Noah, Elliot or Harrison?

We're down to these three (we think).

The bad points that I see with each is that Noah is huuugely popular which puts me off a bit.

Elliot has the whole Eliot/Elliott/Elliott misspelling potential.

Harrison would be shortened to Harri possibly and there's a good chance his full name would hardly get used...

Anyway, which would you go for? Or any similar suggestions?

Sorry, dislike all of them.

How about Dexter, Jacob or Nathan?

Love Harrison. Elliot is one of those names that gives me the heebiejeebies. Noah is nice but a bit meh.

I love Harrison but there are lots of all three of those names around at the moment.

It's made me smile how different opinions are - I shouldn't really have expected a consensus I suppose!

How about Dexter, Jacob or Nathan?

We have a very close friend called Nathan which would seem weird and i'm not keen on Dexter. And we've already used Jacob Grin

Elliot is my favourite.

I know a dexter who is naughty so puts me off lol, Jacob I like and I have a nephew called Nathan

Love Harrison, and Harri.

Noah

Elliot.

Noah
There are 3 Elliotts at preschool.

Prefer Harris to Harrison

Please, not Harri! At least spell this - Harry.

I think Harry is the best of the three names, but Harrison does sound like a surname. Noah is okay but in danger of being currently overused and I generally don't like mens' names that start with E for some (probably whimsical) reason.

Why not Harri? It's a very popular name in Wales in its own right (it's the Welsh spelling of Harry).
