Dublin it would be shortened to Anto (pronounced Antoe).
I like both Andrew and Anthony.

RiverTam · 07/10/2016 19:59

Well, I prefer Anthony to Andrew, but Andy to Tony. Are you intending to use the full name?

shaggedthruahedgebackwards · 07/10/2016 19:59

I prefer Andrew

Aoibhe · 07/10/2016 20:00

Andrew. It just has a beautiful flow to it.... So soft.

crayfish · 07/10/2016 20:06

Andrew definitely. I like Drew for short and Andy is ok. All the Anthony's I know ended up as Tony which I don't like.

Well done on picking two good solid underused names though!

WeArePregnant11 · 07/10/2016 20:07

I really like the name Andrew.

OutnumberedbyFurchesters · 07/10/2016 20:10

Anthony with the sibling name.

CPtart · 07/10/2016 20:27

Andrew (and my brother is Russell!)

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 07/10/2016 20:42

How about Jack ? 😂

BeastofCraggyIsland · 07/10/2016 21:14

Andrew, it's a lovely name.

booellesmum · 07/10/2016 21:18

Andrew.
My DH's name - and his brother is Anthony so this made me smile.
DH was always a Drew as a child but now a definate Andrew.

Sophronia · 07/10/2016 23:45

Andrew, but I like both.

DramaAlpaca · 07/10/2016 23:46

Andrew
