We are still struggling to decide on a boy's name for if our baby due in a week is a boy. Recently we have been thinking about Gabriel. What are people's thoughts? Too much teasing potential? Would Gabe be inevitable? Our other choices are James, Samuel or Theodore.

I don't know any Gabriel's that get called Gay-all Gabe or just Gabriel Smile

I like it a lot, actually. Reminds me of Matthias Schoenaerts as Gabriel Oak in Far from the Madding Crowd.

My Gabriel is 19 now. It's a beautiful name and he's never mentioned being teased.

I love Gabriel - I used to look after a little boy with the name, and his nickname was Gabe which I always think it's really cute

I love this name, suggested it for our baby but my hubby doesn't like it 😔

I went to school with a Gabriel. He was never bullied. It's a lovely name.
