I love Benedict / Benedykt.

I have a Gabriel and so love that too. Gabriel is a name that works in most cultures, I find. Congratulations! x

A lovely set of names, so it's hard to choose! I think Artur Gabriel just edges it for me. And congratulations!

Jakub, because that's DS's friend's name and he's lovely Smile

It's a nice list of names, you can't go wrong really.

Aleksander or Benedykt - I have Gabriel as a middle name for DS2 but wish I'd held out for it as a first name!

Congratulations!

I think Teodor is fab - nn Teo or Ted, depending on how much you want to Anglicise it.

Gabriel's lovely too, and probably works best in the UK in terms of people getting spelling and pronunciation right.

I don't like Bruno or Olaf; the others are OK but he will spend his entire life correcting spelling and pronunciation. (admittedly Teodor woudn't be without it's problems on that score, but I've just slightly fallen in love with it Grin )
